Baishe Srabon

Writer-director Srijit Mukherjee's another masterpiece. Though this film is of the genre 'who-done-it' type thrillers, still there was enough drama and twists in the plot to keep you riveted to your seat. The film is a welcome change from the usual Indian musicals. Instead of stopping the pace of the movie, songs are used as background score and only used in parts in the movie. You have to purchase the soundtrack CD to listen to them in full. Excellent acting by veteran actor Prosenjit and special kudos to Goutam Ghosh for portrayal of the 'Hungryalist' poets of Kolkata of 50's. But Abhijit Pakrashi portrayed by Parambrata did not gel fit the requirements of brilliant and best inspector of Kolkata police department. He was a wimp who only can show anger in wrong places and flash his police badge to get undue advantages every now and then. In smaller roles Abir and Raima did excellent. Excellent music courtesy Anupam Roy. Bodhaditya Banerjee served justice with the scissors to match with the pace of the movie. Final Verdict - must watch!!
