    Let's Enjoy this festive season with 'Projapati'

    'Projapati', a new creation to cheer up, in search for a friend after 'Tonic' and 'Kishmish'. In the presentation of Atanu Ray Choudhury Sir & production of Dev da, with the direction of Avijit Sen Sir, this film depicts the joy & sorrow, pride & egotism of a father-son relationship. In the warm presence of incomparable beauty of Banaras along with each and every song of the film, it gets a different dimension to every moment of the film. There is no feeling of a little bit of boredom in a single part of this film. The presence of Kharaj Sir and Ambarish Sir fills the film with a lot of hilarious moments. In the last 30 minutes, I really got emotional with the dialogues of Dev da for his father and the most amazing song ' Bhenge dekho amay, Jure dekho amay, Tumi amari amari royecho' sung by Nachiketa Sir.

    The perfect and eminent climax of this film teaches us how to love our father, share our feelings with him and equally try to fulfill their wishes. At the end of the day, we can also be a friend of our father and pay respect to their tireless care, with a yell, 'Baba tomake joriye dhorte boddo icche kore, Asole Tumi Amar Hero'.

    So why are you waiting for? Let's celebrate this festive season of Christmas and New Year with 'Projapati' for an awesome and amazing jugalbandi of Dev da and Mithun Da, and the entire team of Projapati.

    Thank You Dev Da for this amazing 'Projapati', wish you the grand success of Projapati. Eagerly waiting for the next upcoming projects from Dev Entertainment Ventures in 2023.

    Dev and Mithun Da share an incredible on-screen rapport

    Narratives about mothers and their undying affection for their children have always been commemorated and recognised not only by culturual explorations, but also through our artistic expressions, through the medium of cinema, plays, poems or literatures, but we seldom see the sacred relationship between a father and his son or daughter being portrayed in an identical manner.

    So far, only a few stories have attempted to delineate what fatherhood genuinely means and why it must become an integral part of our everyday conversations. Projapati as a film is yet another attempt to reinvigorate the same discourse.

    It is uplifting, engaging, and, above all, full of familial warmth and love that will be relevant to a vast percentage of the viewers (particularly Bengalis). Yes, It's not perfect, it does have some issues that cannot and should not be overlooked, but if you go in with a limited set of expectations and an open mind, you will have a good time, I assure.

    P. S. The chemistry between Dev and Mithun was so natural; they looked & acted like a real life father-son pair; there's no superficiality in their on-screen rapport, and that certainly to some degree at least, played a part in making the equation more lively and likeable.

    Wasted potential

    Outstretched excessively on the second half with unnecessary drama. Mithun Chakraborty's usual charm started off the film well but then in b/w it lost on its main plot & diverted to something else. Dev's Tonic is better any day compared to this, but the fact to see Mithun again in a Movie Medium, it was something else. Shouldve kept it short following the main storyline in a father's attempt to get his son married off. The intentional attempts to influence upon a emotional scene, it really felt not need, could've been done away with. The overdoing of all this has ruined it but quite happy to see Mithun & Dev's movie get their due success. I'm really aainst TMC's policy of discrimination against other opposition actor/actresses.

    Watch it for Mithun's acting excellence.

    A beautiful movie. Little bit overdramatic at the end. The storyline is good. The best thing about the movie is Mithun Chakraborty's acting. It is proved again that if you give him a good script, he will create such a magic on screen that no one ever could. We can name a few of his gems like - Mrigaya, Tahader katha, Titli, Kalpurush, Swami Vivekananda, Shukno Lanka, The Tashkent files, Ekti Nadir golpo, or this one, Projapati. In Projapati, each time he appears in the screen, he just steals the show. His eyes, gestures, dialogue delivery, everything is just brilliant and could be a lesson to all wanna be actors. Mamata Shankar is graceful and good. Her on-screen pairing with Mithun is just perfect. I wonder why other directors didn't cast them after Mrigaya. Dev is consistent throughout the movie. Kharaj and Ambarish are great actors and they have proved it again here. Kaninika is superb in a small role. Sweta is really good and has potential but in this movie, she doesn't have much scope. Biswanath is fine in a small role.

    Direction is very good just like his previous film Tonic. Music of the film is very soothing. Cinematography is good and fresh.

    Over all, you should watch the film atleast once to witness the maestro of Mithun Chakraborty's acting.

    Excellent Movie.

    Really if you are a family person you have to watch it. Without any hit song ,dance melo drama a pure content which touch your heart. You can watch it with your family and lot's of learning from it. Deb da ,Mithun daa awesome to play character. Some comedy in addition with it make it perfect. Mamata sankar also outstanding in character. But ending need to little bit more addition with marriage of deb. All comedy character played their role very good in first half .2 nd half also story of every old mother father at home . Everyone crying at hall me too after long time without any short dress without and boogey boogey dance people attrect with good story. Bengali industry should proud for Deb daa and mithun daa.
