Oti Uttam

Really creative in my opinion. I don't remember seeing this concept before. Hats off to Srijit Mukherjee for watching all Uttam Kumar films to make a script like this. Jokes in this movie gets the job done. As a 20s kid I haven't watched many Mahanayak films. Although I did watch some here and there. Still I am aware of his legacy. For people who experienced the Mahanayak era will get flabbergasted with nostalgia watching this. Once in a lifetime experience for them. Really good work by all the actors and Srijit Mukherjee ofcourse. I like the idea of using Gaurav Chaterjee as his own irl character in this movie as he's the gradson of Uttam Kumar himself.

The entire cast displayed perfect comic timing, making this concept a completely new and refreshing experience. Even Uttam Kumar Sir's shots matched the tone seamlessly. It is evident that a lot of effort and preparation went into creating this art piece. However, due to budget constraints, the camera and cinematography quality suffered at times, resulting in laggy and low-quality shots. Additionally, the story felt a bit dragged out, especially during the first half and climax. Nevertheless, it is still a nice film that beautifully pays homage to the legendary Mahanayak Uttam Kumar. The special cameo appearance was a delightful surprise and fit in perfectly. This movie is a great choice for a family and friends gathering, particularly when watching with elders.

Srijit tried to reverse engineer a plot out of Uttam Kumar's roles. Managed to carve out the most generic and shallow story - love triangle.

The storyline would feel very abrupt. No character consistency whatsoever.

I guess the story would have had a lot more substance to it if it would just revolve around the protagonist's love for Uttam. It'd probably have the Gandhi vibe from Lage Raho Munna Bhai. The intention of this setup was so novel that it had to work for Hirani.

But credit where its due - the scenes of Uttam just walking around the city, getting mesmerized over his statue and the station was so good. The thought of him coming back as a soul and, for him to realize he's a king and the respect he commands over the masses was all I wanted this movie to be about.

Also, the end credits >> entire movie!

What a movie , what a great initiative, lovely emotions ,love for this movie , love for uttam kumar flows . A historic day for all of us. Proud moments. Again to see uttam kumar after 42 years is a big thing we are watching his movie in theaters for the fist time. If this movie was not made we our generation will never had the chance to see him on the big screen.

The story is so good , great job by the director and the production house what a job . Looking forward to watch the movie again and again.

This has changed the face of bengali cinema. Am just overwhelmed By seeing the movie, hats off.

Illogical Premise. Poor Direction. Actors have tried their best to do justice but failed miserably. Very poor direction. But the effort of back-calculating the Screenplay, selecting 54 shots out of Uttam Kumar's old 87 films and then rotoscoping the digitally remasteres shots are not a matter of joke. The music is nice and the Cinematography is good. But picturising intimate scenes with the heroine and Uttam Kumar was like a culture shock. However, One-time Watch 👍🏻
