Pett Kata Shaw is a 2022 Bangladeshi horror web series written and directed by Nuhash Humayun.[1] The series was released on online video-on-demand platform Chorki. Sohail Mondal, Shirin Akter Shila, Afzal Hossain, Chanchal Chowdhury, Pritom Hasan and Novera Rahman acted in the lead roles. The series presents modern retellings of traditional Bengali folktales passed down from generation to generation.[2]
It will have its international premiere as part of the official selection at the International Film Festival Rotterdam in 2023.[3]
Shah Nahian of The Business Standard criticised its first episode but praised the storytelling ability and music of the web series.[4] Fatin Hamama from The Daily Star said, "All things considered, Pett Kata Shaw definitely did reinvent Bangladeshi horror, a genre that's been woefully under-explored until now".[5]
