Interview is 1971 Bengali film directed by noted Indian art film director Mrinal Sen. A path-breaking film in terms of the narrative innovation and cinematic technique, it was a commercial success and went to run for six weeks amidst gushing admiration and accolades, when it was screened first. Ranjit Mallick is a smart personable young man. A friend of the family, who works in a foreign firm, has assured him of a lucrative job in his firm. All Ranjit has to do is to appear in an interview, dressed in a western style suit. It seems a simple task, but fate decides otherwise. A strike by a labour union means that he can't get his suit back from the laundry. His father's old suit won't fit him. He borrows a suit, but loses it in a fracas. Ultimately he has to go to the interview dressed in the traditional Bengali dhoti and kurta.
