About the Trailer Review
The name itself suggest a magical perspective. Seeing the trailer I too felt that magic. Sabyasachi Chakraborty is in the lead role. He himself saying that he has walked miles in Tollypara. At the same time, he has read numerous books just to make a good cinema. His wish to do this is still intact. What happens next? Is he making the films? This is not clear in the trailer but it seems whatever stories is in his mind are reflected sequentially in the trailer. The interesting part I found that Sabyasachi is narrating one by one story and that is being shown in the trailer. If the trailer looks so interesting, then imagine how the film will impact? I can comment on this only after watching the film.
Storyline & Scripting
I liked the storyline but to be noted there are different stories inside this storyline. As I understood from the trailer, there are three to four individual stories in this film. Every story has a different genre. One is horror orient, another carries suspense and murder, one story follows comedy. The new glimpse I see here is the blending of four different genres of stories in one film. Now talking about the script. I personally liked each script of the stories being narrated. Since there are four different stories that is why I mentioned individual script. From the trailer what I understood is that whichever character is going with the flavor of the story, the scripting has been done accordingly. I must appreciate the dialogues implemented for the characters. This is also a positive side of this trailer.
Location & Character Selection
I will also appreciate the director for the selection of the location. The location needed for any specific genre of a movie is here in this trailer even the character selection is good. The person who is narrating the story looks same like Satyajit Ray. Sabyasachi has done pretty well even the kids and their way of working is appreciable.
Technical part
Editing and color grading is good but I personally feel if the editor would have worked a bit on the scenes, then the film could have gained more response. We wish that it may reach the height but as I always say, Trailer is itself a film, this is the only reason I feel trailer could have been far better. The background music is quite good. There is no individual background score for the stories implemented but an overall background score sounds nice.
Film Festivals & Awards
In Northeast International Documentary & Film Festival, Sabyasachi Chakraborty has won the best actor and Raja Chatterjee awarded with the best screenplay. It has also won the best narrative film award in Sangrur International Film Festival.
Verdict
The rest I can comment only after watching the film. The overall making of the trailer impressed me and I expect to get more impressed by watching the film.
