Awesome movie.... Tulonahin....
I generally don't write any review. But the brilliance of this movie forced me to open up an account here to write a review of it. I won't discuss the story line in my review because EVERY Bengali should watch this movie. Watching the movie was like getting deeply intoxicated with drugs , a feeling which can only be felt deep down inside your mind and heart , but hard to explain in words. Like all Bengali who claims that it would take another 500 year to replace the "Jaatishwar song by Kabir Suman", similarly it would take some 100 years for Bengal industry to churn out a movie of this calibre. Truly this is Srijit and Prosenjit's best work till date. Suddenly i forgot "Prabir Roy Choudhury" as "Kushal Hazra" completely over shadowed him. I don't know how many times I have watched this movie so far. Even if I watch it , it doesn't quench my thirst to watch it again. Last but not least Kabir Suman is incomparable. The music will stay with me till I die.To conclude, I would say one thing,there are some movies which you need to watch before you die & Jaatishwar is the only movie of that category. Highly recommended, if you miss this one, you are surely missing something great. A movie that will stay with me till I die.

Awesome
So beautifully crafted movie with an amazing story line and the music is just that you will listen, listen and listen. Hats off to the whole team who created this masterpiece. Bangla cinema is back and back with a bang and vengeance. I watched this movie 8 times from the day it got released and believe me every time I go to a journey that is so soulful and touching to your hearts. Maybe I sound crazy but this movie had made me bonkers to love the story to the extent that you just fall in love with it. A great movie by Srijitda. Hats off for compiling the stars around this movie so beautifully and Kabir Suman, no words speechless.
"A wonderfully done fusion of the lifestyles from past and present, from history to fiction."
Jaatishwar is a Bengali musical romantic drama. The plot mainly environs around the life of Hensman Anthony, a Bengali language folk poet. As the story traffics forward we get to know about the life stories of the other characters which were somewhat related to Anthony Firingee. There are many twists and turns in the story which I won't reveal for keeping the mysteries intact. I must say I am completely in love with the narration style of the entire flick with the magnificent melodies in between. Simply a prodigious director can depict the two periods running in parallel, the past and the present to pull the resemblances in between which makes the audience go awestruck.
Acting: This flick is actually the one of the best performances of Prosenjit Chatterjee. He conveys such a power-packed act in both the roles especially the character of Kushal Hazra is simply outstanding. No will dare to take a role in which individuals will start compare him for laying himself in Uttam Kumar's shoes. Jishu Sengupta has done a respectable job. Even I adored Swastika Mukherjee's role. Talking about the other credited casts we have Abir Chatterjee, Rahul Arunoday Banerjee, Mamata Shankar who are really good in their roles. I loved Ananya Chatterjee as Joggeshwari, it is short and stunning.
Direction: As I said before only a great director can portray such a wonderful narration. Though some scenes are a bit slow still it will not affect the entire film for sure. He has taken the best cast and best man for music and added his own ingredient and made it into a musical masterpiece. Srijit Mukherji's best after Baishe Srabon,for me.
Music: one word, Outstanding! It's a Kabir Suman show. Even the BGM by Indraadip Das Gupta adds a new feel to the movie.
Cinematography and Editing: Soumik Halder and Bodhaditya Banerjee - Sadhu Sadhu !!!
Verdict: I am really sad to see the empty seats of theaters. Please go watch #Jaatishwar. A must watch for all Bengalis, especially those who thinks it's a curse or do not feel proud for being the same. 4/5
