Kamaleswar Mukherjee, a multifaceted individual possessing the academic distinction of holding a Medical Bachelor's degree, has made a notable impact in the Bengali-language film industry as a director, actor, and physician.
Throughout his career, Mukherjee has helmed a diverse range of films, including the critically acclaimed Chander Pahar, the poignant Meghe Dhaka Tara, the adventurous Amazon Obhijaan, the thought-provoking Anusandhan, and the thrilling Cockpit.
However, Mukherjee's professional pursuits have not been without controversy. On October 3, 2022, he was briefly taken into custody along with eight other Communist Party of India (Marxist) leaders and workers from Rashbehari Avenue in south Kolkata.
The group had gathered to protest alleged vandalism committed by Trinamool Congress (TMC) workers at one of the party's book stalls on October 2, 2022.
