Kato Ajanare (1959) is an unfinished Bengali drama film directed by Ritwik Ghatak. The storyline was based on a Bengali novel written by Mani Shankar Mukherjee with the same title. The film was shot on a 20-day schedule. The shooting was complete, except the court scene. The film was discontinued and abandoned for mainly financial and some other problems.
Shooting was arranged in the technician's studio for indoor shooting and Kolkata (then Calcutta) high court area for outdoor shooting. Seven reels were restored later by Ritwik Memorial Trust.
