Saari Raat

When I started watching this film, I had all the prejudice that one has while watching any short film these days. Its gonna be either about suicide, or Schizophrenia or just a boring Conversation of a couple after a break up.

As the film progressed, I kept on getting more engrossed in the way, Parimal Alok, the director of the film was revealing the layers one by one. The acting and the characterization were bang on no doubt, but even then it is tough to hold the attention if the film has nothing but just one location.

The story does indeed provide you with a lot of scope but, the real trick that the makers pulled off has to be "immensely awesome acting" , n personally, I consider that a Director has no other job to do other than first getting the Acting right.

I had no idea that, someone could take a page from an old story in Hindi literature and carve a gem out of it in 10 minutes.

Hats off to Parimal & Parul...

Just today i had the chance to watch this short film in my college in which the director and actor Parimal Aloke visited along with Paru Gambhir and a couple of his team members to.They had visited our college to give us a special screening of the movie!And i have to say that the movie was something different,nothing which is normally seen in a short movie.The issues were touched upon very sensitively and managed to hold my attention for the entire movie! Both the actors have done a commendable job as they had the responsibility of keeping a strong screen presence and executing the story well! Hats off to Parimal Aloke for playing the chauvinistic Indian male with ease who doubts his wife no matter how much she tries to convince him , and also Paru Gambhir for playing the ever so doubted Indian bride! But yes i have to say i realized in the end of the movie that Parimal Aloke,the director was in fact the Groom (needless to say the fact that the mustache made the difference)and yes neither did i recognize Paru Gambhir (may be the make up i guess! ) Hats off to the director and i wish him the best of luck for the success of his movie! My Rating - 7/10 (Worth a watch)

After a long time watched a short movie which made an impact with just two characters,simple set and simple conversation between a husband and wife on their first night.This movie so beautifully puts forward the Irony of our Indian society in which women are treated like a body without any mind and soul and to what extent men can be chauvinistic. A commendable job done by Director Parimal Aloke who acted so naturally as a high headed Indian man and the last song in the movie sung by him is so touching. The actress plays the role of a coy bride to perfection showing the helplessness of women in this male dominated society. A BIG THUMBS UP to Parimal Aloke and his team for this movie.

Saari Raat ! the thought of watching a short movie with Parimal being a part of it, was making me excited, I had never been to a short movie screening, my wife was with me ....I didn't know what will be the pace and what is there in store for us in the movie....The movie started and kept on moving at a pretty good pace, it brought a lot of smiles and frequent laughter on our face... it was so simple yet immensely entertaining ....the flow in which dialogues moved, the ease with which both Parimal and Paru took the conversation ahead was worth applauding...The emotions were all there ... the curiosity in the mind of a groom on the first night about the bride was so well depicted... Loved it ... we enjoyed each and every scene, every word they said.. it looked so natural... just like we were peeping into a real life couple's bedroom window...Full marks to Parimal ... Good work buddy ... looking forward to see more such movies from you.... We had a good time watching it.. my best wishes for Parimal for his upcoming ventures ... God bless you ....Ritesh

Parimal and Paru did amazing job, well done for them!

Congratulations to everyone who worked on the movie set, too!

It's a good display of chauvinism and middle class, small town Indian mentality just like the description says.

The groom wanted to find out more about their respective pasts, the bride was reluctant at first but then she felt curious about her grooms 3 girlfriends.

I highly recommend it, enjoy in watching!
