Kolkata: Award-winning filmmaker and Chartered Accountant Arindam Bhattacharya has announced the launch of Matrix One, a premium Bengali OTT platform slated to debut in the second half of 2026, marking his entry into the fast-evolving digital entertainment space.
Backed by Bhattacharya’s production banner Dreamliner Entertainment, Matrix One aims to build a curated content ecosystem focused on premium storytelling and family-oriented entertainment. The production house has previously delivered feature films including Antarleen, Flat No. 609, Antardhaan, Shibpur, and Durgapur Junction.
Positioning itself as a quality-first platform, Matrix One plans to focus on a selective content slate designed to meet global production standards while retaining regional storytelling authenticity.
The OTT platform will offer a broad mix of original and curated content categories including web series, feature films, short films, travel content, food and culinary programming, lifestyle shows, and health and fitness formats.
Matrix One will debut with Arindam Bhattacharya’s first web series, Shibpur – the prequel, expanding the universe of his 2023 critically acclaimed film Shibpur. The launch slate will also feature Bhattacharya’s latest feature film Durgapur Junction, starring Vikram Chatterjee and Swastika Mukherjee, along with web series Dugga by Sayan Banerjee and a web film directed by Atanu Ghosh.
Beyond contemporary entertainment, Matrix One plans to introduce a dedicated Classics segment focused on acquiring and restoring landmark films from the past. The initiative aims to preserve cinematic heritage and create a digital archive showcasing Bengali and Indian cinema for future audiences.
Bhattacharya brings a dual background in corporate leadership and filmmaking to the venture. Before moving into cinema full-time in 2016, he spent nearly two decades in senior global leadership roles across organisations including RPG Spencer’s, GE and HP Agilent. Since transitioning to filmmaking, his work has earned multiple Filmfare and WBFJA recognitions, with Shibpur receiving acclaim for redefining the Bengali underworld genre.
Speaking about the launch, Arindam Bhattacharya said, “Matrix One is the culmination of my experience in both corporate governance and creative storytelling. We are building a platform rooted in financial discipline and administrative excellence to provide a sustainable home for high-quality, impactful Bengali content.”
With its launch expected later in 2026, Matrix One is positioning itself as a premium destination for viewers seeking sophisticated Bengali storytelling, curated entertainment experiences and preserved cinematic heritage under a single digital platform.
