mformoviesandmore This is the first Indian movie if have ever watch all of the way through - enticed to it by the IMDb rating.The basic premise is a of serial killings and the police work to try to find the culprit. Usually this kind of movie would have tense moments, a climactic end and hopefully some twists and turns along the way.Instead, this movie had three musical montages! Maybe these are prerequisites in modern Indian cinema. The first montage certainly had a wide variety o settings - far greater than the rest of the movie, or than were needed. Those montages felt strangely out of place to me. I half-expected the cast to start dancing.The acting also came across as over-blown - of a standard found in a low budget straight-to-DVD production. Again, and based on reading the other reviews, perhaps this is the approach taken in Indian cinema. It is reminiscent of silent movie stars.I won't reveal the ending - but that too felt like something out of that aforementioned DVD style.I enjoyed the basic premise and the cinematography. And I enjoyed some of the sights of India. Otherwise it was a mediocre experience with a flat ending.

arijitbhaduri I had the good fortune of watching this movie on Television and was astounded by it's profoundness. The movie recounts the attempt of a frustrated Police Officer Probir Roy Choudhary (Prosenjit)to be accepted back in the Police Force. Abhijit Pakrashi (Parambarta) a young police officer has been asked to solve a series of murders carried out according to verses in Bengali Poetry. The verses allude to a period in Bengali poetry called "The Hungry Generation Movement"; a period characterized by rejection of conventional poetic canons and a return to the closeness of nature. Nibaron Chakraborty (Gautam Ghosh) is a struggling poet trying to keep the spirit of the Hungry Generation alive. Needless to say, this is a frustrated attempt as publishers continue to reject his offerings. The director keeps these two strands of stories moving at parallel tracks and towards the end a denouement occurs when the two tracks collide resulting in the young Police Officer understanding that to belong and be accepted can drive a person to taking flawed and morally ambiguous decisions. The movie doesn't give any easy answers. Both the main characters Gautam Ghosh and Prasenjit make brave attempts to stand out and be different but in the end are forced to compromise.A brave attempt and definitely deserves commendation for excellent story telling.

Sam Mukhopadhyay I must say that it definitely scores over Srijit Mukherjee's last film 'Autograph'. It has some very bright performances from Prosenjit Chatterjee, Raima Sen, Abir Chatterjee and Rajesh Sharma. But one man who easily scores over everyone else is Goutam Ghose. He truly shines as the poetic-minded hardcore intellectual of a by-gone era. As for Parambrata I found it a little hard to imagine him as a tough cop. However his acting is believable.The plot has a couple of good surprises that are hard to predict. The story intermingles very well with the plot. The story-telling involves some non-linear sequences as well.(I would love to see more of these non-linear sequences in his future work)The screenplay is very bold. Its the first time I heard so much cursing in a Bangla film. However I still think that it needed a little more polishing(just my humble opinion).The cinematography is quite good and in a couple of scenes it really stands out. My personal favorite being the first scene where the director successfully captures the eeriness of a north-kolkata gully at night. The climax also has a very unique Ram Gopal Varma-ish kind of camera angle in it.All-In-All a considerably intelligent watch considering the usual play-with-your-emotions masala Bengali/Hindi fare.

Shantanu Singha Baishe Srabon, a magnificent movie with simple script but holds you in your seats. Every actor is mind-blowing, and talking about Prosenjit- never once in my mind had I thought that he would be such a pleasure to watch. Prosenjitda is really talented. His acting skills -(minus) his dramewali crying and 'tollywood style' revenge = a perfect blend. And the movie was worth watching, a real pleasure. A movie that talks about obsession. I promise that from next time onwards I will watch Prosenjitda's movie if he chooses scripts like this, and by 'I' , I mean every person who never thought that Prosenjit could act so flawlessly.
