Going by the motto of Satyajit Ray, whose screenplay this movie tried to adopt so desperately, a good movie requires a good script, taut dialogues and definitely good actors. In this movie, unfortunately, script was not original, dialogues were far from natural and other than Prosenjit, everyone else lacked professional acting abilities. Direction lacked conviction in numerous situations. Lack of good dialogues often indulged overlapping conversations of two characters, leading to a very uncomfortable vibe. Character development in some cases were very weak. The part played by Rudraprasad Sengupta needed a very sincere attention, as it was the building block of the character of the hero. Although Prosenjit was very diligent in executing his emotions, the entire sequence with Rudraprasad fell flat on its face.
Only positives that can be taken out of this movie is probably the courageous approach to produce something different out of a known cult classic of Bengali cinema, especially knowing the fact that majority audiences of Bengal hardly ever pardons a movie which dares to modify an established work of art.
