Every great thing has to come to an end at some point. '22 Se Srabon' should have remained a standalone film. There was no need for the sequel, 'Dwitiyo Purush,' or the prequel, 'Dawshom Avatar.' It seems that 'Dawshom Avatar' was primarily created for profit by capitalizing on nostalgia. Unfortunately, the film fell short in many aspects, except for the songs and acting. The use of slang in the movie felt forced, and the action scenes were quite illogical. The script appeared underdeveloped, and the editing was subpar. This resulted in the film being quite tedious to watch. 'Dawshom Avatar' doesn't quite fit into the thriller or drama genre; it feels more like a money-making endeavor. It might be a good time for Srijit Mukherjee to take a break and return with a stronger, more thought-out script. If you find yourself with no other movie options during this festive season, you might be better off watching this movie in the theater to catch up on some rest. I wouldn't recommend this movie, even for an OTT platform.
Dasham Avatar movie is not as good as Baishe Shravan and dwitiyo purush movie (Baishe Shravan movie itself is a history of Bengali thriller cinema ) but it is much better than other Bengali suspense thriller movie. Story writing is very weak. Can Guess Villain Jesus Sengupta character needed better build up Prosenjit Chatterjee's Anirban BhattacharyaSlow motion effect in the entry scene which is very common in South movies would have been good if not but Prasenjit Chatterjee and Anirban Bhattacharya acting 100 100 Jaya Ahsan's acting was good but needed to be better this movie is ground and BGM is not good at all the good points of this movie are very catchy dialogueJesus Sengupta Anirban Chatterjee's acting and songs have a new meaning and This movie has a plot twist which is quite good.
Director #SrijitMukherji's latest product from his Cop Universe and from the house of #SVF, jointly delivered a much-hyped but a thoroughly disappointing melodramatic daily-soap kinda experience. The first half was no-doubt fast-paced and power-packed, but on the contrary, the second half lacked its pace and the screenplay went totally haywire. Music is equally awful, and so is the editing. The second poorest release after Bagha Jatin. The camera work is fairly moderate. But over-usage of slo-mo and Drone shots seems overrated. The plot is predictable and the screenplay is neither edge-of-the-seat, nor gripping. Both #ProsenjitChatterjee & #JisshuSengupta delivered good performances, #AnirbanBhattacharya is fair too, while #JayaAhsan tried her best, but all her efforts to cope up with the predictable plot rendered futile. However, its a one-time watch movie. Moral of the story, over-usage of cuss words and intimate scenes along with titillating the audience with previous franchises' hints couldn't save the drowning ship, when the premise is itself weak.
Let us be honest, "Baishe Srabon" was an iconic film. It was nothing short of a landmark in Bengali cinema that changed the industry's ideology forever.
It was too big of a task to replicate the success and the impact (both literally and figuratively), let alone surpass, even for the writer-director himself. I don't think anybody counted on that, although admittedly, we kept our fingers crossed and hoped for the best, including me, a fan of 2011's original.
Everything was going well for the first two acts. I was delighting in the friendly banters between the Probir-Poddar pair and their sparkling chemistry. I was also intrigued by the investigative parts of the murders that were taking place in succession. I was hooked on the ride.
Then, the third act happened, and everything went awry; it seemed like Srijit Mukherji was in a hurry and rushed up to the conclusion, resulting in a climax which raised more queries than gave us clear-cut answers.
The story needed, or rather demanded, a suitable finale, which Mr Mukherji failed to provide, therefore leaving a sore taste that may linger for days to come!

A well-crafted crime thriller movie keeps the audience engaged with a compelling narrative. This movie is one of them. Ten avatars of lord Vishnu represents Matsya; Kurma; Varaha; Narasimha; Vamana; Parashurama; Rama; Krishna; Buddha; and Kalki. And deaths become tragedy when Biswaroop Bardhan aka Jishu Sengupta thinks of himself as Kalki. According to ten avatars he starts killing people with perfection and leaving sandalwood bracelet as an evidence becomes a habit. Probir Roy Chowdhury aka Prosenjit Chatterjee is a serial killer expert, as well as ill tempered and foul mouthed. In a bar Probir Roy Chowdhury meets Inspector Poddar aka Anirban Bhattacharya who energetic and grumpy at the same time and conversation starts with impoliteness. Jaw-dropping moment happens when Head of Police Department assigns two of them for find out the serial killer of this massacre. This movie is undoubtedly much more adventurous and entertaining, while watching Dawsham Avotaar definitely you won't get bored for a second. You can feel the beauty of love around the corner when Inspector Poddar falls in love with Moitreyee Ghatak aka Jaya Ashan. And the plot twist at end becomes heart-wrenching as you have already become one of them into the plot. The wait for the next part becomes a communal experience, with fans discussing theories and predictions, contributing to the overall excitement. As we become emotionally invested in the characters and their journeys, the desire to uncover the next chapter intensifies. Brace yourselves for another great part 2 as a gift from Srijit Mukherji.
