**English Translation:** **Bankimchandra's 'Devi Chaudhurani' now brought to life as a graphic novel by Antarip Comics.** Although young Prafulla is married, she is deprived of her husband's companionship. After her father's death, a conspiracy arises to sell the helpless Prafulla into a brothel. However, this plot is foiled by the powerful and formidable bandit leader, Bhavani Pathak.
