Brahmadaitya (2020)
Another pleasant surprise from Bengali indie cinema !
I watched this one after I watched the director's earlier film, K. This one is even better than the last one. A surprise mix of horror and Bengali folktales, with a strong dose of humor thrown in. While the performances are loud and over the top and the make up of the ghost, a bit tacky, the story telling and the back ground score make this an engaging watch. Also, the sheer quirkiness of the plot and funny one liners make this a consistently entertaining watch.
K: Secret Eye (2017)
Surprising underdog of a thriller !
I recently stumbled upon this film on MX player. Had no idea this even existed. Boy, am I glad I watched this ! Sci fi is a genre that is extremely rare in Indian cinema, leave apart Bengali cinema. K is a fast paced, edgy sci fi film with a really strong statement, and a shocking last minute twist. I honestly did not see the twist coming. Yes, the film is rough in the edges. Its apparently a low budget indie. However, the storytelling and the unique plot more than make up for the flaws. It's a pity that films like these do not make any impact in theaters. A must watch.
