Bancharamer Bagan

Written by the thespian Manoj Mitra, who played the titular role himself. People like Uttam Kumar, Soumitra Chatterjee, Bhanu Banerjee, Rabi Ghosh and Nirmal Kumar has been showing the path of acting as an old man for decades, and Mitra as Banchharam was the cumulative result and the best of all of them as well. The story focuses on every single charcater, even we can see how the antagonist gets into sadness after knowing about the climax. There is a backstory and charcater justification for all of them, that we can see why all the forgiving women are going against the protagonist. And what to say about the cast - let us just copy and paste from youtube - "Manoj Mitra, Dipankar Dey, Robi Ghosh, Madhabi Mukherjee, Bhanu Bandopadhyay, Biplab Chatterjee, Nirmal Kumar, Debika Mukherjee, Shambhu Bhattacharya, Ramen Roy Choudhury, Premangshu Bose" - seems like just a play which cannot be and intended not to be staged indoor. Kudos to all of them. We miss the great culture.
