बुआ जी के गेहने

One of the best movies I ever watched!!! Everything about this movie is perfect. Casting, cinematography, dialogues, acting, songs everything!

This movie is not for everyone, and its not as bad as the reviews suggests.. its not flawless and bit slow at some parts, but definitely worth a watch..

OK, I have read all 5 reviews (up to my writing) and found some disappointments from reviewers. But I've found more amusing things than errors which are more strong than these errors.

Although we have got a good numbers of spectacular movies from Aparna Sen and it's another. Yes, "Goynar Baksho" is a long story but she tried her best to represent all in 2.5hours. Because you must have to consider the tricks to grab "Audiences" of all classed and regions. May be she have some future plan about '71 liberation War (Just my assumption).

In a single word it's a complete movie with complete sense of making. Superb set, screenplay, cinematography. Most importantly dialogues. Just amazing. But I must say Konkona Sen Sharma acted 20% of her acting skill. I think a poor performance came from her in this movie. May be director could choose a different actress replacing Konkona who would be fit for this character.

Now telling something boring stuffs about Bangladeshi directors. More or less Aparna Sen had putted '71 plot here inside this movie and I should say it's a brave stuff, where Bangladeshi directors or film makers are not so interested to work with this beautiful plot (except some movies like Guerrilla, MeherNigar, Amar Bondhu Rashed and some other more). They just think complete war film with this plot. But I must say they can put this plot into commercial film like this "Goynar Baksho". Salute and thanks Aparna Sen to use this '71 plot.

At very end of my review, I'm thanking to the Director/Writer of this movie "not to let her(Somlata) go with that Rose hold poet lover". :)

Aparna Sen's 'Goynar Baksho' has received heavy criticism mostly with regards to the imbalanced plot and drastic change in the third act. To be honest, the third act did feel like a sudden change in both tone and story and heavily rushed. It ought to have been further developed and more humour could have been added (to balance it adequately with the rest of the picture). Moreover, the connection with the first half felt weak. There should have been more focus on the mother-daughter relationship than just that one scene. Maybe Sen could have left this act for a whole other film, a sequel. That would have given room for the story and characters to flesh out.

And now for the plusses, the first and second act are sheer delight. It's a bit like watching a hilarious folktale and it's beautifully shot. The colourful visuals (sets, costumes and landscape) are stunning. I've never seen CGI of this high quality in any Indian film. Sen has obviously hired some of the best technicians and designers. The cinematography and score are first rate.

Not to take anything away from Aparna Sen and her crew's input but what would have 'Goynar Baksho' been without the fabulous performances of Moushumi Chatterjee and Konkona Sen Sharma. I doubt Moushumi's done anything like this before but she's at her best here. The same goes for Konkonaas she holds her own. Their shared scenes are the highlights of 'Goynar Baksho' and most of them had me laughing out loud.

To sum it up, this isn't Aparna Sen's best work but it's amusing, entertaining and visually satisfying nonetheless.

It's a great film 🎥. It's basically a story of a woman ðŸ'© set in 1950's West Bengal and her family ðŸ'ª. The movie 🎬 fails to impress as soon as it starts but it takes at most 10 minutes to gain your attention. It paces forward like a comedy film which doesn't have stupid impractical punch lines. The comic elements are provided by the out dated society and the ingesting characteristics of the family members. The protagonist will really impress you. The dirty is really amazing and the sub plots beautifully shows the forgotten Bengal. The movie gets a sudden change in mood around in the middle and started moving on with seriousness but with out becoming a bit less interesting. A part of the movie is dedicated to Bengal.... In short this movie offers a lot and is a #mustWatch....
