      Don't watch it with high expectations.

      This movie we are confused about cinematic plots. Too many songs are disturbing us. The end of the movements is only 15mins short stories, Mr, Mahfuz was doing perfect action as per the cinema plot. The cinematography & edition was on average, too much music is boring to me, personally the movie was the worst of my money & time. Maximum audiences are disappointed about too many songs and without marching stories. End the story's last 15-20mins are outstanding balance plot, this movie has so many stories that need more information, the lead actress is poor at activities this movie, and the other actors are on average acting.

      Don't waste you time for watching this disgusting movie

      This is the worst movie I have ever seen, what they are trying to say they can't understand themselves, what is going on with the story, and why is it happening, it is filled with unnecessary stories.

      Prohelika is Amazing movie

      This movie absolutely amazing. Thank you the director for giving us this type of movie which is different from typical Bengali movie. Actor and actress act amazingly in this movie especially Bubly & Mahfuz Ahmed. All actor and actress are superb. Their acting make the movie superb. Movie songs are also superb. If you will watch this movie you will fall in love with Arpa.this movie is different from typical Bengali movie. Female character is important in this movie story this things are different from other Bengali movie. I wish the director & Bubli, Mahfuz Ahmed give us another this type of movie.

      A Good Movie to Watch

      If you love movie with a strong storyline, Prahelika is for you. Actors and Actress all show their class through acting. All of the songs were treat to ears but the number of songs may be a problem. Mrs Chayonika Chowdhury has a good manner of telling her story which makes the plot more attractive and mystrious. Background music was good but sometimes it seems too loud. After 8 years it is a pleasure to see Mahfuz Ahmed in Screen. Bubly enthrals through her presence. There is Nothing much to say about Nasiruddin Ahmed. Finally I realy appreciate comic sense of Rashed Apu. Audience is likely to have a pleasant watch.

      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.
