An exceptionally well written Film, it's an appealing movie which touches the slice of life..an excellent script with brilliant execution... A clear narrative 'to be or not to be" & 'to forget or to be forgotten', live everyday as everyday has its importance and live your life to the fullest.
A thought provoking film with difference.
The term Insufferable Escapist..instead of finding solace in other's art, create your own art and inspire.
Intense acting of everyone is simply touches your heart.
Hats off to Mrs. Churni Ganguly well executed well edited by Subhajit Singha, exceptional work of Camera by Gopi Bhagat and outstanding performance by Saswata Rima and Ritwik..very well acted.
This Film demands a must watch.

Within these 365 days, the date of our death is hidden. Birthday means joy, celebration, a memorable day but one after another birthday is coming and we are getting older and older. This means that we are gradually moving towards our death .
Wherever we are, we can easily communicate through social media such as Facebook . We can protest , raise our voice and share our opinions on such social platforms .
This movie is not the same clíche family drama film , rather , it's even more serious and complicated . This film shows several values of life ,inspires us to live every moment of life and talks about death .
What a beautiful acting Ritwik Chakraborty has done despite playing a side role . Watched his performances in Shabdo , Bakita Byaktigoto ( Rest Is Personal ) , Asha Jaoar Majhe ( Labour of Love ), Vinci Da and now in Tarikh , I have to agree he is a great actor ! We are proud to have an actor like him . Saswata Chatterjee , Raima Sen and other supporting casts were good in their respective characters .
The soundtrack and cinematography of the film were outstanding !

Anirban (Saswata Chatterjee) is a simple man, a professor of English literature at a Kolkata college, happily married to Ira (Raima Sen) and has an adorable daughter Niharika. Anirban is a communist at heart and lends his ideals to his students who Al.ost worship him. Everything looks fine on the surface, but there's tension simmering underneath - there's Rudra (Ritwick Chakraborty), Anirban's childhood best friend who has a soft corner for Ira and she knows it too well, making Anirban somewhat jittery and jealous. Ira makes no bones about her admiration for Rudra too, not out of the reciprocation of love, but as a friend and support. The triangle is the root cause for the drift and breakdown of communication among them.
Anirban has a secret friend too, but in London, by the name Georgina Abbott, who is apparent to Ira only on Facebook by a profile picture and she feels threatened by her presence in her husband's life. She knows that they meet when he travels to the UK once a year, but falls short of accusing him of infidelity. On one such visit to the Oxford University to deliver a few lectures, Anirban dies in his sleep - shortly after Ira has wished him on his birthday, and the news is relayed to Ira by Georgina. Tarikh then charts the reactions of Ira, Rudra, Niharika, the rest of the family and Anirban's students and friends after his death. Ira's discovery of Georgina by mere chance is meant to be an eye opener to her and to project how conscious, honest and unique her husband was, but it doesn't inspire.
Churni Ganguly is at the helm of this movie, but I failed to gather her real objective. Whether it was about portraying the positive aspects of social media (Facebook in particular), or was it about a triangular love story or was the the film meant to showcase a unique personality steeped in simplicity and philosophy about life and death, remains open to interpretation. I ended up rather confused about the several mixed messages and preachings in the form of an art house film, instead of being impressed. The format of the film appeared to be a distraction, constantly moving forward and back with dates and incidents instead of underlining the title. The Performances of Saswata, Raima and Ritwick are praiseworthy though.
