Cool movie in truss living life
kpapababu20 September 2023
Fata Fati If you look at me, you will know my weight and sizeAnd the size of my dreams is 100,100,100 -The movie ends with Phooora (actress Ritabhari Chakraborty) saying...

But The words of direct competition and insults directed at her shape pierce Etella's mind The role of Phulora in this movie is that she brings out her amazing talent from all the pains.

Flowera Fashion on Insta without showing your face Post box scene

A scene where the husband and family members stand by the middle class family

(Ritabhari's) performance in the scenes of walking on the ramp in the fashion show is popular

The scene where fat women, despite their shape and many problems in life, get together and forget about everything and have a cup of coffee is great.

Must see.

Fatafati- a good self esteem booster
tiyasabss17 May 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Good for a light solo movie day! Topic of concern is good and hence should be watched. There are some exaggerations at some places but as it's a reel world, so we can avoid that part. I felt that at some places there could be changes, like one of Phullora's friends could have been thin so that a negative portrayal on thin people could be avoided. Few scenes are lovely and will catch attention. Also, Poushali did a great job with the Phullora song. Most of the songs are soothing. Even the acting was good. Ritabhari was on point as usual, same for Soma and Arijita. Sanghashri's cycle scene was my favourite part. Overall a good movie to watch if you're suffering from low self esteem, mainly if you're obese.

This Is A Very Unique Concept In Bengali Cinema.
rajmakoley22 May 2023
"Fashion isn't about how chubby or slim you are, fashion is about celebrating yourself " this is the main concept of this film. This is a very unique concept in bengali cinema. I don't think so, there has been a movie about this kind of thing before.

Director Aritra Mukherjee's Direction is awesome. There will be no talk about the story of the movie, in one word it is great. Applicable dialogues have been put in this movie. The biggest thing is, the quarrel between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was not shown unnecessarily.

There are some songs in the movie. These are very good. Nice to hear and see. Background music are also good.

Let's talk about acting, Ritabhari Chakraborty (Fullora Bhaduri), Abir Chatterjee (Bachoshpoti Bhaduri), Swastika Dutta (The Biki Sen), Soma Banerjee (Bachoshpoti's Mother), Raktim Samanta (Bachoshpoti's Brother) are the main characters in this movie. They portray their own characters very well. Separately applauded to Ritabhari Chakraborty and Abir Chatterjee. Also other casts are there in the movie. They are very good.

  • Rajma Koley.

DREAM OF A GIRL #Fatafati
basusubhranil15 May 2023
I have just seen this movie. Now,i just wanna give my honest opinion about this .. Abir Chatterjee as usual very natural in his character of Bachaspati..@ritabharipc as phullora must be appreciated..she justifies phullora so well. Rest of the characters of this film match the vives and tempo..swastika as Biki Sen attracts peoples attention. Director Aritra Mukherjee deserves a wow..Windows as a production house done a great job. So,the story of a middle class girl who is fat but live her life by her own choice. It is a story that tells us how we do our daily chores but never leave our dreams #fatafati.

Excellent execution of a global issue
degugli15 May 2023
Aritra Mukherjee's Fatafati has a decent grip on the perils of both fatphobia and skinny-worshipping but manages to distil its size positivity from becoming unrelenting. It's a clever approach too because the film's message weaves in ideas of body neutrality; instead of telling women how they should feel about their bodies, the film basically says they are much more than their bodily flaws or beauties.

Ritabhari Chakraborty plays Phullara, a plus-sized seamstress-turned-influencer from a small town who with the help of her brother-in-law starts a body-positive social media page. A very well executed global issue of obesity and over weighted people . In short I should say it is a masterpiece.

FATAFATI IS REALLY FATAFATI
tushikar15 May 2023
This is a beautiful movie with a great message to convey. Body shaming is a crime as it affects a person psychologically. Phullora's story is an example of how one should ignore all the comments regarding one's shape and size and concentrate on his/her work. Success is the best answer to all sorts of criticism. It is high time that we, as a society, stop all these. The film entails some heart touching performance by the lead artists and is a family entertainment. It's absolutely essential to encourage Bengali movies of this kind because it does not promote any negative idea. Go and watch Fatafati and recommend it to all your friends and family. This film gives a positive message which is absolutely essential for today's youth.

Love Swastika Dutta as Biki SEN
neelaguha17 May 2023
Love Bikki Sen. I don't know why but I found her to be very relatable. I have a neighbour, who is always gossiping about what others wear, what they eat, what their body weight is, what their public conduct is like and how all these should ideally be and passes on all the information to her circle. So, all these women are always body shaming the rest of the neighbourhood. I have been under their scanner several times and no matter how much I detest them or want to raise my voice, something in me has barred me from doing that. Fatafati is an answer to the Bikki Sens of the world. I hope all these aunties watch the film and realise what a mess they have been to us. Performance wise too, Swastika Dutta as Bikki Sen has been quite a revelation. She has broken image to do this and hats off!

WE ARE NOT MEDIOCRE .WE ARE BEST.#FATAFATI
anujkarmakar-3462116 May 2023
Director Aritra Mukherjee done a great job. Ritabhari and off course Abir Chatterjee acted so well. Rest of the casts have done their work superbly.. The name 'FATAFATI' really justifies. This movie shows the real truth of the so called society. Now a days body shaming gives such a negative impact on the society. We should thing about this. Not only good look matters.. Quality matters more than it. This movie emphasizes this fact. A simple middle class married woman, despite of every hurdles in her life, keep going on to fulfill her dream. This movie touches my heart. We are not mediocre. We are best. I just loved it. I have given my review and rating. Now it's your turn.

FATAFATI MOVIE
sahapadma-1205616 May 2023
This is a well made movie with a great message to convey. Body shaming is a crime as it affects a person psychologically. Phullora's story is not an uncommon incident. It is an example of how one should ignore all the comments regarding one's shape and size and concentrate on his/her work. It is high time that we, as a society, stop being judgemental. The film boasts of some genuinely Google performance by the lead artists and is a family entertainment. It's absolutely essential to encourage Bengali movies of this kind because it does not promote any negative idea. Go and watch Fatafati and recommend it to all your friends and family. This film gives a positive message which is absolutely essential for today's youth.

#fatafati is just awesome movie
kumkumkha15 May 2023
Ritabhari Chakraborty's much awaited Fatafati recently witnessed a theatrical release and has received nothing but praises from audiences of all age groups. The film has surpassed expectations of every viewer and Ritabhari has delivered beyond what was expected from her.

Instead of opting for fake body makeup, prosthetics and more, Ritabhari opted to gain 25 kilos to fit into the character and express real unfiltered emotions on-screen. Ritabhari's dedication to her craft is unmatched and can never be weighed. The actress is also seen actively promoting to love and appreciate ourselves and our bodies a little more every day. This message has reached a Pan-India audience and the viewers are praising her to stir conversations online about body positivity and more. The actress also expressed gratitude for all the love.

Ritabhari with a heart full and wide smile pen, "I'm so so grateful for everyone who watched the film and experienced it. I've read the reviews online and it feels so good that the film struck the right chord with the audience, and they could resonate with some instances in real life and more. Fatafati is yours now to experience and gratitude only for everything."

Fatafati is directed by Aritra Mukherjee. She will be sharing the screen space opposite Abir Chatterjee for the first time, and popular TV actress Swastika Dutta in a pivotal role. Story & Screenplay is by Zinia Sen, and Dialogues are given by Samragnee Bandyopadhyay, produced by Windows.

Such a beautiful depiction of romance!
dhruvbs-9148017 May 2023
At a time when family values are degenerating by the day and we often champion broken families, sibling rivalries, cheating husband and wife, Fatafati appears to be a pleasant change. I don't remember after Badhaai Ho, in which film I saw these moments between a husband and wife. Here Fullora and Bachospoti felt as if they complete each other. So, when there's no money, they still do their best to share their income and look after the best interests of the family members. Even when they were away from each other, they still looked very much together. I was blown away by this age-old romance between a man and woman in a modern film. Honestly, I did not expect this. Also, kudos to Ritabhari Chakraborty and Abir Chatterjee for making this story look so believable. They have done a very good job and I hope they pair up in more such films.

IT'S A MUST WATCH FLIM
mbiplab-3247815 May 2023
The measure of beauty is measured. There is no point in going around a bit. That is the red spot on the mark sheet.

How long have women been forced to cope with this demand? And entertainment movies are equally encouraged.

Almost everyone knows that the general construction of the heroines is created to make the male eye worthwhile.

By 'men' here, however, I am not just referring to gender-identified men. I am talking about a particular mentality. Victims of that mentality are, unfortunately, often women themselves. Even today, our progressive society is looking for a young body in advertisement for bride wanted. The news shows how hard the heroines work to get slim.

A rose of praise is picked up for that sneaky appearance. And, the woman who is away from these, what does she do? For her, there is a feeling of depression and despair.

Sometimes it becomes fatal. Especially, in the case of young people. It is from that place that '' strikes me as a wonderful Fatafati slap.

Fortunately, the wave of change over time is being felt in the media and elsewhere. A few days ago, an actress refused to advertise fairness cream.

It's a clever approach too because the film's message weaves in ideas of body neutrality; instead of telling women how they should feel about their bodies, the film basically says they are much more than their bodily flaws or beauties.

Ritabhari Chakraborty plays Phullara, a plus-sized seamstress-turned-influencer from a small town who with the help of her brother-in-law starts a body-positive social media page. She lives next door to Biki Sen (Swastika Dutta), a fashion and wellness influencer who never misses a chance to size-shame her. Phullara's husband Bachaspati (Abir Chatterjee) is smitten with her, her mum-law is not problematic in any real way and she has a supportive peer group. Very little gets in her way in the first half, (except maybe Biki and a fatphobic autowallah), which makes for a sleepy first hour. But we recommend not leaving midway because turns out the makers saved most of the drama for the second half.

A movie very close to heart!
abhrabasu17 May 2023
My biggest takeaway from the film is the romance between Phullora and Bachospoti Bhaduri, played by Ritabhari Chakraborty and Abir Chatterjee. Their daily exchanges were so real, particularly where they talk over the phone about the distribution of the monthly income; there was nothing forced. They looked every bit in love, enjoying the conjugal bliss, where having little money is not a problem anymore. No one was singing or dancing around trees unnecessarily. There was no forced humour, below the belt jokes, talking lowly about marriage, as it is not a slapstick comedy. It tugged at the heartstrings and also, I saw the audience laughing and crying with Bikki Sen (Swastika Dutta), Behula, Gogol, Arunadi, Seema boudi and the rest. People outside Star Theatre, where I watched the film, were screaming the film's now-famous tagline: 'Amra mota hote pari kintu amader jibonta motamuti noy, fatafati'. What a beautiful story it is!

This is an inspirational movie
royrupa-8376718 May 2023
Fullora's journey has inspired me a great deal. As a teenager, I would be called fat and ugly. My cousins would laugh at me, my schoolmates would discriminate me when it came to sports and never giving me a chance to take part. I tried everything from routine exercises and stringent diets, surviving only on cucumber and yogurt for days on end, which changed my relationship with food. Food would bring me a lot of fear, which was terrible. Now, 35 kilos down, I am all of 62 Kg. But only I know what I have been through half my life. When I saw Fullora accepting herself and taking on the world to prove her mettle, I was a bit sad. I could never muster the courage to give it back to the offenders, I would only secretly cry. The whole idea is to accept yourself the way you are. I hope I had done that.

This is a brilliant movie with a great message . Body shaming is an offense as it affects a person psychologically.

Soft lovestory with a great message
sinharima-8764417 May 2023
I am immensely moved by the love story of the lead couple, played by Abir Chatterjee and Ritabhari Chakraborty. Bachospoti Bhaduri is honestly a dream husband, a doting son and a caring brother. He ticks too many boxes perfectly that the bar for Indian men has automatically raised. But I believe there are these men that exist in real too. Phullora, on the other hand, has big dreams that she pens secretly for herself, without knowing how they will ever turn into reality. She lacks confidence at the beginning as her confidence is shaken up by THE BIKKI SEN. But she finally gets the courage to face Bikki and also her own self on the ramp and the ending is truly like a painting in motion. I think Fatafati will go on to inspire many, many men and women out there, who feel lack of confidence because of their body weight.
