Bagha Jatin

Vande Maataram. Finally the film industry has attempted to address the life of the legendary freedom fighter Bagha Jatin (Jatindranath Mukherjee). None of this would have been possible without the sincere efforts of Dev. I am truly impressed by the dedication and effort that he has put in to reward the audience with this historic film. It is indeed tragic that neither the state governments of the past nor any other film-maker has ever bothered to do justice to the lives of these tigers of the freedom struggle who gave their lives improvising and fighting to win us freedom from the yoke of colonial oppressors.

The film is brilliant in tackling the the challenge of touching upon the lives of a great many freedom fighters while not stealing the thunder of the titular character. A true work of art in which the sincerity of the producers and the directors in adeptly distributing and planning the screentime and sequences is clearly evident. Highly impressed. The cast too is highly talented. Special mention must be made of Rohan Bhattacharya, Sreeja Dutta and certainly, the Pied piper himself, the man with a dream , our very own Dev Sir. Thank you for standing against all odds and making this dream of every Indian a reality. Hey Beer , Hey Bagha Jatin, Jatindranath Mukherjee, Bangalir praanpurush, Loho pronaam.

Bagha Jatin is a perfect blend of mass and class. Dev delivers emotional depth and showcases his action skills, especially in battles against the British and a tiger. He brings that mass superstar charm and screen presence that we haven't seen from him in years. The film incorporates various massy elements where he truly shines. Dev brings Jatindranath Mukherjee to life, and this may be his best entry scene since 'Challenge.'

The music and background score are top-notch which creates a big impact. The rest of the cast complements Dev quite well. Arun Roy, once again, proves himself as the go-to director for historical biopics. The story covers ideology, politics, and a formidable villain. His vision and scale are reflected in every frame and action. Bagha Jatin is a cinematic gem in the Bengali film industry that truly shines on the big screen.

In today's day and age of family dramas and detective films in Bengal, movies with such vision deserve appreciation. Dev's maturity and commitment to the role, both as an actor and producer, are evident and remarkable.

It's really a well made movie, atleast better than ganpath, yaariya 2 . So, it will be a better option I guess . Dev really have done a good job . Director Arun Roy well researched and the music of Nilanjan sir is very good . Vfx and Cgi is poor but you can feel the story what the movie want to show . I was curious about the tiger fight scene but that scene had poor vfx actually it was not Dev's fault, it was director's fault . Dev's disguise looks was so amazing . Sometime for the flat screenplay movie become boring but the climax scene made me goosebumps . In the end when the song 'Asbo phire' played in theater I got emotional . It is a family friendly must watch movie.

Jatindranath Mukherjee aka Bagha Jatin deserves highest respect and movie also attempted same but as a movie it failed on many fronts. First of all it is over cliched on many fronts. Writer presented story at shallow level and it clearly appeared that he did not worked hard to research and dig deeper. Both writer and director look ameteurs. Movie was created just for the sake of creating it. It had nothing to hook your attention throughout. There were many interesting historical events but were presented in over simplimisitic and banal manner. Director should watch movies like Udham Singh to know where does he stand. In short, the story had the potential but inept writer and director failed to do justice with that.

"Bagha Jatin," directed by Arun Roy, comprises an ensemble cast. Dev plays the titular role, while debutant Sreeja Dutta plays the role of Indubala, and Sudipta Chakraborty plays the role of Binodbala . The film strikes a perfect balance between class and mass moments. The action sequences are well choreographed, and despite subpar VFX (considering the film's budget is only 5 crore), it's relatively negligible. The screenplay of the first half is very engaging, but the second half feels rushed. The music and background score by Nilayan Chatterjee are top-notch, and Gopi Bhagat's cinematography is an absolute delight for the eyes. The film introduces many lesser-known or completely unknown historical characters. If you're a history enthusiast, you'll remain engaged throughout the film. Returning to the acting department, Dev delivers his career-best performance without a doubt. Sudipta Chakraborty is an ace actor, with her subtle contributions enriching the film. Debutant Sreeja is excellent in her limited screen time. Other important characters are portrayed by numerous stage and debutant actors who gave their heart and soul to their roles. However, there are some factual errors in the film, and the narration could have been much better. The scene with the tiger falls flat, which could have been the film's highlight. The high points of the film were poorly executed. Overall, it's a brave attempt that deserves box office success. I recommend going to your nearest theater to watch it; you won't be disappointed.
