Professor Shanku has always been one of the fascinating characters in Bengali Literature. So the usual excitement was generally there when this film got announced. Even after watching the trailer; I kept my hope. Too bad, that didn't turn out fruitful! Very sluggishly written plot, with performances and not much sense in the story made me cringe the entire run time. I was just thinking, how bad this film could gradually be! I could have easily overlooked the technical deficiencies had the story been satisfying! But I couldn't fathom the stupidity it holds. I was just so surprised at the fact that the makers have so badly exploited the opportunity of bringing the nostalgic element to a Shanku Movie. And what can I say about the 'Acting'; or should I use the prefix 'Over' before it! The amount of cringe was overwhelming. As an Avid reader of Shanku Series written by the Great Satyajit Ray; I am thoroughly disgusted on this movie representation. Not at all recommended.
