This movie is a gem, pure gem. The performance of each and every character were beyond amazing. I could not tell if they were doing their part, it felt so real and so honest, so funny, so emotional, so dramatic. Kudos to Anirban, for creating this masterpiece. And of course, Late Badal Sircar for writing such an incredible play.
I recently watched many popular movies in different languages like RRR, Brahmastra, Avatar way of water. I don't like to compare movies, but those movies were too lengthy, were not very engaging. I am surprised how much box office record they did.
The sad part is that a brilliant film like Ballabhpurer Roopkotha did not get its due. If we, bengalis don't promote our talents in bigger forums then who else would.
Go to theaters or get Hoichoi subscription and WATCH Ballabhpurer Roopkotha.

Thanks Anirban Bhattacharya, for taking us back to the Golden years of 60's & 70's Bengali Wholesome comedies. Adapted from a play of Badal Sarkar, this movie boasts of fantastic performances with impeccable comic timing, especially Satyam Bhattacharya and Shyamal Chakraborty as Bhupati & Monohar. The dialogues are well written and the laughs are less reliant on slapstick and more on irony and sarcasm. The most special part of this film is the Cinematography by Soumik Haldar, the shot selection, lighting and color grading, everything was world class. Music also contributes a lot to set up the mood. The retro vibe of the film fills us with nostalgia. A great Family entertainer.
I am feeling very proud that i am Bengali. The movie was very Heart touching. Lots of emotions and Best Comedy movie. I do respect Anirban, how he present entire thing and his effort.
The entire team of this film has been done such a finest job to build this movie. Sending love for all team members. Cast was superb, Acting was great. Everything is mind blowing. Every one should watch this movie like with your friend or family.

Another top notch quality work by Anirban and team after Mandaar. Screenplay, cinematography, sound design, acting was really emersive. The way they portraied the landscapes of Bengal, I'v only heard those in my grandpa's stories and not many films have actually shown that in recent times.
Badal Sarkar's story needs no further praise. The way they presented it on the big screen was brilliant as the story was revolving in a single courtroom but it never felt monotonous.
Every scene is visually very asthetic and makers made sure that you will never get the same experience in a small screen. Its one of those films which youll miss, not watching in the cinema hall.
The songs in this movie are really purposefull and well written. They do get stuck in your mind for days and you'll keep humming "Shajo sajao" or "Charsho bochor periye ajo dariye ache" unknowingly.
The actors did a really good job. Everyone really pulled of their charecters well.
The comedy sometimes missed the mark but 90% of it hit the mark really well.
Overall its a complete film and a must watch if you want a light hearted comedy-horror experience.

This film is about a man Raja bhallav who's desperately wanting to sell his ancestors Rajbari but is unable to do so because of its poor condition and the existence of a ghost with a past. Fun begins when a genuine buyer turns up and Bhallav needs to act well in order to sell the house.
It's not a howlarious film but the fun and comedy are light and so naturally pulled off that it instantly brings a grin or smile on your face. There's no shouting screaming like comedy , just pure conversations and sometimes hilarious confusions especially when Chanda keeps questioning Bhallav and his friend Sanjib .
If you are looking for a nice light hearted comedy , this is one film for you.
