Bismillah

A stellar ensemble with an outstanding performance by Ridhi Sen!

And what a powerful performance yet again. This is an actor who can invoke a range of emotions in his audience. His acting talent and script sense begs no introduction. But the magic he brings to characters such as the one he potrays in #Bismillah deserves kudos.

There is some length in the narration, but it is a story that is easy on the eyes and heart. It's the story of a young musicians journey.

Bengali cinema is doing wonders today by giving wings to ordinary, relatable narratives filled with exemplary performances. And it is doing a commendable job by putting together amazing ensemble to breathe life into these narratives. Reminiscent of the 80's and 90's, perhaps before that too. Routine commercial success driven cinema did take over this industry for a while so it is heartening to see good stories and lovely actors doing good work again.

Here's wishing great success and love to this lovable work of cinema named #Bismillah.
