Shathe Shathyang (Bengali pronunciation: [ʃɔʈe ʃaʈʰjɔŋ]; transl. Ultimate perfection) is a 1982 Indian Bengali-language action comedy film directed and cinematographed by Dinen Gupta. Produced by Mamata Das under the banner of Jyotirmoy Pictures, the film is based on Anjan Choudhury's serialised story of the same name,[1] published for his edited weekly magazine Chumki.[2][3] It stars Ranjit Mallick in dual roles as identical twin brothers, alongside an ensemble cast of Mahua Roy Chowdhury, Sumitra Mukherjee, Shekhar Chatterjee, Anup Kumar, Dilip Roy and Biplab Chatterjee in another pivotal roles.[4]
Gupta bought the original script of Shathe Shathyang from Choudhury, later collaborating with his frequent screenwriting collaborator Shekhar Chatterjee to modify it. The film marks the fifth collaboration between Gupta and Mallick, and also pairs Mallick and Roy Chowdhury for the third time. Music of the film is composed by Dilip Ganguly, with lyrics penned by Pulak Bandyopadhyay, Shibdas Bandyopadhyay and Choudhury.
Shathe Shathyang was theatrically released on 12 March 1982, coinciding with Pohela Baishakh. Opening to positive reviews, the film became a box-office success and emerged as the highest-grossing Bengali film of 1982. The film's soundtrack album, also became a commercial success, with the song "Amar Moto Emon Chhele" topping the charts. It attained a cult status generally for marking Mallick's return to the action genre, after a long time.[5][6]
