Raktabeej

Raktabeej is larger than life! Raktabeej is real! It is not just a movie but an encounter with the reality, where you get to re-live a shocking incident, that shook Bengal during the pujas, a few years back. Victor Banerjee's portrayal of Our late President Honourable Sri Pranab Mukherjee is utterly convincing. The terror is real! On the other hand, the joy of homecoming is real, too. The joy of meeting your sibling after a long time is real and the emotion of their bond touches you! And it is here that the directors have delivered the masterstroke! They have successfully retained the emotional aspects of their film, even while delivering an edge-of-the-seat thriller! Kudos! Raktabeej is a must-watch!!

Raktabeej is not just a film! Raktabeej is an experience, where cinema meets reality. And this merging is seamless! It is really amazing how the directors have blended the flavours of Durga Puja with that of suspense. The details of puja days, the rituals, the rural flavour s and flamboyance on one side and ruthless remains of a blast, the trauma, the loss on the other side. And all seem real. It is indeed a surprise package from Directors Nandita Roy and Shiboprasad Mukherjee. The directors who have always made films based on emotions and family ties, have come up with a film that blends the genres of thriller and emotions so effortlessly! Kudos to the directors.

Nandita and Shivprasad created the first cinema out of their family line. Can't be called a complete success. The script didn't have that strength. But they are completely successful in the message they tried to convey to the society.

Although the movie has no pace in the beginning, the pace of the movie increases with time.

But what is most commendable is that they have got good performances from unknown actors/actresses. Every song in the film is very good. Ankush's dance is very good. Performances of anonymous actors have attracted more attention than famous actors. When Ambrish was given so little space, some other new actor could have been given a chance.

Raktabeej is a movie based on true incident. This is not just a movie which you watch and forget! This movie is not like any other film but something that brings out a mixture of all emotions. You start living with the characters. The way they have blended their genre of showcasing emotions with the touch of thriller is absolutely outstanding. They very well understood the term Audience's pulse when it came to taking up this risk of creating something outside their genre. This movie is really something that brought about the best climax. I must say that after Muktodhara and Gotro, it is one of their best creations ever.
