    Mithun Chakraborty Shines as a Legend in an Emotionally Gripping Masterpiece

    I watched an amazing movie. We all went to the theater together, bought tickets, and watched it. Just leaving the review, tears came to my eyes. The entire theater was silent, everyone had tears in their eyes. Oh, what an incredible performance by Mithun Chakraborty! This is why he is our pride, our "Mahaguru." Not for a single moment did it feel like I was watching a movie; it felt like the events were unfolding right in front of me, and I was witnessing them. Ritwick, Anasuya, Kharaj, Subhashree-each of them acted so beautifully.

    Oh, one more thing: when Mithun Chakraborty transitioned from playing the role of a father to an aggressive, rebellious character, the entire theater erupted in applause. It was a sight to behold! Truly, Mithun Chakraborty, you were, are, and always will be a legendary actor in the hearts of every person.

    Old Wine served in a New Bottle

    This film depicts Saradindu ( #MithunChakraborty ) meeting a lawyer ( #SubhasreeGanguly ) to lodge a legal case against his neglectful son Indranil ( #RitwickChakraborty ), who refuses to take responsibility for his old and ailing parents.

    The direction by #RajChakraborty is good, but nothing to shout about. The screenplay by Sreejib and additional screenplay by Anuja Chattopadhyay & Soumyabrata Rakshit ( with dialogues ) are gripping, but the second half is a bit dragged.

    The story by Sreejib is cliché. You may have had a déjàvu while watching hindi films Baghban, Waqt or bengali films Latthi, Posto and few more bordering on the same topic partially. Old wine served in a new bottle you may say.

    Cinematography by #ManasGanguly is average.

    Editing by #MdKalam could have been crisper by 10 minutes or so. The flashback scenes have been well juxtaposed.

    Music by #JeetGanguli & Background score by #AmitChaterjee is respectively moderate and good as per the screenplay.

    As per the performances are concerned, the actors have excelled in their individual parts with distinction marks. Even the supporting actors looked tailor-made. National Award and Dadasaheb Phalke winner Mithun Chakraborty, Ritwick Chakraborty and #AnashuaMajumdar in lead roles have given their best performances, while #SohiniSengupta, #BiswajitChakraborty, #ShomaChakraborty and #AhanaDutta has lent abled support in their roles. #KharajMukherjee and Subhasree Ganguly were awesome in their duel.

    The Production house #SVF, produced by #ShrikantMohta and #MahendraSoni under the banner of #ShreeVenkateshFilms has made a good and emotional film.

    Elderly people, urban audience and youngstars must watch it to get a most important and relevant social message. Kudos to the whole team. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

    Splendid performance of Mithun

    Outstanding movie.

    During the controversy I thought the movie might be avarage but after watching the movie I can definitely say Movie was great,Raj Chakroborty great direction, Mithun da's splendid performance.. Rittik also.. Subhashree very average performance. Even at this age he can ruin the box office...Very great acting sense...New generation actors should learn like Dev Jeet.

    Pros: Mithun, Story, Direction, Rittik and others actors. Last 30 min is just awesome.

    Cons: very less. I can say Son's character might be well established.

    After Porineetaa..Shontan..I can the day the best movie of Raj Chakroborty.

    Hit all the right emotional notes for me.

    The narrative may have its fair share of shortcomings, particularly in the writing that contributed to a subdued second half (with the sole exception of the ending), it still managed to evoke an wide spectrum of emotions that such stories are meant to inspire.

    As someone who values emotional connections with on-screen characters, I found the experience to be cathartic. Even though I do not typically gravitate towards family dramas, this one struck a chord that set it apart from others.

    Not to mention, performances by both Anashua Mam and Mithun Daa were profoundly moving; their portrayals felt sincere and, most importantly genuine in intent.

    Lastly I just wanna say, take care of your Mom & Dad they have sacrificed much for your well being all they seek in return is your love and affection.

    They won't ask for anything more, once they are gone, nothing will ever be the same. Cherish every moment while you can.
