The Eken Ruddhaswas Rajasthan

Although I stay outside West Bengal , I have keenly watched the evolution of the prevalent genre of Bengali movies... some of them have been extremely mature and bold while the rest have been extremely poor... I have watched the other movie and web series of Eken Babu earlier and found it amusing , unorthodox but lacking the so called finesse to bring the audience to theatres in droves... Hence this time , I didn't have much expectation and just booked tickets to celebrate the Bengali New Year... But the movie pleasantly surprised us ... this is one of the finest Bengali adventure movie made during recent times ... it was funny but immensely enjoyable .. lot of twists and turns which couldn't be predicted... the direction is good , editing is amazing but the dialogues and cinematography are simply world class ... the camera told a beautiful story and the location and occasional quips from the detective were a wonderful tribute to the maestro Satyajit Ray's Sonar Kella... overall a must watch for all , especially for kids and teenagers ... a clean and enjoyable movie where the intermission elicited a gasp from the audience due to the flow getting interrupted ... I haven't seen such a response for a long time ...

I thought let's see a movie 'Ruddhaswas' type. But after watching, I think it's really waste of my time. Making is something like that some immature people made it.

Mostly the detective 'Eken' is hugely a boring character. He's not funny but boring. I don't want to watch him again and again!

Some people acted nicely as they normally do. Sudip Mukherjee and Rajatava Dutta were great. Location was fine, best for making a detective type movie.

But who made this movie bothersome? Yes, definitely the EKEN. I truly don't like this character. This character could be developed in another way and the movie could be much better I think.

Amazing movie to say the least !!!

A strong and gripping story line..super editing....brilliant cinematography...with Rajasthan (specifically Jaisalmer) presented wonderfully...and that's the icing on the cake !!!

Anirban Chakrabarti...no words to express what you have done as Eken Babu !!! Bulls Eye ...yet again !!! Your expressions...Your timing...Your Eyes...Your Expressions ...PRICELESS !!!

Other Star Casts...have done justice to their assigned roles !!!

Thanks to the Director..Joydip Mukherjee for giving us this film & moments...which will surely go into the archives as one of the best made films !!!

I liked the movie very well, I passed it quite well. I'm not a film critic, I don't have the standards or qualifications required of a mass person to be a person. I just can say about my likes & dislikes only. I felt one flaw, the whole movie was shot in different places of Rajasthan, but for once I didn't see a peacock. Sudeep Mukhi liked the role of suspense. He is mostly seen in negative roles, he likes positive roles. Rest actors/actress are quite well to handle their character. It was bit nostalgic to saw "Sonar Kella" and "circuit house", recalls the childhood memory of the greatest movie "Sonar Kella" by Mr. Satyajit Ray.

I rated it with 3 stars primarily due to the cast, with the exception of Soumak, whose performance was disappointing, and while the overall atmosphere seemed reminiscent of Breaking Bad Episode 2, it was executed poorly, and furthermore, the chemical compound referenced for dissolving bodies would inevitably dissolve the bathtub as well, indicating a lack of attention to detail; the overarching issue lies in the cheap imitation mentality and absence of originality, which have the potential to significantly undermine the integrity of this long-standing franchise.

They should work more on the plot.
