Ballabhpurer Roopkotha

This movie is a gem, pure gem. The performance of each and every character were beyond amazing. I could not tell if they were doing their part, it felt so real and so honest, so funny, so emotional, so dramatic. Kudos to Anirban, for creating this masterpiece. And of course, Late Badal Sircar for writing such an incredible play.

I recently watched many popular movies in different languages like RRR, Brahmastra, Avatar way of water. I don't like to compare movies, but those movies were too lengthy, were not very engaging. I am surprised how much box office record they did.

The sad part is that a brilliant film like Ballabhpurer Roopkotha did not get its due. If we, bengalis don't promote our talents in bigger forums then who else would.

Go to theaters or get Hoichoi subscription and WATCH Ballabhpurer Roopkotha.

Watched a wholesome Bangla entertainer after a very long time! As a huge Shirshendu Mukhopadhyay fan, each frame and scene of Ballabhpurer Roopkatha was a delight for me to watch. Every actor, despite not being the so called established names, did a swell job of bringing the characters to life. The protagonist, Satyam Bhattacharya, is just mind blowing! Such a simple, linear story told in such an engaging way! The dialogs are just optimally comic, the supernatural setting is perfectly balanced with the comic one...I can go on and on. One small disppointnent: would have loved to see the director playing one of the roles.

Watch this one and watch it along with the little ones.

A descendant from a Royal family at Ballabhpur, Bhupati Roy who is broke and urgently in need of money decides to sell his crumbling 400-year-old palace to repay his debters and start a law practice in partnership with his friend. As prepares to impress a buyer who is fond of heritage structures, Bhupati Roy doesn't tell him that the palace is haunted by the ghost of a cursed ancestor.

A comedy of errors then ensues as the ghost makes its appearance in the presence of the buyers. Will Bhupati Roy be able to sell his house ? Will the cursed soul ever find peace ?

Another masterpiece by Anirban Bhattacharya. Superb direction, impeccable comic timing & Grt casting where all the actors slip into their characters seamlessly.

A treat to watch overall.

Loved the song "Chaarsho bochor periye", quite hummable !!

If you have watched and enjoyed Manojder Adbhut Bari, u will love this one too.. fun unlimited .. total dhamaal !!

4/5 for this one ... Adios 🙂

I am feeling very proud that i am Bengali. The movie was very Heart touching. Lots of emotions and Best Comedy movie. I do respect Anirban, how he present entire thing and his effort.

The entire team of this film has been done such a finest job to build this movie. Sending love for all team members. Cast was superb, Acting was great. Everything is mind blowing. Every one should watch this movie like with your friend or family.

@Satyam_Bhattacharya you have done great job. From start to end i really enjoyed your acting and skills. I would specially thanks to the Sound team and light they have done a wonderful job.

It has been a long while since I have watched a cinema in a theatre, that kept me entertained and engaged thoroughly, throughout its run; like this one did. The acting was spot on, the pacing was legit, the story felt like a good 60s Bengali comedy film, and the humour.... I can't remember the last time I laughed so much in a theatre. The only film I think I have watched that can be compared to this film tonally and thematically, is Bhooter Bhobishot... I would definitely recommend anyone looking for a good, hearty laugh; that can be enjoyed with family, to check it out. This film merits attraction, exploring the rich sides of Bengali theatre, that is nowhere used enough in cinemas.
