I usually never review a film. This is my first review. Bioscopewala is a beautiful film, its a perfect adaptation of Rabindranath Tagore's kabuliwala.
Bioscopewala is the story of Rehmat Khan (Danny Denzongpa), a man uprooted from his homeland. He depends upon his bioscope for livelihood and emotional sustenance. After fleeing from his country, he ends up in Calcutta, where he befriends 5 year old minnie who is of the same age as his own daughter.
Danny Denzongapa is the star of the movie. All the actors bring life to their characters. This movie inhabits the various shades of affection and complexities of human relationship. Watched such a good movie after a long time.
One of the Most emotional films i have ever seen.....please watch it at least once.....i am sure you will experience the real meaning of humanity......All star cast is just wonderful.....it left a great impression .....i feel so motivated after seen this....
What a humanity shown......hats off to every crew involved in this.........
Beautiful story, direction and acting! I wish people would see this atleast once.
The movie is a contemporary adaptation of the much loved classic short story "Kabuliwala" by Rabindranath Tagore.It deals with a spectrum of incidents and emotion without overdoing it and that's the best part about this film.All the actors portray poignant and powerful performances.Honestly, I did'nt expect it to be this good before actually watching the movie.It sure packs a surprise for everyone.The cinematography is exemplary , production design is fabulous ( I could see lot of effort has gone into it ) and direction is superlative . Overall it's the kind of cinema I have not seen in a long time.Kudos to everyone involved in this project.
