The Battle Royale (2025)

A Story of Political Redemption

The Battle Royale tracks Mahua Moitra’s re-election campaign in the high profile constituency of Krishnanagar as she fights for her political survival and redemption. Pitted against Moitra are the BJP’s Amrita Roy – the ‘Rajmata’ of Krishnanagar, and the CPI(M)/INC candidate, S.M. Sadi. The Battle Royale is part of Election Diaries 2024, a series of 9 documentaries produced by CeMIS (Centre for Modern Indian Studies) that reflect the anxieties, the hopes and the resilience of Indian democracy over the 2024 elections.
