Tekka

Much more was expected out of a Srijit Mukherjee but unfortunately that was not to be and was very disappointed. Boring, slow, bland and melodramatic storyline. We expect more out of Srijit Mukherjee especially in the thriller genre. Hope we would get some great thrillers from him in future.

Acting : 5 Story and screenplay : 2 Music : 7 Action : 2

The subplots were equally poor and did not see any hope from them. We may take a leaf of movies made in other languages to get some ideas and replicate in our own way probably as they keep us guessing till the end and don't drag it in between. Please avoid if possible.

Well well well,I am shocked how bangla movie industry has improved in their production quality, cinematography and all. I started the movie movie with zero expectations but I am impressed at the end.well there was nothing new in the story and we have already watched movies on the same concept but still after interval you will somehow like the movie.i won't say it's a must watch but your can watch it once.byt the surprising thing for me was that I was watching a regional bangla movie but its standard was too good.

Movie was ok ok but the way they have picturised it for that only it deserves atleast 6star.

Srijit Mukherjee's Tekka marks a significant departure from his previous, acclaimed works. The film, featuring Dev, Rukmini, and Swastika, centers around a kidnapping incident that unfolds in a tense conference room setting. While the premise holds potential, the execution falls short in almost every aspect.

Swastika's performance is the lone bright spot, delivering a compelling and nuanced portrayal of the distraught mother. However, Dev's character, despite his efforts, lacks the depth and intensity required to make the audience empathize with the kidnapper. Rukmini's performance is particularly underwhelming, as her character seems lost and inconsistent.

The film's direction is amateurish, a far cry from the finesse displayed in Mukherjee's earlier works like Baishe Shrabon and Chotuskone. The dialogue delivery is wooden, and the characters lack the maturity and complexity expected given the high-stakes situation. The cinematography is commendable, but the music fails to add any emotional depth.

Inspired by Western films and web series, Tekka struggles to find its own identity. The characters feel one-dimensional, and the plot lacks the necessary tension and twists to keep the audience engaged. While the concept had promise, the execution is flawed, resulting in a disappointing film.

Rating: 3/10.

I can definitely say that Srijit Mukherji has cooked in Tekka and he probably has extracted the career best performance from Dev. Best thing was hearing Dev cussing, it was paisa wasool for that reason alone. Rukmini and Swastika were great as well. The film jumps straight into the action and maintains the pace & tempo keeping us on the edge. And that twist, I seriously wasn't expecting it dayumn. The climax was brilliant and concludes the film perfectly. There were a few massy elements ft Dev as well which was cool. And the way it tackles several social, religious and political issues without being preachy was commendable. In fact the message of communal harmony was very impactful. The film has everything to become a blockbuster this Durga Puja.

This film depicts a cop and kidnapper chasing tale with some amazing twists.

The co-screenplay, dialogues and direction by #SrijitMukherji is brilliant. He is a bit leniant to his craft this time and his narrative style is simple and linear mostly.

The story & co-screenplay by #BhaskarChattopadhyay is engaging.

#ModhuraPalit being the cinematographer steals the show.

#PronoyDasgupta's editing is crispest to the core.

Music Director #RanajoyBhattacharjee has presented some situational chords, but none of them are worth-humming.

Costume Designer #JayantiSen & assistant costume stylist #SampurnaBasu has done a fab job, but the continuity jerk of the hairstyle of Swastika in the film with that in the poster is a concern, however it may be a director's choice. But the look in the poster seems more convincing.

As per the performances are concerned, #Dev as Iqlakh Alam (Jack) is fairly good. He has done the best as much as he could do, but the character of a janitor demands a lot of body-language which was lacking at times. #RukminiMaitra as ACP Maya Khastogir steals the show, all thanks to her groomer #SudiptaChakraborty. #SwastikaMukherjee as Ira Sengupta was good but not convincing enough in the story, as her actions were predictable enough. #ParanBandopadhyay as MLA and industrialist Anubrata Adhikari was as usual superb in his extended cameo. Baby #Aameya as Avantika was adorable. #SreejaDutta as Brishti was fairly good on-screen, #LokenathDey as Inspector Kallol Guha, #KamaleswarMukherjee as DCP Rajat Majumdar and #SujanNeelMukherjee as News Anchor/Journalist were good in their parts, #AryanBhowmik as Tintin was very spontaneous, #AnirbanBhattacharyya as the maintenance manager was good in his part. The film has some guest appearances, namely #TotaRoyChowdhury as Maya's husband Rajiv Sanyal, #KaushikSen as Altaf Alam, #SrijitMukherji as Mr. Arjun Puri and #SudeshnaRoy as Mrs. Mitali Sharma has made their presence amply felt.

Production by #DevEntertainmentVentures of #GurupadaAdhikari & Dev along with distributor #PVRInoxPictures has made an average film.

Definitely Not a Must Watch. 👍🏻
