Job Charnoker Bibi (1978) Soumitra Chatterjee Documentary Bangla Movie
Direction: Jayanta Bhattacharya
Story: Dr. Pratapchahdra Chandra
Music Direction: Sudhin Sasgupta
Lyric: Sudhin Dasgupta
Playback Singers: Asha Bhosle, Sumita Mukherjee, Gouri Shrimati, .

300 hundred years back, the employee of East India Company Job Charnok, established our beloved city Calcutta (Kolkata). He fell in love with a hindu red-light zone worker (potita)! He stopped “sati daha” of a poor bramhin even in that old period and finally married that widow. He loved India so much that he never went back to his own country. This movie was dedicated to the first hero of Calcutta.

This movie was the first production of “Anirban Pictures”.

Soumitra Chatterjee plays the role of Jab Charnak. Well, I am going to judge this film as it is sort of a documentary. I hope that you all enjoy the movie.

Sajani Go Sajani is another good direction by Tarun Majumdar. This time we see Sanjob Dasgupta and Mahesweta Roy playing the leading roles. Anup Kumar and Utpal Dutta are at their best. We also have great music composition by V. Valsara and awsome playback voice by Sabina Yasmin, Kumar Sanu, Sibaji Banerjee and so on.

You should enjoy the movie a lot.

Parashmani is one of the good melodramatic movies made in Bengali movie industry. Tapas Pal was somewhat slim and performed well in the film. You also have melodrama gurus like Kali Banerjee and Sukhen Das in this film. I love all Tarun Majumdar movies so I would recommend all to watch the film.
