★ FEATURE
Biography
Pratim D. Gupta is an Indian screenwriter, film director, and journalist who built his reputation critiquing and then creating Bengali-language cinema. Born 11 November 1981, he began his career as a film critic for The Telegraph, then moved to Film Companion, where he developed a sharp eye for narrative structure and performance. His directorial debut, Paanch Adhyay (2012), starred Priyanshu Chatterjee and Dia Mirza and announced a filmmaker interested in psychological depth over spectacle. Subsequent films—Shaheb Bibi Golaam (2016), Maacher Jhol (2017), and Chaalchitro - The Frame Fatale (2024)—solidified his standing among critics as a writer-director unafraid of complex source material and moral ambiguity. As a Scorpio born in the Life Path 5 numerology (the Communicator), Gupta's work reflects his sign's obsessive attention to hidden motives and his numerological gift for translating ideas across mediums—from print criticism to visual narrative. Screenwriters typically move between drafting dialogue, structuring plot, and collaborating with directors and producers; Gupta's dual role as writer-director gives him full authorial control over adaptation and tone. Working in Indian cinema, particularly in Bengali regional film, places his output within a tradition that values literary prestige and ensemble performance.
