      One of a kind bangla movie.

      This is a movie made for cinema lovers. This is not your typical bangladeshi dhishum dhishum film. Steer clear if you want that.

      It is a must watch for audience who are always complaining about a lack of films that are out of the box.

      Every actor played their role with great conviction. Especially Mahfuz Ahmed was spectacular. He stole the show in the last 20 minutes. Nasir Uddin, Bubly, Opu all played their parts well. This might be the best performance by Bubly so far in her career.

      Director Chayanika Chowdhury has shown great maturity in this film and it is a huge jump from her first film.

      Prohelika is an underrated gem that might go down as one of the most influential bangladeshi films of all time.

      Terrible movie.

      The movie is terrible with plot, sequence, acting - intact everything is a disaster! We office team and my wife went with high expectation but it disappointed us in every aspect. I still don't understand, how come the makers didn't try to correct the plot or story even after prescreening. Mahfuz Ahmed, why man !! After being in the industry for so long time, you delivered the worst of yours .. why in a day they fall in love .. why they cry .. there is no link at all.. only bubli was watchable .. songs are okayish but when it ll start, you ll not know.. such a waste of talents including Nasiruddin khan..

      It seems like makers just made it and released even without watching.

      Such a waste !!

      Pure Rubbish

      This movie is just a piece of trash. A total waste of time for anyone attempting to watch it.

      Except for a handful of dialogues and some scenes of natural beauty, this film has nothing to offer. No coherent storyline, no character build-up, not a single trace of good cinematic language. What you hear is often non-corresponding to what you see.

      The director failed to utilise the acting talents of Mahfuz and Nasir Uddin other than in a very limited number of moments. Bubly's acting is a total failure.

      I would have selected a half-star rating if there was an option to do so.

      If you are reading this, please don't waste your time by watching this movie. If you decide to watch it anyway, I urge you to leave your honest review once you have watched it.

      Don't waste your time and money in cinema hall.

      This movie was released on eid ul adha so my family and I went to Cinema hall to watch it and trust it was the worst movie that I watch in cinema hall. Confusing plot, no sequence between story line. The editor has jumped one scene to another leaving audience confused and dumb founded. No character build up or where this character come from or what is his purpose you will never know. Too many editing mistake I have found throughout the movie. Female lead (Bubly) expression are very funny. Dialogues has no connection with the scene.

      Only Mahfuz ( lead male character) acting was good. Most of audience left the hall during half time.

      Don't waste you time for watching this disgusting movie

      An extremely boring movie. Listening to so many songs, I felt like I was coming to a music event. It drove us to the extremes of frustration. Finishing this movie is an extreme test of patience. And the way the chemistry is started between the hero and the heroine is very funny. The story has no plot. Nothing is clearly shown. The character of the police is extremely absurd. Trying to laugh with some forced dialogues. This is the most disgusting movie which I have ever seen. Just waste of time and money. People who loves watching boring and disgusting movies, they should watch this movie otherwise please don't waste your time.
