Daab Chingri

This is a very good movie. The storyline is not very much good but the concept of the story is amazing. I recommend all of you please watch this movie

A bunch of senior citizens want to remain relevant and use their entrepreneurial skills effectively. They float an initiative called "Thakuma'r Handi" from their common kitchen at the old age home they live in and supply meals to homes, often finding it difficult to cope up due to their own physical limitations. However their resilience, culinary skills, adaptability and power to overcome their health related issues will be tested significantly when their caretaker falls ill and is hospitalized, resulting in unplanned and unprecedented expenditure. Despite their hardships they have to consider scaling up their operations and expanding their reach through a few large orders, facing challenges that are physical, financial and even competitive in nature.

Daab Chingri is a bittersweet tale of determination and independence of its protagonists in their twilight years. The running time of 82 minutes is well utilized keeping the treatment lighthearted yet reasonably relevant. Sandhya Roy, Paran Bandopadhyay, Isha Saha and Saaheb Bhattacharjee keep the narrative engaging in this endearing plot written and directed by Sudeep Das.
