Shontaan

The narrative may have its fair share of shortcomings, particularly in the writing that contributed to a subdued second half (with the sole exception of the ending), it still managed to evoke an wide spectrum of emotions that such stories are meant to inspire.

As someone who values emotional connections with on-screen characters, I found the experience to be cathartic. Even though I do not typically gravitate towards family dramas, this one struck a chord that set it apart from others.

Not to mention, performances by both Anashua Mam and Mithun Daa were profoundly moving; their portrayals felt sincere and, most importantly genuine in intent.

Lastly I just wanna say, take care of your Mom & Dad they have sacrificed much for your well being all they seek in return is your love and affection.

They won't ask for anything more, once they are gone, nothing will ever be the same. Cherish every moment while you can.

This is one of Mithun Chakraborty's best performances wouldn't be an understatement. As others mentioned, the cast is tailor-made. There are absolutely flaws in cinematography, editing, background score but the actors made it their own. Storyline is just as symmetry to this genre, but Mithun Chakraborty and in some scenes Ritwik have outperformed.

The other castes supported well to brew this old story to a finer liquor - absolutely worth watching.

Raj Chakraborty as a director is blooming with time and will wish to watch some more. This should be commercially acclaimed to the TGs if properly marketed.

But actor Mithun Chakraborty has owned this one - he won the show and the audience again with his charm, apt emotions and subtle gentleness.

This film depicts Saradindu ( #MithunChakraborty ) meeting a lawyer ( #SubhasreeGanguly ) to lodge a legal case against his neglectful son Indranil ( #RitwickChakraborty ), who refuses to take responsibility for his old and ailing parents.

The direction by #RajChakraborty is good, but nothing to shout about. The screenplay by Sreejib and additional screenplay by Anuja Chattopadhyay & Soumyabrata Rakshit ( with dialogues ) are gripping, but the second half is a bit dragged.

The story by Sreejib is cliché. You may have had a déjàvu while watching hindi films Baghban, Waqt or bengali films Latthi, Posto and few more bordering on the same topic partially. Old wine served in a new bottle you may say.

Cinematography by #ManasGanguly is average.

Editing by #MdKalam could have been crisper by 10 minutes or so. The flashback scenes have been well juxtaposed.

Music by #JeetGanguli & Background score by #AmitChaterjee is respectively moderate and good as per the screenplay.

As per the performances are concerned, the actors have excelled in their individual parts with distinction marks. Even the supporting actors looked tailor-made. National Award and Dadasaheb Phalke winner Mithun Chakraborty, Ritwick Chakraborty and #AnashuaMajumdar in lead roles have given their best performances, while #SohiniSengupta, #BiswajitChakraborty, #ShomaChakraborty and #AhanaDutta has lent abled support in their roles. #KharajMukherjee and Subhasree Ganguly were awesome in their duel.

The Production house #SVF, produced by #ShrikantMohta and #MahendraSoni under the banner of #ShreeVenkateshFilms has made a good and emotional film.

Elderly people, urban audience and youngstars must watch it to get a most important and relevant social message. Kudos to the whole team. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

It's a a one of the best flim in 2024 nice story excellent acting and the direction was so good. Even the star cast was perfect I watched with my mom and it's create another level memory for us. Specially Mithun Chakraborty was fabulous as always. And thanks to the whole team to make such flim on this kind of topics which need to be highlighted and there should be learning things for society. Atlast thanks Jeet Ganguly sir for your amezing songs it's highly recommended movie every one should wath this kind of film with family and parents and support for future Bengali movie like shontaan. Thanks again.

Outstanding movie.

During the controversy I thought the movie might be avarage but after watching the movie I can definitely say Movie was great,Raj Chakroborty great direction, Mithun da's splendid performance.. Rittik also.. Subhashree very average performance. Even at this age he can ruin the box office...Very great acting sense...New generation actors should learn like Dev Jeet.

Pros: Mithun, Story, Direction, Rittik and others actors. Last 30 min is just awesome.

Cons: very less. I can say Son's character might be well established.

After Porineetaa..Shontan..I can the day the best movie of Raj Chakroborty.
