Loved Uro Chithi - the August '11 film sporting an ensemble cast, by debutant Kamaleswar Mukherjee.
It's a story of one year in the life of techie Aniket caught in rough weather during the last recession - capturing abut various people in his life. The ensemble cast with Indraneil (the protagonist), Saswata, Sudipta, Rudranil, Biswanath (The surprise package), Sreelekha, Biswajit, Locket, Reshmi, Tanusree and others is spot on. Everyone was just perfect for their roles. Tight script, good storytelling, superb performances and good music make it a recommendation.
Waited long for Uro Chithi. And it was worth it! Loved the doctor-turned-adman-turned-director Kamaleswar's dialogue (especially the witty one liners) in Natobor Not Out last year. Looking forward to his next work.
The flavour of Kolkata
The city is known for its old alleys. One such is shot by Atanu Pal.
You make this sound like a 'must watch'. Bengali movies are bringing quite a number of surprises these days.
ReplyDeleteYeah, as evident, I recommend it! Bangla cinema brought a lot of surprises in 2010, and the trend is going on strongly in 2011.
