Kishmish

This is one rare instance where a film with immense potential started going downhill right from the beginning. Rather than giving us a family drama plus love story - all of which went through lackluster dialogues and sluggish pace - the film could have focused on how a "good-for-nothing", lethargic boy grows up to be a man, it could have taken the route of a coming-of-age story where we find out how Tintin grows up to be a successful cartoonist while also exploring his personal life on the side. It could have been a decent version of Wake Up Sid but all we get is a unholy mixture of Hum Tum, Love Aaj Kal, Kal Ho Na Ho, and Main Hoon Na. None of this adds anything consequential to the film. The performances are mostly one note or plain bad, except for Kharaj Mukherjee who hits the ball out of the park in every scene he is in - watch for him in the comic scenes and in one particular father-son moment on the terrace. Other than him, none of the others leave a long-lasting impression. Dev is well being Dev yet again, Rukmini falters in every scene she is in and what was that accent all about?! June Malia, Kamaleshwar Mukherjee are plain one-note. The film has decent cinematography but the animations are cool touches - though largely reminiscent of the Saif-Rani starrer "Hum Tum". The music was just about okay. You may give it a try if you are up for just watching Kharaj Mukherjee in fine form else you may skip this and wait for a long queue of Bengali films coming up.

It's a fantastic movie. Just go and watch it.. kharaj sir did a fantastic job. Superstar Dev is going to be great actor. His acting is improving day by day.

In one word KISHMISH film is SUPERB.

After a long time bengali film industry make a good romantic film with superb music & dialogue.

Kishmish all about a romantic journey.

The lead pair, DEV & RUKMINI are doing great work. Nilayan Chatterjee is doing the best for music & lyrics. 👍

First of all thanks to Dev for bringing such a movie, for giving chances the new comer directors. I watched this movie in a cineplex where maximum audience came up with their family members. This is good for bengali movie at all. This is much needed and Dev took this duty with courage. It is a movie with a plain storyline, with emotional touches and dramatic sences, family and romantic comedy combo. The story is very simple. There is nothing to be improved with the screenplay. Apart from acting, Kharaj Mukherjee just awesome throughout the movie, you can never be boring with this film and the only reason is he. The role he played here was tremendously written. The equations of so many relations in our family are enlighten here with simple and complex formats. Rukmini, what can i say about her, i saw her in the movie Switzerland also, to me Rukmini is going to be a gem of tollywood for her acting in family movies. She is so much spontaneous with her role. But i think Dev, after Working 15 years in the industry, till now he can't act,. He can't deliver 100%, his expressions and over acting almost forget us what is and what are the actual characteristics of his role. The songs are really very nice, after a long time i heard something from Papon. Anyway this film deserves a better marks than 'Tonic' and It is a good film to watch, you can surely enjoy with your family. So don't be late, come hall with your family and do live this Bengali movies.

Again Dev proved himself with all time blockbuster film kishmish , its name consist of different thinking other than all.., mark my word how much hardwork with smart strategy team has put for it, now result in your hand this movie story is unique, song is just out of the box ,bgm and cinematography is just top notch, bestt acting till date by Khoraj Babu dev and all cast , dev please revive Bengali cenema again like satyajit ray, uttam and soumitra sir.
