Shontaan

The narrative may have its fair share of shortcomings, particularly in the writing that contributed to a subdued second half (with the sole exception of the ending), it still managed to evoke an wide spectrum of emotions that such stories are meant to inspire.

As someone who values emotional connections with on-screen characters, I found the experience to be cathartic. Even though I do not typically gravitate towards family dramas, this one struck a chord that set it apart from others.

Not to mention, performances by both Anashua Mam and Mithun Daa were profoundly moving; their portrayals felt sincere and, most importantly genuine in intent.

Lastly I just wanna say, take care of your Mom & Dad they have sacrificed much for your well being all they seek in return is your love and affection.

They won't ask for anything more, once they are gone, nothing will ever be the same. Cherish every moment while you can.

Shontaan is a must watch!!

This is undoubtedly one of MithunDa's best performances. There are many emotional moments throughout the movie, but specifically the last 15 minutes are bound to make you cry. I saw people still weeping while coming out of the theatre.

10 star is also less for this movie. Literals made every single person cry in the theatre at the end. Oshadharon movie. After baghban, we finally have a movie based on injustice against old parents that narreted so well.

This is one of Mithun Chakraborty's best performances wouldn't be an understatement. As others mentioned, the cast is tailor-made. There are absolutely flaws in cinematography, editing, background score but the actors made it their own. Storyline is just as symmetry to this genre, but Mithun Chakraborty and in some scenes Ritwik have outperformed.

The other castes supported well to brew this old story to a finer liquor - absolutely worth watching.

Raj Chakraborty as a director is blooming with time and will wish to watch some more. This should be commercially acclaimed to the TGs if properly marketed.

But actor Mithun Chakraborty has owned this one - he won the show and the audience again with his charm, apt emotions and subtle gentleness.

Shontaan is a Bengali film directed by well known Bengali Director Raj Chakraborty. Film deals with the problem of aged parents who are completely neglected by their son. Mithun Chakraborty and Anasuya Majumder potrait the roles of parents and Ritwik Chakraborty potrait the character son. The story revolves on the basis of a Court room drama when Mithun Chakraborty is forced to place a case against his son who is completely reluctant to help his lonely parents even inspite of having a white collar job , he refused to give money for operation of her mother. This son with his wife live a sophisticated life but not extends a minimum support to his own parents. Subhashree Ganguly as a lawyer gives her support to Mithun Chakraborty to fight for justice against his son. Raj Chakraborty has done a fantastic job to handle both family drama and court room drama with essence. He is definitely one of the finest Director of modern Bengali Cinema. Last 20 minutes of the film makes you cry and you leave the hall with a strong social message. The main strong point of the film is performance. Ritwik Chakraborty as son, Anasuya Majumder as mother and Subhashree Ganguly as lawyer give their career best performance. Ritwik is so natural as a bad son, as a spectator you will hate him. Mithun at mid seventies makes wonder, poor man Amitabh Bachhan, hero of front bencher, now melts the heart of urban centric audiences who were slightly indifferent about him even during his Disco era. After Projapati, Kabuliwala now Shontaan it is 3 rd hits in three consecutive year in completely different genres which are differed from typical Mithun Genera. Three time National award winner actor now justifies his talent which is seriously underrated in his so called masala bollywood films. Sohini Sengupta and Kharaj Mukherjee justify themselves in their short roles. Music is as per the message of the film. Lastly it is a must watch film for every family.

Very good film. Mithun Chakraborty, rithik Chakravarti combination is perfect. We all will watch this film by prospect of review and trailer. This type of social films sinking out the Bengali film industry bahar on and special story, screening, social work. We are the West Bengal's common people and our family members are the best person for this type of film liker. We wish this type of film much and more with the hand of best actors like Mithun Chakraborty, Parambrata chattopadhyay, Jeet madnani, rudranil Sengupta, khoraj Mukherjee, Saswata Chatterjee, Vishwanath Basu , Poran Bandopadhyay Rajatava dutta. Etc great actor...
