Perhaps the most beautiful part of this 41 minute film is that there's absolutely nothing superfluous about any of it. Yet, it leaves a lasting presence in the minds of the viewers. A story that may seem so distant, yet is so very personal. The script is very strong, considering the fact that this is only for a bengali TV movie. The cultural capital of India, Kolkata - a beacon of cultural progress in the country? Or just a collection of families torn apart between the concepts of socially acceptable "culture" and what "progress" is supposed to mean? This is the question that lies central in the theme of the movie.
It is a rather beautiful ode to the LGBT communities and their struggle to live with dignity.
On performances, Ishaa Saha shines bright in an exceptional performance. Other performances are quite good too. If I were to be too critical, I'd have to say Gourab Chatterjee could have done a bit better job (IMHO).
Cons: Parts of the starting scenes may seem a bit unreasonable, but that may depend on personal perspective.
Pros: A riveting ending scene and a very sincere effort to do justice to the fight for love (+1 * just for the effort).
