Filmmaker Vivek Agnihotri has renamed his upcoming political drama 'The Delhi Files' on public demand. He shared the new poster of the film based on 1940s communal violence in undivided Bengal on social media. Agnihotri also announced the teaser release date of the new movie from his "Files" trilogy.

The filmmaker, who had earlier shared an announcement video of his film titled 'The Delhi Files: The Bengal Chapter', has now renamed it as 'The Bengal Files: Right to Life.'

It marks the third instalment in Agnihotri's "Files" trilogy, following ‘The Tashkent Files’ (2019) and ‘The Kashmir Files’ (2022). 'The Bengal Files: Right to Life' is based on events like Direct Action Day and the Noakhali riots. Agnihotri has described these incidents as a "Hindu genocide" and aims to shed light on this often overlooked chapter of Indian history.

The film features a stellar cast, including Mithun Chakraborty, Anupam Kher, Darshan Kumar, Pallavi Joshi, and is scheduled for theatrical release on September 5, 2025.
