Dard

First time i watched ananno manum's directed film......his direction was good and the polt twist i got in theatre was just unprecedented and emotional.... First half was slow but 2nd half recovered this....khan's acting skill is just superb.... His transformation was just wow i won't tell here what transformed :) and sonal chauhan's acting was good..... Background music was moderate but sometimes it was good to me.....but i really disappointed with music that is dubbed from hindi version... Hindi version song was good but Bangla was not good enough it could be better.... I think mamun should bring a sequel....

This obviously proofs one point that doom is right upon us. The dialogue, acting performance, elements were poorly executed. Visuals effects, color depth, looks backward. Set pieces feels unrealistic. Story has no major plotpoint its underwritten. The filmmakers, screeners & production is only to be blamed. Because, of their ignorance & inexperience bd cinema is near its extinction.

Number of cinema halls & Stars are insufficient. Most of them lacking dance, acting, appearances & figure compare to Bollywood. They're just here for the paycheck & don't care if their film performance or creating aware There busy making headlines of their controversies, remarriage & divorce. And film industry dont even hire & search for new talents from the society or general public. Look around even Nezha 2, Pushpa 2 both burnt their pre existing box office records & created their own record in global. Also War 2 & Avatar 3 even making news when its far from release.

Now where are we & what we have to complete. Furthermore, law & certification is hindering process of creativity & making. Method of giving rating & approval by content according to the age should be followed. Industry insiders must address this issue properly before its too late.

Shakib Khan has always proven his versatility and immense talent as an actor. In "DARD-Dorod", he once again shows that there is no limit to improvement. The film presents Shakib Khan in a more refined and powerful avatar, solidifying his position as one of the greatest actors of our time. Watching him perform in "DARD-Dorod" left me in awe-it's undoubtedly one of his best performances to date. This film feels like a groundbreaking addition to Bangladeshi cinema.

Today, I watched the highly anticipated movie "DARD-Dorod", which has brought a new dimension to Bangladeshi cinema. Psychological thrillers are rare in any industry, let alone in ours. But "DARD-Dorod" introduces this genre with a fresh perspective, exploring the concept of Celebrity Worship Syndrome (CWS)-a psychological disorder characterized by an obsessive fascination with celebrities.

Among all the psychological thrillers I've seen, this is the only film that has tackled CWS as a central theme. It's a unique Genre & applied for the first in any Bangladeshi cinema (I think this is the first ever film with this theme), and it's executed successfully. If you enjoy Psychological Thriller films, you're likely to appreciate "DARD-Dorod".

To truly grasp the film's purpose, you'll need to stay engaged until the very end, as the director masterfully unveils the motivations behind the characters step by step.

What impressed me most was the stellar performance by our Megastar, Shakib Khan. His nuanced acting and expressive eyes make "DARD-Dorod" a memorable experience. His performance in the end scenes is so emotionally compelling that it will leave many in tears. This is the Shakib Khan we want to see more of-one who captivates the audience effortlessly.

The chemistry between Shakib Khan and Sonal Chauhan was amazing; they felt perfectly in sync, despite being from different countries. Everyone will love this pairing, and both delivered flawless performances.

Supporting cast members like Rahul Dev, Payel Sarkar, Alok Jain, and Rajesh Sharma also gave commendable performances. However, I expected a bit more from Payel Sarkar's character. New Bangladeshi actress Safa Marwa also appeared in the film, and she did a good job while adding a touch of glamour to the screen.

The setting of the film primarily revolves around Varanasi, India. The cinematography and visuals were enjoyable, with excellent camera work and soothing color palettes. However, I felt the locations could have been utilized even more effectively to enhance the narrative depth.

The background score was phenomenal, enhancing the emotional depth of each scene. The music during Shakib Khan's walk in the final sequence was especially captivating. The film features three songs, with "Jism Mein Tere" partially used as background music in certain scenes, which blended beautifully with the narrative.

If I were to point out flaws, there are.

After the brilliance of Toofan, expectations for Dard (2024) were naturally sky-high. Unfortunately, the movie doesn't come close to delivering. Directed by Anonno Mamun, it feels like a rushed project with lackluster execution across most areas.

While Shakib Khan's performance is, as always, commendable and the plot had some potential, the rest falls flat. The casting feels uninspired, the cinematography and color grading are dull, and the script is riddled with clichés and glaring plot holes. It's an odd mix of typical Dhallywood melodrama with hints of Tollywood flair, but the execution lacks polish.

Despite Shakib Khan's best efforts to elevate the movie, Dard is ultimately a letdown. If you're a die-hard fan, it might be worth a watch for him alone, but otherwise, it's skippable.

Rating: 4/10.

I can never raise questions about Shakib Khan's acting. He is a genuine pride of our Bangladesh. In Dard, he has given such a good expression that the role of thriller has increased to a large extent.

The way the plot is arranged by the director, writer Mr. Ananya Mamun, is undoubtedly of international standard. I expect more good movies from him.

Funny but ironic, the cinematography is so good that you hold your pee so as not to miss a single part of the movie. VFX , BGM , color grading are in one word outstanding. Everyone tried to give the best from his place. That should be it. Sonal Chauhan's simple, soft Bengali look has impressed me.

Go watch at your near theatre. Happy Watching!
