Cinemawala is a 2016 Indian Bengali language film directed by Kaushik Ganguly, and starring Paran Bandyopadhyay and Parambrata Chatterjee.
One night, after returning from Kolkata with a bagful of illegal DVDs, Prakash notices an advertisement in the newspaper about a DVD home theater.
Prakash buys a home theater by selling the golden bangles his mother Kamalini, who now lives separately from Pranabendu, gave to him on hearing of Moumita's pregnancy.
Prakash, along with his business partner Ashim, arranges for the screening of blockbuster cinemas in the DVD home theater during the time of the local fair.
At home, he counsels Prakash to mend his ways if he wishes to make his soon-to-be-born child proud and avoid getting arrested by the police.
The film also emphasizes the lack of proper compensation for artists whose work is distributed without acknowledgment or remuneration by illegal streaming and download sites.
Pranabendu, deeply passionate about cinema, faces a generational divide with his son, Prakash, who engages in the sale of pirated movie CDs.
