    A Bengali Masterpiece

    This is an amazing Bangla movie. This movie will keep you entertained from start to finish. There have been very few such movies in the history of Bengali movies.

    Simplistic delivery, yet extraordinary

    This can be marked as a great work of Srijit. All the actors have done a catchy performance. Especially, Prosenjit has been mindblowing.

    How a simple script can change to an utterly magnificent movie!

    Baishe Srabon, a magnificent movie with simple script but holds you in your seats. Every actor is mind-blowing, and talking about Prosenjit- never once in my mind had I thought that he would be such a pleasure to watch. Prosenjitda is really talented. His acting skills -(minus) his dramewali crying and 'tollywood style' revenge = a perfect blend. And the movie was worth watching, a real pleasure. A movie that talks about obsession. I promise that from next time onwards I will watch Prosenjitda's movie if he chooses scripts like this, and by 'I' , I mean every person who never thought that Prosenjit could act so flawlessly.

    A must watch movie !!!

    The enigmatic way bumba da act surprises me. Sometime he will act in so called typical 'Bengali' films made specifically for rural audience & then he will give these performances. I am really amazed. About others frankly speaking this is the first time I have liked pramabrata. Raima & Abir were good too. Overall it is a spotless movie, everything ranging from screenplay, music, cinematography, camera, acting, and story were near perfect. There are some bold dialog throwing in the movie and few incidence that will put smile in your face but in most of the parts you will be kept guessing what 's going to happen next. Parambrata is a top cop given charge to solve a serial killing. Now his is struck between his girlfriend who also happens to be Abir's best pal and his work. Prosenjit is a former cop with huge experience and when Parambrata and other officers fail to find out any information about the killer, he arrives at the scene to assist Kolkata Police. Will they be able to find out the killer. This remains the question ??

    Must watch!!

    Writer-director Srijit Mukherjee's another masterpiece. Though this film is of the genre 'who-done-it' type thrillers, still there was enough drama and twists in the plot to keep you riveted to your seat. The film is a welcome change from the usual Indian musicals. Instead of stopping the pace of the movie, songs are used as background score and only used in parts in the movie. You have to purchase the soundtrack CD to listen to them in full. Excellent acting by veteran actor Prosenjit and special kudos to Goutam Ghosh for portrayal of the 'Hungryalist' poets of Kolkata of 50's. But Abhijit Pakrashi portrayed by Parambrata did not gel fit the requirements of brilliant and best inspector of Kolkata police department. He was a wimp who only can show anger in wrong places and flash his police badge to get undue advantages every now and then. In smaller roles Abir and Raima did excellent. Excellent music courtesy Anupam Roy. Bodhaditya Banerjee served justice with the scissors to match with the pace of the movie. Final Verdict - must watch!!

      Srijit Mukherji: appears in the scene where the lead detectives are having coffee at a Terrace Cafe. The detectives have to borrow Srijit's laptop who is sitting on a different table leading to a sullen looking Srijit in the last shot.
    • Goofs
      In the last scene when Prabir is lying dead, the entire ice bucket and glass is full of blood. The blood splatter from his head wound wouldn't have reached the ice bucket lying some distance away to completely fill it with blood, while the part of the table lying in between is relatively clean with just a few splashes.
