User Reviews

Sandip Ray did not disappoint us.

Especially after his father, the celebrated Satyajit Ray did the classic treats to Feluda in two films, Sandip Ray must have felt the surge of high expectations on this third Feluda project. The Feluda stories, penned by Ray Sr. himself, are still bestsellers among Bengali early-teen fiction. Sandip Ray sensed the screen potentials of this particular story well and evidently made this film with immense passion for his father's work.

Well, he may not have his father's rich artistic vision, nor could he be able to put enough wit and originality into the screenplay, but he certainly knows how to make a film entertaining. He changed the story subtly in some places and most notably, he was able to infiltrate more amounts of 'action' element into the story and that became certainly one of its plus points. On his side, he got Sabyasachi Chakravarthy who's probably a better Feluda than Soumitra Chatterjee whom Ray Sr. worked with. Sabyasachi's got more sharpness in his appearance as described in the stories. The other cast members also did a nice job except Bibhu Bhattacharya who is a pathetic choice for the role of Jatayu.

The fans of Feluda, as well as casual viewers, would certainly enjoy the film. I hope Sandip Ray would carry on with this standard for his next Feluda project that we're eagerly looking forward to.
