Mitin Mashi Film Review
Mitin Mashi is a captivating and skillfully crafted film. It seamlessly blends the enchanting tabla beats with the intense fight sequences of the private investigator, Pragya Paromita, also known as Mitin. From the very first fight scene to the final moments of the film, each frame is presented with a genuine and meticulous approach, without any sense of forced treatment. The simplicity and attention to detail throughout the film make it a truly enjoyable experience for the audience.
Koel is mature in her portrayal of the central character. From looking fit to appearing relatable, she pulls of one of her career best roles with élan. Every thriller needs an interesting breaking point and this film is no different. Though the second half is exciting, it is much stylised. But in keeping with the modern times and references of WhatsApp aiding Mitin mashi’s investigation, the stylisation don’t look out of place.
Subhrajit Dutta, who plays Koel’s on-screen husband, looks the part and enacts the scenes equally well. Whether it’s his screen presence or Koel’s ability to get under the skin of the character well, they look every bit the childless but happy married couple. Riya Banik, who plays Koel’s neice, Tupur, also fits in well. She plays out her age and innocence well while assisting her aunt. From the very first scene that introduces Vinay Pathak as Koel’s on-screen client, he becomes the Parsi gentleman he plays. Given the actor's calibre, he could have been given a longer screen time. June Malia supports him well.
There are not many loose ends in the screenplay and the direction is sleek too aided by good editing. Rashid Khan’s beautiful rendition of a background song adds more sheen to the good musical scores in the film. Perhaps, the high volume percussion used at the background is too loud at times but it brings newness in the fight scenes, which usually has sounds like stomping of shoes and thudding of falling bodies.
