The famous Bengali film Beder Meye Jyotsna is returning—but this time, on the small screen. A new TV series based on the legendary movie is being produced by Surinder Films. Popular actors Indrani Pal and Siddharth Sen will be seen in the lead roles for the first time.
Bringing a Classic to Television
In July 2025, the legendary Bangla film Beder Meye Jyotsna is being revived as a television drama. Surinder Films, a well-known production house in Kolkata, is behind the project. This new serial aims to retell the story for the modern generation while keeping the original emotions and folklore alive.
The show will air on a popular Bengali entertainment channel, although the final schedule is yet to be announced. Shooting began in early June in various locations around Kolkata and the Sundarbans. The story follows a magical and emotional journey of love, tradition, and struggle, just like the original film.
For the lead roles, Indrani Pal, known for her graceful screen presence, and Siddharth Sen, a rising star in Bengali TV, will be acting together for the first time. Their chemistry is already being praised based on promotional clips shared on social media.
What People and Experts Are Saying
Entertainment critics have welcomed the idea with mixed feelings. Many fans are excited, calling it a “bold move” to bring such a classic tale to TV. Actress Indrani Pal said in an interview,
“It’s a big responsibility to play Jyotsna. The character is iconic. I’ve studied the original film many times to understand her depth.”
Siddharth Sen shared his excitement too.
“I grew up watching Beder Meye Jyotsna. It feels like a dream to be part of its modern version. We’re trying to give our best.”
Film historian Ritam Bhattacharya told The Telegraph,
“The success of this show will depend on how well they balance nostalgia with innovation. If they can do that, it might become a milestone for Bengali TV.”
Background: The Legacy of ‘Beder Meye Jyotsna’
Originally released in 1989, Beder Meye Jyotsna became one of the highest-grossing Bangla films of its time. It was directed by Tojammel Haque Bokul and featured stars like Ilias Kanchan and Anju Ghosh. The film was based on a popular folk story and touched hearts with its emotional storyline, beautiful music, and strong characters.
Over the decades, it earned a cult status in Bangladesh and West Bengal. It also influenced theatre, folk shows, and stage dramas. The film’s songs are still played during village fairs and folk festivals.
This makes the new adaptation even more challenging. The production team has assured fans that they are treating the project with “great respect and care.”
What to Expect in the Coming Weeks
The trailer of the new series is expected to release by mid-July 2025. The first episode might premiere by the end of the month. As per inside sources, the series will have a modern storytelling style, but the soul of the original film will be preserved.
The serial will also feature new music compositions by popular Bengali musicians. However, the original songs may be reused with updated arrangements.
Viewers can expect fantasy elements, royal drama, emotional moments, and strong performances. If the series becomes popular, there are chances it might get dubbed in Hindi or streamed on OTT platforms like Hoichoi or Zee5.
The production team also hinted at possible cameos by actors from the original film. Though unconfirmed, this could be a delightful surprise for old fans.
Conclusion
The return of Beder Meye Jyotsna as a television drama is creating excitement among Bengali audiences across borders. With a fresh cast, experienced production team, and emotional storytelling, the show has the potential to become another classic. All eyes are now on Surinder Films to see how they bring this folk tale to life again on television.
