Iti Mrinalini (Bengali: ইতি মৃণালিনী English: Yours Mrinalini; English: An Unfinished Letter) is a critically acclaimed 2011 Indian drama film directed by acclaimed Bengali filmmaker Aparna Sen. The director collaborates with debutant screenwriter Ranjan Ghosh to pen the story and the screenplay, a major first for her. The film has been produced by Shrikant Mohta and Mahendra Soni of Shree Venkatesh Films Pvt Ltd. It is also the first film by Sen to be nationally released in Hindi simultaneously with the Bengali version for her Bengal audience. Many critics consider it among her best work along with Mr. and Mrs. Iyer and 36 Chowringhee Lane.
Aparna Sen returns to make a Bengali film after more than a decade. Her last was Paromitar Ek Din, in 2000. Iti Mrinalini is supposedly the director's first mainstream venture in which she experiments with the popular genre. The much-touted film is on the life and times of a Bengali star-actress of mainstream cinema of yesteryear, who looks back at her life. Aparna Sen plays the older Mrinalini while her daughter Konkona Sen Sharma portrays the younger version.
Sen directs her daughter Konkona Sen Sharma and also acts with her in the same film, another first for the mother-daughter duo that plays the same character. Featuring Sen and her daughter in the lead role, the film also stars Rajat Kapoor, Priyanshu Chatterjee, Kaushik Sen, Locket Chatterjee and German actor Suzanne Bernert in supporting roles. The entire cast, except Konkona, work in an Aparna Sen film for the first time.
