Fatafati

Aritra Mukherjee's Fatafati has a decent grip on the perils of both fatphobia and skinny-worshipping but manages to distil its size positivity from becoming unrelenting. It's a clever approach too because the film's message weaves in ideas of body neutrality; instead of telling women how they should feel about their bodies, the film basically says they are much more than their bodily flaws or beauties.

Ritabhari Chakraborty plays Phullara, a plus-sized seamstress-turned-influencer from a small town who with the help of her brother-in-law starts a body-positive social media page. A very well executed global issue of obesity and over weighted people . In short I should say it is a masterpiece.

Fata Fati If you look at me, you will know my weight and sizeAnd the size of my dreams is 100,100,100 -The movie ends with Phooora (actress Ritabhari Chakraborty) saying...

But The words of direct competition and insults directed at her shape pierce Etella's mind The role of Phulora in this movie is that she brings out her amazing talent from all the pains.

(Ritabhari's) performance in the scenes of walking on the ramp in the fashion show is popular

The scene where fat women, despite their shape and many problems in life, get together and forget about everything and have a cup of coffee is great.

Must see.

I have just seen this movie. Now,i just wanna give my honest opinion about this .. Abir Chatterjee as usual very natural in his character of Bachaspati..@ritabharipc as phullora must be appreciated..she justifies phullora so well. Rest of the characters of this film match the vives and tempo..swastika as Biki Sen attracts peoples attention. Director Aritra Mukherjee deserves a wow..Windows as a production house done a great job. So,the story of a middle class girl who is fat but live her life by her own choice. It is a story that tells us how we do our daily chores but never leave our dreams #fatafati.

Love Bikki Sen. I don't know why but I found her to be very relatable. I have a neighbour, who is always gossiping about what others wear, what they eat, what their body weight is, what their public conduct is like and how all these should ideally be and passes on all the information to her circle. So, all these women are always body shaming the rest of the neighbourhood. I have been under their scanner several times and no matter how much I detest them or want to raise my voice, something in me has barred me from doing that. Fatafati is an answer to the Bikki Sens of the world. I hope all these aunties watch the film and realise what a mess they have been to us. Performance wise too, Swastika Dutta as Bikki Sen has been quite a revelation. She has broken image to do this and hats off!

Fatafati #1 This is a beautiful movie with a great message to convey. Body shaming is a crime as it affects a person psychologically. Phullora's story is an example of how one should ignore all the comments regarding one's shape and size and concentrate on his/her work. Success is the best answer to all sorts of criticism. It is high time that we, as a society, stop all these. The film entails some heart touching performance by the lead artists and is a family entertainment. It's absolutely essential to encourage Bengali movies of this kind because it does not promote any negative idea. Go and watch Fatafati and recommend it to all your friends and family. This film gives a positive message which is absolutely essential for today's youth.
