Sudipto Sen, the internationally acclaimed National Film Award–winning filmmaker behind the unprecedented blockbuster The Kerala Story (2023), is producing Charak.

With Charak, Sen aims to ignite a national conversation, challenging comfort zones while remaining firmly grounded in lived grassroots realities of India.

Charak is directed by Shieladitya Moulik. Renowned film producer Rajesh Bhatt serves as the Associate Producer, Amarnath Jha as the Creative Director, while the screenplay is written by Farauq Malik shaping the film’s overarching creative vision and thematic depth.

The announcement marks the beginning of a cinematic journey into largely unexplored territory, one that is rarely approached with restraint and sensitivity. Without revealing plot details, Charak hints at a film that delves into the fragile intersections of belief, consequence, and human frailty.

Speaking about the film, Sudipto Sen, Producer and Principal of Sipping Tea Cinemas, shared “Faith has the ability to heal, inspire, and destroy. CHARAK explores how faith creates and destroys. The boundary between devotion is blurred, where life and death make no judgments. The film exists in that uncomfortable space between belief and consequence, where humanity is tested in silence.”

Rather than presenting itself as a conventional narrative, Charak is designed to unfold gradually within a cinematic universe, allowing its ideas to resonate beyond the screen.

The makers emphasize that this is only a title announcement, and that the film’s multi-layered narrative will be revealed in due course.
