This is the best of Sinha, no doubt. Not only among the great fives, but this is one of the best original movies made by any Indian director. This movie has been adapted in multiple languages. Now I can recall about at least five movies inspired this one. I know whoever is reading the review must have watched this film, but if not, disconnect from internet and buy the film as the first thing - this is not a request, an order.

The story has a similarities with The Bishop's Wife and It's a wonderful life.But the scenario is purely Indian. And the problems solved here are without any miracle.

If you missed this movie you will miss lot of things in life.. great storyline.

In Childhood, this cinema was always a collective and enchanting experience. It never bored me and I enjoyed watching it. But as I grow up started learning about film language, this film becomes more interesting to me.

Tapan Sinha, tells us a simple family drama in very much in his own unique way. But it conveys a universal message of simplifying our lives.

At this time, when we all are isolated someway, mostly having no humanly contact (touch), this film helps to stay afloat. It delivers a message of universal brotherhood - in a metaphor of Bengali family in 1966 Bengal. When Bengal was going through turmoil like student & food revolution.

But, Tapan Sinha want us value the small things in our life rather then materialistic possessions. The true happiness comes from being with family and from inside.

Kudos to Sinha for making such film which is still so relevant to our contemporary depreciating society.

In this black and white epic, we see Ravi Ghosh as Dhananjoy, a stranger who suddenly arrives at a home and alters the life of the family living there. The acting of Ravi Ghosh and the exceptional story of the film bring this to a height for all time!
