Directed by acclaimed filmmaker Arindam Sil, Korpur has already been making waves since its theatrical release on March 19, 2026. Mahima Chaudhry’s presence at the screening highlighted cross-industry support, as she was seen warmly interacting with Rituparna Sengupta and appreciating the film’s intense storytelling and production quality.
Korpur is a gripping political thriller rooted in real-world inspired events and systemic corruption. The story draws from Dipanwita Roy’s novel Antardhaner Nepothye, which revolves around the mysterious disappearance of Manisha Mukhopadhyay, an assistant controller of examinations at Calcutta University. The narrative unfolds across timelines, exposing buried truths, media manipulation, and political silence.
The film revisits a haunting 1997 case involving Moushumi Sen, a university exam controller who vanished during a massive financial scandal. While public narratives suggested she fled abroad, deeper investigation within the story reveals a far more complex and disturbing political conspiracy. Years later, an investigative journalist reopens the case, triggering a chain of revelations that shake the system.
Produced by Firdausul Hasan, Prabal Halder, and Adipta Majumder under Friends Communication and Kahhak Studios, the film blends investigative drama with hard-hitting political commentary. It also marks the debut of political figure Kunal Ghosh in cinema, adding further intrigue to its already layered narrative.
Videos from the screening show Mahima Chaudhry and Rituparna Sengupta sharing candid moments, discussing the film, and praising its execution. Their interaction reflects growing appreciation for regional cinema that continues to push boundaries with strong storytelling and bold themes.
With its intense subject matter and powerful performances, Korpur stands out as a politically charged thriller that goes beyond entertainment to explore truth, power, and silence within institutional systems.
