The official poster of Raghu Dakat unveiled
The poster of Raghu Dakat has been unveiled, setting the stage for one of the biggest cinematic events of this festive season. The film, directed by Dhrubo Banerjee, brings to life the legendary outlaw whose name once echoed across Bengal as both a figure of fear and reverence.
In the striking first look, Dev appears in a never-before-seen avatar as Raghu Dakat — charging forward on horseback, eyes ablaze and weapon raised. The image captures the essence of a man fuelled by vengeance, bound by destiny, and destined to transcend into myth.
The poster hints at a sweeping tale of rebellion, sacrifice, and justice, with Banerjee reimagining the historical folk figure on an epic scale. The actor’s powerful transformation has already sparked excitement among fans, who are calling the look one of his most commanding portrayals to date.
By blending Bengal’s folklore with cinematic grandeur, Raghu Dakat positions itself as a festival release that promises both spectacle and emotional depth.
