Bipasha is a 1962 Indian Bengali-language drama film starring Uttam Kumar and Suchitra Sen. and directed by Agradoot. The film is based on a novel titled Bipasha by Sri Tarashankar Bandyopadhay.The story fleetingly describes the horror of riots in West Pakistan during the time of Partition of India. Bipasa was described as a victim of that riot in the film. However, the film deviates from the original novel and avoids describing Bipasha as a gang rape victim by Pakistani Islamist rioters.
It is one of the many hit films in which Uttam Kumar and Suchitra Sen worked as a pair. The other cast members included Chhabi Biswas, Chhaya Devi, Pahari Sanyal, Jiben Bose and Tulsi Chakrabarti.
