Bijoyar Pore is a 2024 Indian Bengali psychological drama film directed by Abhijit SriDas and produced by Sujit Raha under the banner of SR Jupiter Motion Pictures.

Plot
After the grandeur of Durga Puja ends, a family returns to its home, burdened by years of silence and unresolved emotional wounds. When an estranged daughter returns and a tragedy unfolds, they are forced to confront long-buried grief. At the center is Alokananda, a quietly resolute mother whose empathy becomes the thread binding the family’s pain and capacity for healing.

Reception
Suparna Majumder of Sangbad Pratidin reviewed the film and wrote “The director has woven the screenplay for his film about the grief and difficulties that a childless couple face in their senile phase.” She appreciated the topic that the film deals with and the performance of the lead cast but bemoaned the weak direction, extremely poor screenplay, multiple loopholes in the plot in around the four days of Puja, continuity issues, not impalpable reaction of the characters to certain situations, redundant usage of songs and the weak cinematic thinking.[3]
