Antaheen is based on a story of the director Aniruddha Roy Choudhury. It shows urban life in a metro like Kolkata where relationships develop online, love and bonding exist even though couples live separately, and where longing, greed, journalistic scoop, parties and tragedies coalesce into an integrated whole. The film has a lyrical quality about it, and veterans like Aparna Sen and Sharmila Tagore are at their ravishing best.
In the film Aparna and Kalyan Ray play a couple who live separately. Aparna is an editor in a publishing house, while Kalyan is immersed in his own cushy life in Mumbai devouring books and downing fine wine. Radhika Apte plays a TV journalist on the lookout for sensational stories. She meets the cop (Rahul Bose) in a party and a relationship develops between them. There is an online angle to their relationship as well. The character of the cop (Rahul Bose) appears a bit too poetic for a cop.
The title of the film can be attributed to the 'endless wait' of some of the principal characters for their desires and longings to come to fruition. Like the character of Pishima (Sharmila Tagore) of the cop who waits for the unknown phone caller with whom she started a conversational relationship with an inkling of it having the potential of becoming a full blown one. Even the relationship of Aparna and Kalyan, quite affectionate at times, doesn't head towards reconciliation. As Rahul Bose's character says in the film "Possibly his brother Kalyan & sister-in-law Aparna aren't too sure of what they want from the relationship." Moreover, towards the end with the tragedy that transpired, would Rahul now wait endlessly for a reunion in after-life with his paramour?
The supporting cast includes Mita Vashisht, Arindam Sil and others.

Beautiful. For me, the movie was like an evening sky, slowly changing its colours and finally getting dark. A well scripted and directed movie with an amazing cast.

Its a classic. Top notch direction. Honestly I never knew this director. But as I watched this movie I wanted to know more about him. There are a very few directors whose second movie shows so much maturity. The movie circles around the upper middle class section of Kolkata. Some scenes amazingly depicts reality. The characters oh my God! are awesomely casted. Aparna Sen as usual brilliant, Rahul Bose with his Bengali accent has done an excellent job, Radhika Apte superb, Kalyan has really touched my heart with his amazing screen presence and as if the character he played is only made for him, Sharlmila Tagore awesome. Well I tell you the beauty of Kolkata is with its people and very practically you will meet some of them in this movie.

Amazing.. Nice story,screenplay..direction,casting..acting..really nice.. this should be a ideal movie style for the new generation of Indian movies..The emotions played through out the movie....and speaks everything..a deep romanticism which fly with inner feelings of hearts.. Rahul and Radhika did really what the story needs.. Aparna Sen and Sharmilaji were perfect with characters..Oh my God! Kalyan da,I think I don't want to see him other then this in real life too...what a amazing inner personality. The screenplay of this movie can take audience into the deep of it..and the name ANTAHEEN..is really suited through out the movie...

Just back from Antaheen.
A two hour neat poetry on celluloid, with sweetness emphasized by Rahul, Radhika, Aparna-Kalyan duo, Sharmila and the rest of the crew.
If you like poetry then its the movie for you.
Nice direction and just being opposite to Slumdog, it glorified the beauty of Kolkata.
The music is gorgeously good and among the best (if not the best of all times) in recent times Bengali movies.
Shreya's voice is really becoming haunting with every passing day. A 10/10 overall.
A movie that will move you. A 10/10 In all respects. FLAWLESS.

This is not a movie, it is a poetry flowing from the beginning to the very end. The background music is so soithing, that I end up crying sometimems. If you love poetry, relations, literature and classic things, this is what u need to see. I watch Antaheen once every fortnight and will continue to watch it for the rest of my life.

This is an Art and i love to watch this movie when i get time and i pass my day in laziness with this movie. The life styles of upper middle class portrait in this artfilm. Background music and other scenes are undoubtedly amazin. Specially in a rainy day, this movie is perfect to watch at home.

The movie is not up to the mark as an art film. The storyline is very feeble. The message behind the so called "urban" love in the movie is so unrealistic and absurd. An art film should be a mirror of human life not a mirage of 'distant' love.
