Projapati

Narratives about mothers and their undying affection for their children have always been commemorated and recognised not only by culturual explorations, but also through our artistic expressions, through the medium of cinema, plays, poems or literatures, but we seldom see the sacred relationship between a father and his son or daughter being portrayed in an identical manner.

So far, only a few stories have attempted to delineate what fatherhood genuinely means and why it must become an integral part of our everyday conversations. Projapati as a film is yet another attempt to reinvigorate the same discourse.

It is uplifting, engaging, and, above all, full of familial warmth and love that will be relevant to a vast percentage of the viewers (particularly Bengalis). Yes, It's not perfect, it does have some issues that cannot and should not be overlooked, but if you go in with a limited set of expectations and an open mind, you will have a good time, I assure.

P. S. The chemistry between Dev and Mithun was so natural; they looked & acted like a real life father-son pair; there's no superficiality in their on-screen rapport, and that certainly to some degree at least, played a part in making the equation more lively and likeable.

Projapati is a film of relationship. Relationship between father and son, relationship between old friends. The screenplay in the first half is gripping. Mithun Chakraborty tried his level best to arrange marriage for his only son Dev, who is a wedding planner. But on the course of arranging marriage of his son, Mithun found his old friend Mamata Shankar. Now the dimension of story is changed. Unfortunately second half is dipping due to too much characters bur unfortunately most of them are underdeveloped. Performance wise Kharaj Mukherjee, Ambarish, Mamata Shankar, Dev justified with their roles. New comer Sweata did good job. But Mithun Chakraborty ultimately steals the show. He is fabulous in both comedy and tragedy. His pairing with Mamata Shankar after 46 years of Mrinal Sen's classic Mrigaya made you Nostalgic. Music is good. Portraying of Benaras in the film is praiseworthy. It is definitely one time watchable particularly for Mithun, who again proved that age doesn't matter for a natural actor.

As a general viewer, what do you want to see in a good film ? Good acting? Good story? Good songs? Everything is there in Projapati.

Director Avijit Sen has done a good job again after Tonic. The songs of the movie are melodious and perfectly placed. The story of the movie is very nice. It's a family drama, where father - son bonding is the main highlight. And there is a sweet love story between two elderly persons. I congratulate the producers. They strike the right chord.

Acting wise, it is a through and through Mithun Chakraborty movie. What an actor he is ?! By looking at him, you will get the feeling he is hypnotizing the audience. His performance is superlative as a lonely father.

Another commendable performance is done by Mamata Shankar. She plays her part with an ease.

Dev is good as the son but in some scenes, he should be better. Kharaj and Ambarish should get special mention as they both have done a marvelous job. Sweta, Kaninika, Biswanath are good at their parts.

At the end, I must say, You can see the film more than once for one man's performance -Mithun Chakraborty.

This is truly a beautiful film. A must-watch 'cause it is about the love between a father and his son and also about love and romance. The film has a perfect balance between all of our human emotions. If the 1st half makes you laugh, then the 2nd half makes you cry. There are beautiful moments in the 1st half itself which make you cry and touch the right chord.

I genuinely loved the film.

Out of the 3 songs in the film, the 1st song is pure melody and yet again hits you in the heart 'cause it is about a son telling his dad that his father is truly his hero. I think we all can mostly relate to that.

Performance wise it is the Living Legend Mithun Chakraborty who is the Star of the film! He carries the entire film on his shoulders and the more you are in awe of him as an actor in this film, the more it is less. He is truly brilliant in every frame. Whether it is comedy or heart-break, the maestro of talent proves yet again why he is one of the finest actors in the world!

After Mithun Chakraborty, it is Kharaj Mukherjee who is just excellent in the film. His comic timing is out-standing and he makes you laugh your guts out whenever he comes on screen.

Even Dev was very good in the film and his chemistry with Mithun Chakraborty is wonderful and their bond of father and son intensifies the relationship.

All in all, everyone in the film is good because the story is so sweet and touching.

My special shout-out to the director of the film, Avijit Sen for showing us such a beautiful story.

This is truly a lovely, feel-good family entertainer which shouldn't be missed.

Really if you are a family person you have to watch it. Without any hit song ,dance melo drama a pure content which touch your heart. You can watch it with your family and lot's of learning from it. Deb da ,Mithun daa awesome to play character. Some comedy in addition with it make it perfect. Mamata sankar also outstanding in character. But ending need to little bit more addition with marriage of deb. All comedy character played their role very good in first half .2 nd half also story of every old mother father at home . Everyone crying at hall me too after long time without any short dress without and boogey boogey dance people attrect with good story. Bengali industry should proud for Deb daa and mithun daa.
