Autograph

Had a lots of expectations from this one as the movie was a tribute to the Master's All Time Classic movie Nayak but the movie isn't that much engaging. Plot wasn't so good it didn't feel bore but the movie fails to connect the audience with it. Songs were damn good and the lyrics had deeper meaning. Anupam Roy's composition was very good. Overall a one time watch but instead go for Satyajit Ray's 'Nayak'.

Hollow dialogues. Terrible acting. No emotions. Stupid plot.The only good thing is the music. A film that pretends to be intellectual but isn't in any way whatsoever. Just referring to classics doesn't make a film classic.

First watch NAYAK (1966) then you'll understand why I wrote POOR.

This is the example that srijit Mukherjee can beat almost everyone when it comes to copy another movie. Basically this movie is frame to frame copy of Ray's all-time classic Nayak. As the movie is actual copy of the original one, the script and story is very very good. Also nice performance from the lead prosenjit chatterjee.

This film, though stemming from a novel idea, was not well-executed. The screen-play lacked conviction and the direction much needed focus. In this film in an attempt to pay tribute to one of the greatest filmmakers/auteurs of all times in the world (Satyajit Ray), Mr. Mukherjee somehow lost track of what (and how much) gravity creating such a tribute demanded. Autograph is immensely rich in its approach to film theory with its subtle references to iconic European directors and films. Sadly though, it ended up being an incomplete and incoherent melange of some unexpected and mostly predictable plot twists. The myriad of sequences remain(ed) fettered in underdeveloped video vignettes devoid of artistic momentousness. This film belied Mukherjee's capabilities as a potential avant-garde Indian filmmaker!
