What happens

Nari Choritro Bejay Jotil (Bengali pronunciation: [nari tʃoritro bedʒaɪ ʤoʈil]; transl. Female natures are very complex) is a 2026 Indian Bengali-language fantasy comedy film directed by Sumeet–Saahil. Produced by Ankush Hazra and Sani Ghose Ray under the banner of Ankush Hazra Motion Pictures and Acropoliis Entertainment respectively, the film stars Ankush and Oindrila Sen in their fifth pairing, alongside an ensemble cast of, Debraj Bhattacharya, Sohini Sengupta, Sohag Sen, Ipshita Mukherjee and Nabanita Malakar. It follows an unexpected turn in a man's life after he suddenly gains the ability to read women's minds and embarks on a therapeutic journey towards greater empathy and understanding. Written by Sreejib, the core concept of the film is inspired by American film What Women Want (2000). Announced in February 2025, the film shares its title with Kishore Kumar's song from the 1981 film Ogo Bodhu Shundori, marking the second collaboration between Sumeet–Saahil and Ankush. Principal Photography commenced in March 2025 and wrapped by in July 2025, making as one of the shortest periods in which a Bengali film has been shot. Music of the film is composed by Ishan Mitra, B Show and Avishek Saha, while Animesh Ghorui and Sanglap Bhowmik handled its cinematography and editor respectively. Nari Choritro Bejay Jotil was theatrically released on 9 January 2026, coinciding with Sankranti. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
