Bismillah

Beautiful movie! Cast is perfect, acting is perfect, Camera/cinematography is perfect, location is perfect,songs are perfect, storyline and transition are perfect, layers of story was done perfectly. I could honestly watch it for another few hours, like a good book you don't want to end. Rishi Sen, Subhashree Ganguly wow wow wow. The screen presence for every single cast member is quite impeccable. Thank you entire cast, and everyone who worked behind it. So many aspects of our tradition and culture portrayed. Heart warmingly fuzzy and sweet. I have about zero complains about this movie. Such a perfect movie.

I started watching this with least expectations as I was not so blown away by the trailer. I thought this will be another movie in the drama genre. The first 10 minutes I felt I was right the movie will not lead anywhere and remain as another regular flick but apparently I was wrong. The story is a slow burner with the emotions and it detailing about human connection, especially how today's generation treats our tradition and culture. It was so relatable that after a point I was fixed to the screen. I would not give away much but if you you really want to have some good time and can watch a movie keeping your phone aside and feel nostalgic, then this is the one for you. 💗

In an age of big budget mindless commercial entertainers, here comes a big budget sensible art film. A visual treat layered with Native and historical themes, Bismillah is the story of music which bonds two worlds, two ages, two different styles of music and brings together a narrative that is surprisingly clean, elegant and engaging. Special mentions to the director(Indraadip Dasgupta) and the leading lady(Subhashree Ganguly) of the film. I have also loved Kaushik Ganguly's acting too, especially his different shades portrayed at different stages. It was really so good to watch such a great content oriented movies. Finally A Movie which is Worth a watch!!!

Kudos to Indraadip Dasgupta for making a commercial movie with a nice message in it. His Background score too helped a lot to carry out the intensity and emotions of the characters in the movie. DOP was just Too Notch. Dialogues were also superb. All the characters were good. I'm sure the movie has made lot of people think for a second. Rishi Sen just excels a lot in his acting skills. He's one of the best actors of present generation Bengali Cinema. Great future ahead for him. The way the other leads performed were also appreciable. Over all one of the best Bemgali movies ever and easily the best Bengali movie this year.

A stellar ensemble with an outstanding performance by Ridhi Sen!

And what a powerful performance yet again. This is an actor who can invoke a range of emotions in his audience. His acting talent and script sense begs no introduction. But the magic he brings to characters such as the one he potrays in #Bismillah deserves kudos.

There is some length in the narration, but it is a story that is easy on the eyes and heart. It's the story of a young musicians journey.

Bengali cinema is doing wonders today by giving wings to ordinary, relatable narratives filled with exemplary performances. And it is doing a commendable job by putting together amazing ensemble to breathe life into these narratives. Reminiscent of the 80's and 90's, perhaps before that too. Routine commercial success driven cinema did take over this industry for a while so it is heartening to see good stories and lovely actors doing good work again.

Here's wishing great success and love to this lovable work of cinema named #Bismillah.
