Jole Jongole is a 2018 Bengali-language Indian science fiction thriller film directed by Nitish Roy, who was the production designer [1] for the Hollywood horror film Crocodile 2: Death Swamp.

The film stars Mithun Chakraborty as a 'mad' scientist who wants to bring back prehistoric creatures, perished millions of years ago from the earth as he is trying to expand the brain of crocodiles. Jackie Shroff stars as the antagonist who wants to take control of dangerous crocodiles for his own park.

A few scenes of the film were shot in Prayag Film City in West Midnapore, and shooting was completed by early 2012,[2][3][4] but got stuck in development hell and was finally released on 6 January 2018.

Plot

The film is based on the experiment done by a mad scientist (Mithun) who comes up with a lovable crocodile. Like the dolphins, this crocodile was implanted with intelligence. At this point, an NRI (Jackie) eyes this project as he wants to build his own Jurassic Park and wants to get control on this crocodile.
