Vivek Agnihotri’s “The Bengal Files” Denied Screenings in West Bengal, Sparking Controversy and Presidential Appeal

The release of Vivek Agnihotri’s “The Bengal Files” has been blocked in West Bengal, as multiplex chains have declined to screen it. Producer Pallavi Joshi has written an open letter to the President of India, appealing for assistance to enable the film’s release. In her letter, Joshi states that multiplex chains in Bengal have refused the film’s release due to political pressure and threats from the ruling party. Joshi has requested the President to intervene to protect her constitutional rights and facilitate the film’s release in Bengal.
