Chirodini ... Tumi Je Amar (English: You Are Mine Eternally), also known by the initialism CTJA is a 2008 Indian Bengali language romantic drama film written and directed by Raj Chakraborty, making his directional debut and produced by Shrikant Mohta under the banner of Shree Venkatesh Films. Based on the Rizwanur - Priyanka case (2007),[2] the film stars Rahul Banerjee and Priyanka Sarkar in lead roles, both of them making their cinematic debut, while Rudranil Ghosh, Geeta Dey, Tamal Roychowdhury, Rita Koiral, Tulika Basu, Supriyo Dutta, Prasun Gain, Parthasarathi Chakraborty, Debranjan Nag, Pradip Dhar, Subhomoy Chatterjee and Pradip Bhattacharya played supporting roles. Sabyasachi Chakraborty gave his voice in the film, playing the narrator and Dev made a cameo appearance in the song "Pante taali". The soundtrack of the film was composed by Jeet Gannguli, while the screenplay and dialogues were by N.K Salil. It plots a tragic love story between a 18 years old student Pallabi and a two-wheeler mechanic Krishna from Siliguri. Ecaping from her home, she goes to Kolkata with Krishna and gets married off. But Pallavi's family tracks them and brings them to Siliguri and all on a sudden brutally hits Krishna. After a long time, fate reunites them, where Pallavi is married with another man, having a child and Krishna has already gone mad due to his brain injury.
The name of the film was taken from the song of the same name composed by Bappi Lahiri and sung by Kishore Kumar, from the Prosenjit Chatterjee starrer blockbuster filmAmar Sangi (1987). After a long time, CTJA brought the trend of teen-age films in Bengali cinema and started a new era. Considered to be an all time blockbuster at the box office, it completed a 25 week long run in theatres and also eventually established Raj Chakraborty as a leading filmmaker in the industry.[citation needed]
