The film is a work of art, with a grandiose setting befitting the story of a guy who is bigger than life. Not only for history lovers, but for anybody searching for a good philosophical benchmark as well.

The film is very reflective and has a great lot of relevance for our day. As a film enthusiast, I will award five stars. Excellent Film, Direction, and Acting. Everything in this film is excellent. Must-see for the younger generation.

The movie is in itself a marvellous film making feat, with a larger than life setup to depict the larger than life story of a man. A must watch , not only for history but also for getting a good philosophical benchmark which we all need.

Everything about it is great, and I have nothing bad to say about it. The filmmaking, photography, and costume design are all of the highest caliber. This film deserves every award it earns, and then some. Motivating and inspiring. The direction is elegant.

The film is incredibly insightful and has a lot of contemporary significance. As a moviegoer, I give it five stars. Fantastic film, direction, and acting. Everything about this film is fantastic. For the younger generation, this is a must-see.

Uttam Kumar still is the MAHANAYAK (THE HERO) of tollywood industry.

Neither gossip columns/pulp magazines/flop movies could tarnish Uttam-Supriya's image... nor this film would be ever successful to do so.

ACTING - Saswata Banerjee was brilliant... Rituparna Sengupta even as a cameo actor was fantastic... Biswanath & Srabanti also gave good performances... but most of the amateur actors were really disappointing.

STORYLINE/PLOT- A cheaply catered, one sided tale of a great persona without any nuances of life.

The film is not about Uttam Kumar's cinematic successes or failures... This film is not exactly a biopic... This film is all about Uttam Kumar's first love/wife Gauri devi and HIS infinite affairs... This film illustrates a family drama where Uttam Kumar is being seduced to the dark side by "others" (namely Supriya devi/Benu-di).

Behind all of Uttam Kumar's success & greatness there was Gauri devi (and obviously HIS tremendous discipline)....but behind Uttam Kumar's downfall, HE is never to be blamed... HE was never responsible for HIS choices.

Whether be it, marrying Supriya Devi (Never shown in the film. She just symbolies the downfall of HIS life) without divorcing Gauri Devi... or leading an extremely unhealthy & indisciplined life... or ruining reputations of many women.... HE is never (actually) responsible.

"Chhoti si mulakat" was HIS choice... HIS failure... but Supriya Devi/Benu-di is exclusively blamed for that too in this film.

SCREENPLAY - Poorly written dialogues and scenes...Even telifilms & OTT platform films now have more well researched contents with better cinematic experience.

Uttam Kumar may had a flawless persona on the silver screen... but he was a human being with loads of imperfections... Demonizing his second partner "Benu-di" (that partner is a woman thereby a witch , who can be casted away by some charmed amulets) maybe the easiest way to sell a film... by obscuring truths & nuances of life.

MUSIC - At times appropriate... at times it felt like mixing water with oil.

OVER-ALL EXPERIENCE - I had no intention to write a review for this below average film. My rating is more than enough, to make my opinion clear.

When I read through the reviews of around 3.2k imdb bots with same copy-pasted good review, posted on 23rd July...I just had to share my experience, which was an unpleasant one.

This film is a total waste of time and money... I wouldn't recommend anyone to watch the film even when it streams free on TV.

But then again... I wish that you go to the nearest theatre without your family (torture yourself but don't push your family into this) and share your real experience here....to fight bot ratings/reviews in imdb.

Despite this, the film's star-studded cast and a few memorable sequences save it from devolving into a trite, overdone biographical cliche.i really like this film.

The sequence of key events in Uttam Kumar's life overwhelms these touches in the second chapter. This is a film that should be seen over the course of a weekend. A excellent Bengali film for locals to see.

. I was blown away by the film's visuals and the age it depicted. What this film reminds you is that if you have faith in your decision, you can achieve any type of success. This is a very accurate portrayal of Uttam Kumar ji's character.

But thanks to an impressive cast and several memorable moments, the film avoids becoming yet another hackneyed, overblown biographical picture. But thanks to an impressive cast and several memorable moments, the film avoids becoming yet another hackneyed, overblown biographical picture.

I thought the picturization was great, and the time period that the movie depicted was spot on. This video will teach you that finding the appropriate recipe for success and maintaining confidence in the path you've choswould be difficult for me to point out anything that is lacking in it. Everything about this film is excellent, from the directionen are the two most important factors in achieving it. Excellently spotless and genuine portrayal of Uttam Kumar ji.

This film is based on the life of actor Uttam Kumar. His popularity was especially prevalent in West Bengal. The actor in the film did an excellent job portraying the role. Outstanding film featuring an ensemble cast.

The movie is shown in Bengali in this specific instance. Beginning with the opening scene and continuing through the first half of the movie, Atanu Bose creates a feature film that, in many ways, gives the sense that it is not a biography.

93. Overwhelmed with Uttam Kumar's biography, the film's second half loses sight of these little details. This is a weekend movie worth watching. Locals should witness this Bengali film.

In spite of this, the film's star-studded cast and a few sequences that stand out rescue it from becoming a worn-out biographical cliche, which is a kind that has been overdone in recent years.

In spite of this, the film's star-studded cast and a few outstanding scenes prevent it from degenerating into a typical biography, a genre that has been overused in recent films.

The movie is quite insightful, and there is a lot that it can teach us about how to live our lives now. As a person who enjoys going to the movies, I will give it five stars. Good film, amazing director, and excellent acting. The quality of this film is outstanding in every respect. The younger generations have a responsibility to stay vigilant.

In this, the film's star-studded cast and a few spectacular sequences save it from degenerating into a conventional biography. This is a genre that has been overdone in recThis artwork is the result of a great deal of thought, and even in this day and age, it retains a lot of its significance. As someone who enjoys going to the movies, I think it deserves a perfect five stars. Excellent film, excellent director, and excellent performances all around. The quality of this film is exceptional in every respect. Keep an eye out for theent films, so it's important that movies stay away from it.

Through his superb performance, saswata chatterjee adds the last touches of perfection to this masterpiece's great casting, staging, and costumes. Despite its length, this film is genuinely remarkable.

Would be hard pressed to name anything to lack about it. Direction, Cinematography, Costumes, they're all great. This Movie deserves all the praise anyone gives it and more. An inspirational movie. Classy direction.

In this particular scenario, the movie is presented in Bengali. Atanu Bose crafts a feature film that, in many ways, gives the impression that it is not a biography, beginning with the opening scene and continuing through the first half of the film.

. A biopic of actor Uttam Kumar is being made. West Bengal was the epicenter of his cult of personality. The guy who played the part in the movie did a fantastic job. Overall, it's a great movie with an impressive cast.

The film itself is a masterpiece of filmmaking, with a larger-than-life setting to convey a man's larger-than-life experience. A must-see, not just for history but also to get the excellent philosophical baseline we all want.

I believed the film did a fantastic job of faithfully capturing the time period in which it was set. This film makes the argument that, as long as one chooses the right method and remains confident in their decision, they may attain whatever level of success they so choose. Here is a really true and perfect representation of Uttam Kumar Ji.

In spite of this, the film's star-studded ensemble and a few passages that stick in the viewer's mind prevent it from becoming a banal and overused biographical cliché.
