Somewhat derivative but a nice continuation
17 April 2020
If you loved baisher shrabon you will be somewhat disappointed with this film cause it offers nothing new in the table atleast the first 2 acts. I for one missed Prosenjit in this film which is the biggest drawback cause it should be like a continuation where everything is in a different league altogether but that's what it is missing. The start of the film is reminiscent of other crime films like city of god, Angamaly diaries so nothing new and the starting impression really disappointed me but but... You will not get bored cause there is two of the greatest actors of the Bengali film industry one is Parambrata Chatterjee and the second is anirban bhattacharjya there performance elevated the film and the thing is there is a constant jabs at crime cliches the protagonist talks about you know talking about scottland yard but the cliche they are trying to diminish is actually the fault because they fall into the trap of this same cliche. But again the ending...it will shock you and I think Srijit Mukherjee wanted to create a illusion that the first and second act was just a cliche but the end will be the game changer yeah kind of game changing but ultimately the twist was shocking but again if you finished the film and started to think about it the first and second really somewhat ruined it so the ending doesn't make any impact whatsoever. And the twist which is original... Doesn't make any sense if you think about it maybe it will make sense but the whole thing was convoluted for worse.And the romance is lousy just like Raima Sen said in the film and her arc is tone deaf the new police officer Rajat is a dull character didn't made any impact. Overall the film is passable the technical aspects are nothing to talk about if you know Srijit da's work you know the style is similar. So watch it for the end and then think about it if it is making any sense
