Bagha Jatin is a perfect blend of mass and class. Dev delivers emotional depth and showcases his action skills, especially in battles against the British and a tiger. He brings that mass superstar charm and screen presence that we haven't seen from him in years. The film incorporates various massy elements where he truly shines. Dev brings Jatindranath Mukherjee to life, and this may be his best entry scene since 'Challenge.'
The music and background score are top-notch which creates a big impact. The rest of the cast complements Dev quite well. Arun Roy, once again, proves himself as the go-to director for historical biopics. The story covers ideology, politics, and a formidable villain. His vision and scale are reflected in every frame and action. Bagha Jatin is a cinematic gem in the Bengali film industry that truly shines on the big screen.
In today's day and age of family dramas and detective films in Bengal, movies with such vision deserve appreciation. Dev's maturity and commitment to the role, both as an actor and producer, are evident and remarkable.
