Onko Ki Kothin

A perfect example of pretentious scripting and bad direction. The characters falls far from reality. The background score is horrendously bad... The cinematography is an eye-sore....

The movie tries to touch the lives of working class, the closed schools after corona, the plight pf government hospitals, the interreligious marriages, while embarking upon an almost surreal journey of dreams coming true. But the unnecessary blabbering of main characters, the grossly and vulgarly sophisticated dialogues that fails to touch the innocence and social stature of the protagosts, the slow boring cinemascape and the bad actings make the fairly good idea a horrible failure. The class difference of the story-teller and the protagonists become so prominent that it causes irritation, if not anger. The last 15 minutes do try to make the film up, but becomes is too late and too little effort to win such a colossal failure...

Waste of money, time and energy.

"I watched a Bengali film at Nandan that was more than just entertainment; it was an experience that touched my heart. I laughed, cried, and reflected - all at once. The film's story is close to reality, and it beautifully captures the complexities of life without resorting to drama. The acting is superb, and each character leaves a lasting impression. Every actor delivers a remarkable performance, making it hard to single out any one person. I highly recommend watching it with family, especially kids - I promise you'll enjoy it. What resonated with me the most is that the film doesn't just focus on students; it offers a broader perspective on life and embracing struggles. The director has done an incredible job of storytelling. In the end, I can only say that more films like this should be made. Some stories are meant to be felt, not just seen."

• The director's storytelling is commendable.

• The reviewer highly recommends the film, especially for family viewing.

I really appreciate the straightforward writing and its bold take on the societal issues that everyday people face.

However, I feel like the messages come across a bit too preachy, especially when delivered by the young kids on-screen. It's hard to believe they'd really understand the heavy topics they're talking about at such a tender age.

On the flip side, I found the simple, silly romance between Shahrukh and Kajol to be charming. Sure, it's a bit cheesy, but there's a sweetness to it that I genuinely liked.

Honestly, their relationship was what I found most endearing, not so much the kids.

Make no mistake, they did a decent job, and I wouldn't fault the child actors for the reservations I have, they did what they were simply asked of.

Still, I wish the director had allowed the children's innocence and naivety to shine a little bit more, perhaps the decision to involve them as 'messengers' for his societal commentary wasn't a great idea after all.

A great movie represented very thoughtfully and having such deep lesson for the society about facing different challenges of different phases of life is done marvelously by the director and the cast and crews...great work with the dialogues, creativities, acting skills... Even if one feels it's impossible to fulfill dreams,still keep on dreaming and move ahead with a working spirit...somehow or the other way your dream will certainly come true... And most importantly a good human being is what primarily we should be..this movie is an alarm to the sleeping society of today's. Loved it...superb work. Loved the way the costume styling was done. Each character was so distinctly well presented...

After a long time, I felt truly uplifted - this film is a breath of fresh air. A remarkable piece of storytelling, brought to life with excellence by the entire team. Every time I go to hall to watch any film I am always conscious about the camera work, lights, screen play etc etc. But this film was such an exceptional experience when I finished watching it I was deeply moved-it felt as though it had gently reminded me to hold on tightly to dreams, to the essence of life itself. For a long while, I felt immersed in its world, not as a distant viewer, but as someone living within it. This was no imagined tale or fictional escape; it was a raw, honest slice of reality. In a world where dreams are easily traded, often devalued, the film illuminated the quiet strength of true aspirations and the enduring light that shines through even the deepest shadows of sorrow and loss. Vibrant, inspiring, and full of life - an absolute must-watch.
