Toofan

"Toofan" presents a promising plot for Bangladeshi cinema. Megastar Shakib Khan, along with Mimi (from Kolkata) and Nabila, have given their best efforts under the direction of Raihan Rafi. While the first half is average, the second half is quite thrilling and maintains a fast pace.

As a director, Raihan Rafi has certainly put in his best effort. However, when compared to global cinema, the plot lacks the 'wow' factor. "Toofan" weaves a story of twists, crime, and political violence. Unfortunately, Shakib Khan tends to overact when a more restrained performance would suffice. In contrast, actors like Salauddin Lavlu, Misha Sawdagor, Gazi Rakayet, Shahiduzzaman Selim, and Chanchal Chowdhury are known for their natural and method acting in Bangladesh. Despite involving many talented actors, Raihan Rafi did not manage to showcase everyone's skills to their fullest.

From a technical standpoint, some of the background music seems to be copied or inspired by recently released Hindi movies. The film features only two original songs. Additionally, the storyline has several loopholes.

On a positive note, the camera work and cinematography are commendable, thanks to Tahsin Rahman's efforts.

Overall, "Toofan" is a decent effort and a good start for Bangladeshi cinema. It's a commercial film that you can enjoy with family and friends in the theatre. While the execution could have been better, my overall rating for the film is 6 out of 10.

The New era of Bangladeshi Cinema has begun. A pure master class and the best direction by Raihan Rafi as he poured out the best performance till date from Mega Star Shakib Khan. BGM, CGR, Editing, Casting, songs, dialogue etc. Every single thing about this movie is almost perfect. Multicasting of several legendary actors from Bengali film industry worked really well as it attracts both mass and class people at the same time. Raihan Rafi proved once again that he is the best Bangladeshi movie director of modern era and also proved that Mega Star Shakib Khan is a director's artist and proper utilization and presentation will make him almost invincible and he is no less then any Bollywood or South actors. In my opinion Mega Star Shakib Khan is a perfect combination of Three biggest Khans in Bollywood (Shahrukh, Amir and Salman) My personal rating for Toofan is 8.5 but just to encourage multicasting and high budget fimls which is very rare in Bangladesh I'm giving full Marks. Thank you.
