Being an aspiring Filmmaker I watched this movie little differently. First of all the story is 10/10 no doubt. But the Screenplay is dense near the end (as like 22 e srabon ). Being a non-linier playscript it is heavily disoriented throughout the movie. Editing and Colors have their flaw 100% but it didn't looked too bad or like the director (Srijit) forced it to be what called different. Some parts of the movie is shamelessly influenced by foreign directors (Todd Phillips). The cinema is all the way on the shoulder of "22 e srabon" which gave it an advantage in the first place in the proof of that Srijit puts a big chucks of 22 e srabon in this film. Although it's an "True sequel" but it felt like he was using 22 e srabon as a nostalgia to make us like this film which is awkward and at the same time silly. At the end as a job of a director Srijit Mukherjee did a normie or as we call it as average job,but due to the strength of the story he hardly balanced it to be a good film. And why I am praising only about the story is, when you get out of the theater, the only thing that would stuck in your matter is one and only the story but nothing else. Although in the first hour there's a bunch of sprouts that should enjoy the audience. Dialogues are balanced and little bended towards psychology as it should in the sequel but it is good, not more & not less than being godd. The acting is impeccable just impeccable. And the Cinematography is okaish. The film should get a 5.5 to 6 out of 10 in my consciousness but the overall film is not that bad.

The story is quite mesmerizing in the context of the city. However, it was too dense at the end.

I feel the useless romantic part take away the greatness of the plot by stealing screentime

A good ending. But the reason it is not a good sequel is because there is a gap in the storyline of Baishe Srabon and this movie. It felt like the director never planned for the second movie when he made the first one. The first one came organically to him and that is why it will always be one of the good Bengali movies. The second film is something that the director made may be under compulsion or may be just to make a sequel. So the sequel did not work for me. Anirban's acting is like he is acting on stage and is not natural. But rest of the actors are good.

Watch the movie without the expectation to surpass your experience of watching 22se srabon. Script is okay type..dialogues are good.....finding of this story is 'why'(instead of finding 'who' in 22se srabon.) Acting is very good...ritabroto , anirban & param have done exceptional job. As this is the sequel of "22se srabon",everywhere you will be directed to the flashback, which seems to be little repeatative at times..(specially for the keen watchers of 22se srabon). The twist at the end is the real surprise for viewers...good job done by srijit....though naked portray of homosexuality content could have been avoided at the last scene. What can happen between two lovers(irrespective of gender) is well known. Last but not the least ,"prabir da"we miss u a lot.

The pick up tone of the film was very much unique. And the plot too developed in an intense manner. But somehow if the end was kept open and left for the audience it would have been the highest grossing film and plot itself would have created a lot of fanbase. But somehow the introduction of some bizzard logics related to mental health issues went over my mind. I was disappointed by the ending. But the performances were great including Parambrata Chattopadhyay, Anirban Bhattacharya and Rwitobrata Mukherjee.
