This movie is one of the greatest films Bangladesh has ever seen. While we were grimacing about bangla cinemas and their stupid stories, this movie just broke all barriers and took Bangladeshi films to the next level by introducing the people with the power of love..... The acting, direction, the places where the film was shooted is really worth of praise. The songs, THE SONGS were the best!....I loved this film and would appreciate if this type of films are created further. The story is great, the quality is good and the acting is superb!Chanchal and Farhana did a great job. Hope to see movies like this in the future too....
This movie is undoubtedly one of the best movies in the history of Bangladeshi film industry. The story, the plot, the acting, and the cinematography were simply outstanding. This film depicts the cultural heritage of rural Bangladesh. It also highlights the social injustice that allows upper class people to exploit the poverty of the less fortunates. Certainly, love does not require any possession and it can unite two people unconditionally forever - this movie shows that truth from the rural Bangladeshi point of view.
Before watching Monpura, i didn't expect a lot from it. I liked the music before the movie released. Music was fabulous. Arnob once again proved why he is considered as one of the most meritorious musicians in Banglandesh. I should tell something about the story of the movie. It was not that much memorable to me. But yes its making, sceneries were excellent. I recommend all the Bangladeshis to watch it and promote young generation to come forward for making good movies. Though there were enough room for the movie to improve it's story. Chanchal Chowdhury (as Sonai) seemed like he was acting in a drama. Farhana Mili (Pori) was mind blowing in her character. We are expecting better movies from the same director.
It's an awesome movie which presents the traditional Bengali culture. With that, it's story line is more than awesome. Cinematography, music, direction, acting...all make it a really great movie. One of the blockbuster hit movies in the Bangladeshi film history. Those who actually don't watch Bangladeshi film, it's a good starting for them. After a long time, there's a change in movie making in Bangladesh. Hats off to Giasuddin Selim, the director of the movie. While watching it, you can enjoy the natural scenario of Bangladesh. Life in the land of river has been brought in the movie. Try this. Hope, you'll enjoy watching it.
This movie didn't bored me even for a bit. Its authentic acting and flawless expression of every actor is really impressive. Best Romantic tragedy movie ever. Monpura can not be out of list of the best film in domestic film industry. Not to mention the four National Film award in Five category. Including the best film. It is also remade in Kolkata under the name ' Achin pakhi '.
