Switzerland

I recently watched Switzerland, a 2020 Bengali film directed by Sauvik Kundu and starring Abir Chatterjee, Rukmini Maitra, Ambarish Bhattacharya, Arindam Ganguly, and others. It's a light, feel-good film with Abir and Rukmini portraying a young couple raising two school-going daughters. Abir works in sales, while Rukmini is a schoolteacher, hailing from a well-to-do family.

Tensions surface whenever they visit Rukmini's family, as an elderly widowed aunt (played by Alakananda Roy) takes every opportunity to belittle Abir with cutting, snobbish remarks. In a moment of quiet defiance at a family dinner, Abir impulsively declares that he's taking his entire family on a trip to Switzerland - leaving his in-laws and relatives utterly stunned.

The film then follows Abir's often brave and challenging efforts to arrange the funds for this extravagant promise, leading him into a series of adventures and difficult situations. Running just about two hours, Switzerland offers engaging performances from Abir and Rukmini, with a memorable cameo by veteran Arun Mukhopadhyay as their elderly next-door neighbour. At its heart, the film is a warm family drama about the lengths one will go to keep their loved ones happy.

Just tell me, according to IMDB user's rating both #Switzerland and #Dictionary rates with seven star. How it could be justified? Because, both the moviea are of romance genre with different sort of story, and the story of both movies are quite fantastic and not stereotyped. One will get some freshness from both the stories. Then Abir and his realistic acting skill what he is doing for so many years are constant in both movies. Now coming to the difference, first music and in this department Switzerland is the winner without no hesitation. Music of this movie is too much effective and comes to mind with a feel. Secondly, the acting of supporting cast is also too good in Switzerland. Everybody gave their 100%. Now coming to the main difference the heroine, how the acting of Rukmini can be compared with Nusrat. Not only in this movie, at overall level, till days the skill of Rukmini ia very much superior than Nusrat. The scene where she suspects on Abir for having affair with others, in that particular scene she just killed it with her expression and showing different sort of emotions, in my words she even overshadowed Abir with her performance. So I can't give 7 🌟 to Switzerland, it atleast deserves one more extra.

Thanks for that types movie, Excellent movie... Family entertainer...Abir, Rukmini & all actors are brilliant.

In this movie, Abir has acted well along with costar Rukmini. There few loop holes which can be mitigated however you can ignore on those if you are not a critic or a critical person.

Once again, movie is predictable but good watch with family.

Watched this film on TV. A decent middle class family film showcasing the struggles of an average earning man to save money for a trip to Switzerland for the happiness of his family. Quite enjoyable , some emotional moments yet it feels extremely stretched which is typical of every bengali film (for ex- if its a bengali film you have to include a Durga Pujo scene no matter how irrelevant it is to the main story and the same thing happens here in this film).
