Bhaimon Da

Bhaimon Da is not just a film-it's a tribute, a heartfelt journey, and a cinematic salute to one of the most beloved icons of Assamese cinema. This biopic is a masterclass in storytelling, emotion, and legacy-building. From the very first frame, Bhaimon Da immerses you in the vibrant world of Assamese cinema, seen through the eyes of a visionary who dared to dream big. The film beautifully traces Munin Baruah's humble beginnings, his deep love for storytelling, and his relentless efforts to uplift the Assamese film industry-even during its most difficult times.

The performance of the lead actor portraying Munin Baruah is deeply moving and sincere. He captures not only the mannerisms and expressions of Bhaimon da, but also the emotional weight of his journey-the struggles, the sacrifices, and the soaring successes. Supporting performances are equally powerful, with characters representing real-life legends from the industry, creating a nostalgic and emotional resonance throughout.

The film's direction is outstanding. The narrative flows effortlessly between different phases of Munin Baruah's life, capturing both his personal and professional worlds with authenticity and warmth. The screenplay is filled with touching moments that will make audiences laugh, cry, and applaud-often all at once.

Visually, Bhaimon Da is rich and nostalgic. The cinematography pays homage to classic Assamese films while maintaining a modern sensibility. The music, infused with Assamese soul, enhances the emotional depth of the story and lingers long after the credits roll.

What makes Bhaimon Da truly special is its heart. It is evident that this film was made with immense love and respect for Munin Baruah. It honours not just the man, but an entire era of Assamese cinema that he helped shape. It reminds us why cinema matters and how one person's passion can inspire generations.

For anyone who has ever loved Assamese films, or simply believes in the power of dreams and dedication, Bhaimon Da is a must-watch. It is more than a film-it is a celebration of a legend, and a reminder that true artists never fade, they live on through the stories they leave behind.

Bhaimon Da is a cinematic gem and a fitting tribute to the irreplaceable Munin Baruah. Don't miss this beautiful homage to the man who gave Assamese cinema its golden moments.

Was watching again yesterday. It's really incredible to see that even on the third week, there was not even a single seat empty in the theatre. Director has done an incredible job in this movie. The characterization, screenplay, music and every other aspects of the movie is incredibly beautiful. Assamese cinema is back on the track with this Movie hopefully. From the second day of release, every show of the film is houseful and this is the third week.

It's a cinematic marvel in terms of picturization, screenplay, characterization, music, acting, etc. Being the first biopic in Assamese language, it has really set the bar real high.

I recently watched the biopic "Bhaimon Daa", and I must say I had mixed feelings about the film. In this review, I will begin by highlighting the aspects I found impressive before moving on to the areas where I believe the film could have been better.

To begin with the positives, the character selection was fantastic, with the exception of Zubeen Garg, whose portrayal didn't quite resonate with me. On the other hand, Gunakar Deva Goswami, Bondip Sarmah, and the actor who played Riju (the son of Bhaimon Daa) delivered truly commendable performances. The cinematography was also a strong point-visually captivating and aesthetically pleasing.

However, the film had its shortcomings. Firstly, I found issues with the background music, especially in the first half. At several moments, I felt distracted by the music, which was more melodic than evocative. It failed to enhance the emotional depth or mood of those scenes, and frankly, it didn't help me connect with the time period the film was trying to portray. In contrast, the second half had a more theatrical and synchronised score that matched the visuals more effectively.

Secondly, I noticed inconsistencies in the costume design. For instance, the style of the "churidar" worn by Bhaimon Daa's sister at the beginning of the film did not seem appropriate for the era being depicted.

Thirdly, I found the editing somewhat immature. The film could have benefited greatly from a more refined and professional editing approach. Additionally, the selection of Assamese fonts used in the cast credits lacked polish. The duration of the supers (text information shown at the bottom) was so brief that it was almost impossible to read them in time.

Another area that could have been improved was the colour grading, which I found to be poor and inconsistent throughout the film. This inconsistency disrupted the visual harmony of the movie.

Furthermore, the dialogue delivery of some characters felt unnatural and carried a theatrical tone that didn't fit well with the scenes. This became especially evident when compared to the performance of Ashish Vidyarthi, whose dialogue delivery was natural and impactful. This is a critical aspect where the directors of Assamese films need to focus more closely, ensuring that delivery remains authentic and grounded.

Finally, I felt that the script lacked cohesion. It appeared fragmented at times and could have been smoother and more intact in terms of flow and structure.

These are my personal observations, and I fully acknowledge that others may have different perspectives. I appreciate and welcome any opposing views, as discussions around cinema always enrich the experience.

Thank you.

Bhaimon Da is the Journey of Munin Baruah The Renowned Assamese Filmmaker Whose Inspired The Assamese Film Industry, Munin Baruah Sir is The Reason Why Assamese Cinema is where it is now. The Film No wonder Makes his craft Look Mesmerizing, I would like to Give Honour to the casting Director. Brilliant casting of certain Characters. Everyone was filled with talent I won't be able to say a name of anyone who was average or gave no efforts to their Characters. Everyone was Amazing, The Film Somehow Managed To Capture The Assamese Period Very accurately And Beautifully. But these are The Only Things That were great the other aspects of the film Fall under Average Or Below Average Category. The screenplay Had the potential but it never reached it. The Writing was weak , People not familiar To Munin Baruah and Other Figures of The Assamese Film History Will Face some issue while Watching the movie, There are No "Proper" introduction of characters. It is very difficult for the viewers to Keep Up. Every 10 minutes a new character appears. See a Film Is A good film when filled with characters. But You have to know how to manage them, How to Give Each of them perfect Screentime. Bhaimon Da lacked this Thing Heavily and this is my biggest complaint, Bidurbhai is a great Example of This , Every character in Bidurbhai Had their Own Story , Scenes Perfectly Blend into the storyline, I am always impressed with Bidurbhai , I won't ignore the fact that Bhaimon Da is a Biopic Still I was Expecting More from The team , The Film lacked Many Cinematic Aspects, The Storyline at the end seemed Stretched , like " let's just somehow finish the film" I always Know what a pain is to Write a screenplay but It is a thing That lacked and as a Reviewer I Thought I should mention it. The Film is carried by The Assamese people's Sentiments and The Elderly's Never ending Respect for Munin Baruah Sir. Zubeen Garg has always been a larger than life figure and this movie tried to Make him More. I am a big fan of Zubeen Garg but His character was a Great Audience Magnet. For me at some point it looked like the storyline was going through Zubeen Not bhaimon Da , It went to the track again Although. They gave Zubeen Garg scenes to show his aura I remember a guy Mentioning to Munin Baruah Sir about the Crowd for Zubeen Garg in a dramatic way and with a Great Background Score , And Next scene Zubeen Garg takes an entry labelled Hero. These scenes were entirely for Zubeen Garg Da. The Film is absolutely Not Bad but Absolutely Not great , It comes in between but it is absolutely a one time watch or two , Your choice , The film is Fun and I have no hate for any crew member of this film or Munin Baruah Sir or Zubeen Garg , I Just Pointed out the Things. Thank you for reading My Long Review.

How good Bhaimon Da is ? You can assess and imagine when I say that it's the first Assamese movie of my life which truly made me emotional. The last scene complemented by the last song of the movie presented how truly rich and beautiful Assamese culture is. Loved Bhaimon Da so much.

The movie is a wonderful eye opener to the pain, struggles and immense commitment of every artist who has done his or her part despite so many hurdles.

Thanks to late Bhaimon Sir, Zubeen Da , Jatin Sir, Ravi Sir, every artist and team members who worked so hard and despite facing so many problems, contributed to our beloved Assamese culture.

Thank you so much to the entire 'Bhaimon Da' movie team for the most amazing Assamese film.

God bless 🙏
