1/10
very poor work.
22 June 2013
I am going to be honest. I have seen at least more than 200 bengali culture based movies in both bengali and Hindi languages from all ages, of all authors. And I am myself fan of many bengali authors. This was one of my biggest disappointments. First - The story is ill directed, based on adultery, Tagore has done great work in Charulata, Ghare Baire. But both had certain direction. In fact this was one of worst work of Tagore , where in entire movie I kept wondering where it is going? A story does not have to have direction - for example - Apur Sansar, but it all makes sense when it ends. It is story of Apu at least. But this one - tells nothing.

Second - Offering Bengali culture - no , again you won't get much more than other movies in both Bengali and Hindi I have seen. The scenes are very swallow. Not made with depth.

Third- Aishwarya - I mean why why why she had to be in the movie? - She just does not go into the character. I kept seeing her and her only in entire movie. She does not fit into the character from any angle. Her body language. I tried to remember Kiron Kher, She does not know bengali and someone dubbed for her. And it totally worked. But for Aishwarya it failed. She fails as badly as Lisa roy failed in water to portray a sad widow.

Fourth - Complete lack of leaving an impression as a good movie - Movie goes very slow for no good reasons. Best acting offered by Sen, lily and the guy who played bihari. Others failed to impress. It won't enjoy it watching - direction, story and acting wise. Unless you are fan of Rituporno and Aishwarya.
