Amitabh Raza: He is one of the finest maker in Bangladesh. Previously he made so many excellent TV dramas and commercials, so when I heard that he's coming into the big screen and making his debut film, I was so thrilled and excited. Besides that, Rashed Zaman, the cinematographer (whom I call Bangladesh's Emmanuel Lubezki) was the other captivating element of this film which entices me even more. Today, I went to see the film which was the very first day of it's release and came back home with wide wonderment and joy.
The lead actor, Chanchal Chowdhury is one of the brightest actor in this generation. Before, he was so good in Monpura (2009) and Television (2013). And now in Aynabaji he simply enchanted and stole the whole show single handedly. I can guarantee, he will win The National Award for sure. The story line was so unique and had so much depth, which allows Chanchal to make it more blazed. Chanchal is a sheer virtuoso of acting and this is obviously his best work so far.
Not only Chanchal, the others actors, actress also put up a good show. Lutfur Rahman George, Partho Barua acted very well. Masuma Rahman Nabila was surprisingly good. There were some teeny tiny irrationality with the story line, but they are absolutely negligible, because if you want to compare with Bangladeshi Standard, Aynabaji was exceptionally good. In camera work, in sound editing and mixing, in casting ensemble, in costume, the whole film so skillfully mastered. The songs are pretty good, the script has so many punches and humors.
Hats off to the whole team. This movie is highly recommended for all, to the general viewer and also for the other people who kind of love to see different tracks of movies.

The movie is one piece of excellent film making in Bangladesh film industry till date. The hard work of the Director totally reflected including the entire teams work. Cinematography of the movie shows the development of the creative minds and technology use.
The actors played their very well. Chanchal Chowdhury did an outstanding performance. He proved his excellence. He is an terrific actor which know from other films. But he crossed his own excellence here.
The story line of the movie is very exceptional. Well executed and I couldn't think of any other end it could have been. Every bit of the movie had it's purpose. Well written story and the dialogues too. Music director also did very good. All the songs and background music were perfectly plotted. Bangla music essence was there.
Overall, this movie is a very good watch! Every artist behind the movie and on screen did amazing which the movie reflects. Hats off to the team work!

One of the good movies of recent times. I like the uniqueness of the plot. Probably this is the first Bangladeshi movie that tries drama and suspense genre with pure Bangladeshi urban flavor. It's mesmerizing to see familiar locations like Paribag, Puran Dhaka, Sadar Ghat etc with subliminal frames. Chanchal Chowdhury again showed why he was awarded National Film Awards back in 2009.
Though the film has an unique plot line but I feel somewhere it lacks a bit depth as a full length feature film (probably it's the expectation from such a talented bunch of creative peoples). The second thing is the slow momentum and pace of events, sometimes you need to wait a bit more to see next events to happen. And the last thing is over using of drone and new/unknown frames to present the sequences. No doubt it is a sex for eyes to see such beautiful cinematography but this also distracts you and make you to give more attention on cinematography and frames (technical aspects) than the story itself.
However, the hype creating and overwhelming response of the crowds inspire us that there is still a big market for Bangladeshi movies, our movies.

A great combination of story and direction nice cinematography. Promising acting overall a great work. Amitab reza a new director from Bangladesh who just showed that it possible to do a better work if you give such effort. A great combination of thriller, romance and comedy. Its kind of a psychological thriller. Chanchal Ahmed a great actor showed his talent. I would suggest every movie lovers to watch this movie in the theater. Its a pre-release review so a details review will come soon after the release. This is the directors first big screen direction. I always loved his work. He did some excellent drama in Bangladeshi TV drama.

May be some people could say that it is overrated or something like that but actually this movie is a piece.A challenging role played by Chanchal Chowdhury make the movie special.Every small role was given importance by Director. Amitabh Reza Chowdhury was the real kick ass.His shooting with a drawn was a great idea.Location,photography,cinematography,cas ting,costume,set designing,editing ; everything was just awesome.The story was unique and different. The dialogue was the best of Bangladeshi Cinema.Some dialogue contains a deep meaning.It is worth to watch.And obviously in Cinema Hall.

- TriviaIt is very interesting to see that Aynabaji was shot at Keraniganj Central Jail when this jail was not inaugurated so far. Besides, this movie was shot in Kashimpur Jail and shooting in real jail is a such a rare experience for BangladeshI movie.
- GoofsWhen Ayna completed the terms for the gamer boy in jail, we could see him returned to his home with a full head of hair. But due to the character he took, he needed to shave his head before. Just before the scene, we could see him in the court with an almost bare head.
