Shontaan

It's a a one of the best flim in 2024 nice story excellent acting and the direction was so good. Even the star cast was perfect I watched with my mom and it's create another level memory for us. Specially Mithun Chakraborty was fabulous as always. And thanks to the whole team to make such flim on this kind of topics which need to be highlighted and there should be learning things for society. Atlast thanks Jeet Ganguly sir for your amezing songs it's highly recommended movie every one should wath this kind of film with family and parents and support for future Bengali movie like shontaan. Thanks again.

This is one of Mithun Chakraborty's best performances wouldn't be an understatement. As others mentioned, the cast is tailor-made. There are absolutely flaws in cinematography, editing, background score but the actors made it their own. Storyline is just as symmetry to this genre, but Mithun Chakraborty and in some scenes Ritwik have outperformed.

The other castes supported well to brew this old story to a finer liquor - absolutely worth watching.

Raj Chakraborty as a director is blooming with time and will wish to watch some more. This should be commercially acclaimed to the TGs if properly marketed.

But actor Mithun Chakraborty has owned this one - he won the show and the audience again with his charm, apt emotions and subtle gentleness.

Shontaan is a Bengali film directed by well known Bengali Director Raj Chakraborty. Film deals with the problem of aged parents who are completely neglected by their son. Mithun Chakraborty and Anasuya Majumder potrait the roles of parents and Ritwik Chakraborty potrait the character son. The story revolves on the basis of a Court room drama when Mithun Chakraborty is forced to place a case against his son who is completely reluctant to help his lonely parents even inspite of having a white collar job , he refused to give money for operation of her mother. This son with his wife live a sophisticated life but not extends a minimum support to his own parents. Subhashree Ganguly as a lawyer gives her support to Mithun Chakraborty to fight for justice against his son. Raj Chakraborty has done a fantastic job to handle both family drama and court room drama with essence. He is definitely one of the finest Director of modern Bengali Cinema. Last 20 minutes of the film makes you cry and you leave the hall with a strong social message. The main strong point of the film is performance. Ritwik Chakraborty as son, Anasuya Majumder as mother and Subhashree Ganguly as lawyer give their career best performance. Ritwik is so natural as a bad son, as a spectator you will hate him. Mithun at mid seventies makes wonder, poor man Amitabh Bachhan, hero of front bencher, now melts the heart of urban centric audiences who were slightly indifferent about him even during his Disco era. After Projapati, Kabuliwala now Shontaan it is 3 rd hits in three consecutive year in completely different genres which are differed from typical Mithun Genera. Three time National award winner actor now justifies his talent which is seriously underrated in his so called masala bollywood films. Sohini Sengupta and Kharaj Mukherjee justify themselves in their short roles. Music is as per the message of the film. Lastly it is a must watch film for every family.

Very good film. Mithun Chakraborty, rithik Chakravarti combination is perfect. We all will watch this film by prospect of review and trailer. This type of social films sinking out the Bengali film industry bahar on and special story, screening, social work. We are the West Bengal's common people and our family members are the best person for this type of film liker. We wish this type of film much and more with the hand of best actors like Mithun Chakraborty, Parambrata chattopadhyay, Jeet madnani, rudranil Sengupta, khoraj Mukherjee, Saswata Chatterjee, Vishwanath Basu , Poran Bandopadhyay Rajatava dutta. Etc great actor...

Outstanding movie.

During the controversy I thought the movie might be avarage but after watching the movie I can definitely say Movie was great,Raj Chakroborty great direction, Mithun da's splendid performance.. Rittik also.. Subhashree very average performance. Even at this age he can ruin the box office...Very great acting sense...New generation actors should learn like Dev Jeet.

Pros: Mithun, Story, Direction, Rittik and others actors. Last 30 min is just awesome.

Cons: very less. I can say Son's character might be well established.

After Porineetaa..Shontan..I can the day the best movie of Raj Chakroborty.
