Dooratwa (English: Distance) is a 1981 Bengali film directed and written by Buddhadev Dasgupta. [1] [2] It won the National film award for best feature film in Bengali.
(P. Mukherjee), marries a young woman, Anjali. When the former rebel learns that Anjali is pregnant from another relationship, he leaves her. He also refuses shelter to a Naxalite on the run. The lonely teacher forms a relationship with another woman, who is a Personal secretary in a business firm and her insane mother, but class differences prevent this from going any further. In the end, he finds that the woman he rejected is mature enough to accept him as a friend and their relationship shows renewed promise as he tries to shed his prejudices. The film continued the Bengali cinema's fascination with the Naxalite uprising of the late 60s and 70s, often using symbolic imagery as in the opening shot of a newly paved VIP road and the commentary linking the annihilation of ‘troublemakers’ with the ‘beautification’ of the city. The film recalled aspects of Ray's 70s Calcutta films in its extensive use of silence and its consistently lyrical emphasis on the protagonist's subjectivity.

Kaalbela is a 2009 Bengali film directed by Goutam Ghose. The film stars Parambrata Chatterjee, Paoli Dam, Soumitra Chatterjee and Santu Mukherjee. This film is set against the background of the Naxalite movement. Based on a 1980s novel by Samaresh Majumdar, the film sets itself up, quite self-consciously, within a certain tradition of films, namely radical political Bengali cinema of the 1970s and 1980s. It thus establishes an intertextuality and a certain connection with them. By situating itself and the story it has to tell, within this matrix of the 1970s radical Bengali cinema, Ghose anchors the film squarely within that time. The mood and the events certainly, but even the way black and white shots are used, underlines a somewhat documentary – and thus temporally limited – way these sequences are put to use.Mixed Response at Indian Box office.
