The Dark Side of Dhaka

Movie: The Dark Side of Dhaka IMDb: 7.7/10

"The Dark side of Dhaka" is a Bangladeshi crime thriller film which is released in 2021. There are five stories linked with each other in this movie. Four stories are directed by Raihan Rafi. People who have already watched "Janowar", know him very well. And another story is directed by Simit Ray Antor.

Trust is a very dangerous and manipulative thing. If you rely on someone and the person breaks your trust, then you'll be damaged. If you can't rely on someone and the person is really trustworthy then you will lose a beautiful relationship. This way or that way, you have to face your fate.

There are people who have greed for power or money, who are sadists by nature, people who are lustful and we're living with them. The persons might be our relatives, our friends or our neighbours. We cannot recognise them. What should we do then to protect ourselves? Should we never trust our closed ones? At the end of the day, we'll be nothing in front of our "Karma".

I was really shocked while watching this film. From screenplay to cinematography to character development are really praiseworthy. I loved how the stories are connected with a fine thread. Colour grading is impressive. The only negative side in this film is there's too much use of abusive words. The stories are dark. Some stories are predictable. Each story is incredible on its own way but my personal favourite is the second one.

According to me, "The Dark Side of Dhaka" is a must watch. This is actually a hidden gem. You shouldn't miss this at all.

Such a great and quite unique story exhibition from a director who was unknown to me before! Really a proud & ambitious project for him and the industry. The way he connected the dots between the stories was wonderful.

Except for the amateur acting in the beginning phase of the movie, everything was excellent. I was really upset watching the 1st story. Otherwise I would have given it a 9/10.

We surely have a great future ahead if we keep on bumping this kind of content.

Undoubtedly one of the best crime thriller movie in Bangladesh so far!! This movie's storyline,color grading was marvelous!! The plot twists were mind-blowing! I'll suggest everyone to watch this masterpiece.

Raihan Rafi is one of the best director in Bangladesh. His "Khachar Bhitor Ochin Pakhi" is another masterpiece.

I watched every segments with gradually progressive suspense ..... Every characters in it were perfect .... This is all about "Karma" - Violent yet Judicious .

I suggest You to enjoy it at midnight !

I really liked watching the movie. The story of the movie just surprised me. As a Bangladeshi movie lover, I am very proud to see such movie story in Bengali industry. Raihan Rafi is the most unique story teller in Bangla Movie Industry. I am hopeful, we will see more movies with such wonderful stories in this country in the future. As a film lover I tell everyone who hasn't seen this movie yet they are missing out on something good. So tell me as fast as you can watched the movie. Amazing story, suspense and color grading will not let you get up without finishing the movie i.e. Will keep you till the end.
