About the story: There is nothing much to tell about the story because all of you, who have seen the trailer, know that the story is about a cop and a thief. The cop is played by Abir Chatterjee whereas the role of the dacoit is played by Shiboprosad Mukherjee. The conflict between them, the game of chasing- all these form the premises of the film.
About the cast and the crew: The film stars Abir Chatterjee, Ritabhari Chakraborty, Shiboprosad Mukhopadhyay, Koushani Mukherjee, Pradip Bhattacharya, Manasi Sinha and others.
About the director and producer: The film is directed by the most successful director duo of Bengal- Shiboprosad Mukherjee and Nandita Roy. It is produced by Windows Production House.
About the film: Friends, in this one film, there are comedy, romance, investing drama, action thrill and everything. And if we talk about Shiboprosad Mukherjee's performance in this film, every word of praise would fall short. In this film he has played the titular character of bohurupi or the polymorphous and has taken up various looks althrough out the film. And he has carried off every look so efficiently, that it is giving goosebumps. His inferiority complex, his angry outbursts, his pain and suffering every emotion has been portrayed by him with utmost sincerity. No words can describe his performance in this movie. And not only Shiboprosad, here we also get to see Koushani in an absolutely different avatar. In this movie she is absolutely different and her performance is also very good. A Romantic relationship between Shiboprosad and Kaushani is showed in the film that is, a relation between a pick pocket and a dacoit. Their comedy, romance, on-screen chemistry; everything has taken the film to a different level.
Friends, in the movie, Shiboprosad Mukherjee is seen in the role of a bank robber who goes to different banks, impresses the managers with his stories and plunders the money. Not only Shiboprosad but in the movie he has a gang, who operates with him and their bonding is so strong, their stories are so unique that it seems that along with Shiboprosad, they are also the protagonists in the film. Seperately, each of them is a hero of this movie and their performance is excellent.
Another important thing is that, in this movie a tussle is shown between Shiboprosad Mukherjee and Abir Chatterjee and the entire story of the film has culminated into that tussle. And I feel that the story somewhere has resemblance with the story of Vikram Betaal. We have read those stories in Bengali, we have also seen these stories as cartoons. Betaal used to hang from shoulder of Vikram and move from one place to another. Similarly here, Shiboprosad 's character in the movie is moving from one place to another, holding onto Abir's character. This has added a touch of comedy to the film. The script of the film revolves around bank robbery, which actually took place in south 24 Parganas, at Raipur. Several incidents of bank robbery took place during the span of 1998 to 2003. Based on this real life incident the script has been written and those who know about these incidents, can very well relate to the film.
The character of the cop, his constant effort to catch the criminal all these things are very beautifully shown in the movie. Besides Shiboprosad Mukherjee's performance, Abir Chatterjee also deserves special mention. His attitude, his way of speaking, his swag; everything has built up his image as a rough and tough cop. Alongside Abir, Ritabhari's character is also very interesting. Her homely look, her small tiffs with Abir- all in all she looks perfect with him.
Coming to the technical part, the colour gradation, background score everything is brilliant. The colour edit has been done perfectly and in accordance with the demand of the script. The songs of the film are mind blowing. At the climax, we will get to listen to a song which has been sung by shilajit himself. This film has all the ingredients to make the audience sit through the whole length of the film with equal eagerness and anticipation.
At the end I would like to mention that everyone showcases the problems faced by women but nobody brings forth the issues which men also have to face. But Windows production house, through this film, has highlighted the problems which are faced by the men in the society. This is going to impress the audience and I would recommend all of you to go and watch the movie in the hall and to let us know your opinion about the film.
Verdict: The film is already a blockbuster and is gaining popularity with every passing day. The strong word of mouth publicity and stupendous praise by the media is sure to help the movie on a national level, as it is gearing up for a pan India release on 18th October.
