Watched 1 hour of this film on Youtube , barely funny, loud, cringy. Please save yourself from this rubbish. Could not bear to watch the rest anymore . Noone from the known comedy makers have made or produced this film hence this condition.

This FF horror is made in a style that hundreds of other FF horrors were made , a group getting lost in the forest, hearing strange noises at night etc, it just feels like any other FF horror you have seen before.

While the one hour or so was cliched, the last 22 mins , was absolutely terrifying and insane with the last scene before ending being the most disturbing one highlighting a cult that exists in the Black Water area. There is one jump scare (related to Anthony where he got killed) as well near the end which was very well timed and really shot me off my bed.

Watch it in a cozy silent night and you will enjoy it although it feels a ripoff of many other FF horrors of this kind.

Belashuru means "A new way of living" or "accepting a new way of living". This film quite well justifies this title . But it has its own issues

This sequel has no connection with whatever happened in Belasheshe. There is not even any reference to that film. Only the characters are carried forward. A Nandita-Shibo film means litres of tears flowing through character's eyes even in situations that dont require and this film is also no different.

The best part of this film is the constant effort put by Biswanath to bring back the memory of his wife Arati suffering from Alzheimer's and the sweet love and care for his wife despite his wife having forgotten him. The two share a terrific yet heart warming chemistry. Actually, this film is dominated by Swati mam and somewhere Soumitra sir feels a little sidelined as the story this time is not revolving around him unlike the previous film. But definitely this part is the highlight. Second great thing was Kharaj . Terrific comic timing bringing in the much needed comic relief in this emotional journey, some notable ones being Arati constantly calling him a milkman or newspaper man due to her illness was really fun to watch. The last good thing are the songs. All are terrific.

Now comes the weak points. A 2hr 20 mins film stretched with those usual expected subplots of the children and grandchildren and this time it does not work at all. An unnecessary gay angle popping up from nowhere (I wouldnt say where as it would be spoilers but wherever is comes, it just feels too forced ), the Sharmishta - Barin story that suddenly disappears at the end with no conclusion and the Palash-Piu story that is so awkward all contribute to nothing but only increase the length of the film. The subplots have no impact at all. Nandita-Shibo should have not opted for this old strategy rather should have focused on the main plot which was very interesting.

The final climax does justify the title brilliantly but then you know, it felt so abruptly ending that audience in the theatre were like "Oh thats the end?" The makers should have ended it in a better way rather than in an abrupt way although i understand it very well justifies the title of the film Belashuru.

Swatilekha mam is the show stealer and this film completely belongs to her. Her behavior as mentally unstable lady is really heart warming and at times heart wrenching to witness. Next is no doubt, Soumitra sir. His chemistry with Swatilekha is terrific. He doesnt dominate the film but has really good moments throughout. Next is Kharaj. His comedy made my day. Others also have done a great job and help in rescuing a film that could have gone down due to poor subplots.

Overall, this is not as good as Belasheshe but definitely a great one time watch. Wont leave a lasting impact on you but you will definitely feel atleast you watched a decent film.
