Kodi Ramakrishna, the director of the original film, got the idea for the movie after getting a National Award (Best Special Effects) for Anji(2004). This film was made after the director (might have) seen the original film's Hindi dubbed version in late 2013 (which the Bengali film directors mostly did for remaking these South Indian films). Sadly, Koel Mallick, Indraneil Sengupta, and other actors failed to do what was expected from this film. What we expected from Koel and Indranil wasn't this. Even Koel's body-language transformations for the titular character couldn't save this film from being a failure.
VFX - Not good.
Cinematography - Worse.
Acting - Overdone.
Result - Failed or "Wasted".
Our elders had told us, "Even the imitation has the limitation of common sense."
3 stars for Koel's efforts only!
