Produced by Sudipto Sen, best known for The Kerala Story, Charak: Fair of Faith explores the many dimensions of belief. The song is soulfully rendered by Bishakh Jyoti and Kinjal Chatterjee, whose powerful vocals elevate the spiritual fervour of the track.

Anant has penned the soulful lyrics. Composed by Bishakh Jyoti, the song creates an atmosphere charged with faith and divine energy, perfectly aligning with the film’s core theme. Rooted deeply in devotion and spiritual intensity, “Ghor Aghor” celebrates unwavering belief, surrender, and the powerful emotion that defines the spirit of the Charak festival.

Composer and Singer Bishakh Jyoti shared, “When I first received the brief for this song from producer Sudipto da and director Shieladitya, we knew it demanded thorough research, especially since it is rooted in the Charak festival and Bengal’s traditional folk music. Most of these songs are centuries old, and given how sensitive Bengalis are about their music, it felt like a huge responsibility. I was nervous initially, but the constant support from the entire team, made the process smooth and fulfilling. We were also searching for a fresh voice, and when Kinjal Chatterjee recorded the track, the entire team instantly felt he was the perfect fit.”

Charak, starring Anjali Patil, Sahidur Rahaman, Subrat Dutta, Shashi Bhushan, Nalneesh Neel, Shankhadeep, and Shounak Shyamal, delves into real-life situations involving blind faith and occult practices in India’s hinterlands.

Presented by Dr. Jayantilal Gada (PEN Studios), the film is slated to hit cinemas on March 6, 2026. Directed by Shieladitya Moulik, Charak is produced by Sipping Tea Cinemas, in association with Sudipto Sen Productions, with Rajesh Bhatt serving as the associate producer.

Charak was screened in front of a packed auditorium in at Cannes 2025, and the response has been overwhelmingly positive. Critics praised the film, describing it as a remarkable vision from the filmmaker. Regarding Sudipto Sen, a few critics have noted that he is one of the most promising filmmakers in India.

Furthermore, in light of Charak’s incredible response at Cannes, Sudipto Sen stated, “I’m delighted to see Charak receiving such a fantastic response at Cannes 2025. It is a victory for our Indian culture, demonstrating to the world the power and significance of our mythology. The incredible response at Cannes adds even more weight to its thought-provoking story.

Furthermore, the Charak narrative is based on the darkly intense Charak Puja, which is observed in parts of the Bengal, Bihar and Odhisa areas and explores how some misguided acts performed in the name of devotion can sometimes cross the boundaries of humanity, bordering on evil.

By examining the “folklore horror” genre in a novel way, Charak hopes to provoke discussion about inherited trauma, blind faith, and the price of silence in societies that are overwhelmingly patriarchal. Stories with local cultural interpretations, such as Kantara and Charak, are well-liked worldwide.

Produced by Sudipto Sen, Charak is directed by #ShieladityaMoulik. Sanjay Halder is the story writer. The film is made under the banners of Sipping Tea Cinemas and Sudipto Sen Productions.
