Early life

edit

Pratik was born in Kolkata, India to Anuradha Sen. He grew up in Deoghar, Jharkhand. His family has a history of association with the film industry. He is the grandson of Bijalibaran Sen (Director of the 1961 Bengali Film "Manik") and Amar Dutta (lead actor of Bengali film "SubhashChandra") and great-grandson of Debaki Kumar Bose (Director of the Bengali Film "Seeta").[1]

Careers

edit

Pratik started his career with the South Eastern Railways in India. He was three times state-level boxing champion in heavy-weight category between 2002 and 2004. He quit boxing to pursue a career as an actor.[1]

Film career

edit

Pratik made his acting debut in 2009 with the film Amar Bodyguard directed by Haranath Chakraborty. The release of Amar Bodyguard was delayed, hence, Prem Bandhan became his first release in a lead role in 2009.[2] His next Bengali films were Om Shanti,[3] Passport[4] and Dekha Hulo Dujonay.[5]

In 2015, he worked with late Bappaditya Bandyopadhyay[6] in Sohra Bridge[7][8] which was an official selection in the Indian Panorama section at the 46th International Film Festival of India.[9]

He then appeared in Clapstick[10] and Chol Kuntal[11] in lead roles, where he shared screen space with two thespians, Soumitra Chatterjee and Deepankar De.[12][13][14]

In 2018, Pratik starred alongside Rituparna Sengupta in Tarun Majumdar's Bhalobasar Bari[15][16] where he played the lead. The film went onto complete 50 days at the box office.[17] He worked once again with Rituparna in the Sujit Paul film Atithi.[18][19][20]

Television career

edit

Pratik made his television debut on Star Jalsha in the 2016 comedy-drama Khokababu[21] by Blues Productions where he portrayed the titular character. He was paired opposite Trina Saha, who also made her debut with the serial. His portrayal of 'Khoka', an innocent wrestler with strong family ties won him his first Government of West Bengal Tele Academy Award for Best Actor.

After Khokababu, he took a break from television.

In 2019, he returned to television with Magic Moments Motion Pictures family drama Mohor[22] as the male protagonist. His portrayal of the emotionally complex character, 'Shankhodip Ray Chowdhury (Shankho)' won him his second Government of West Bengal Tele Academy Award for Best Actor.[23]

His next show was Acropoliis Entertainment's Shaheber Chithi where he was the lead.[24][25][26] In February 2023, he joined the cast of Magic Moments Motion Pictures serial Ekka Dokka in a cameo role but went onto play a parallel lead role as the story progressed.

After a 8-month hiatus, Pratik returned to the small screen in May 2024 with Surinder Films serial "Uraan"[27] as the lead with debutante, Ratnapriya Das. The teaser promo was released by Star Jalsha on 23 April 2024.

He hosted the culinary show ‘Bhojohari Ranna’,[28] produced by Rana Sarkar[29] for OTT platform, Dhoomketu.
