Bengali Review: 'Aparajita Tumi' is too familiar

Fri, 20 Jan 2012 01:33:00 +0530

Bengali cinema has come of age but a few more steps towards something new would not hurt. While on one hand they regularly dish out the commercial fare, they also pull out an occasional gem from the everyday and the common place. However, when it comes to relationships - as experimental and bold Bengali movies have tried to be - they are still a tad bit stereotypical and predictable.

Bengali Review: 'Baishey Shrabon' is stunning

Sat, 01 Oct 2011 08:34:38 +0530

Srijit Mukherji calls his 'Baishey Shrabon' a dark and violent thriller. Dark it is, but so stunningly dark.
