Bengali Movie Borbaad 2014(Bengali Flim Review)

Borbaad

Director: Raj Chakraborty

Actor: Bonny Sengupta, Rittika Sen, Mainak Banerjee

Raj Chakrabarty has taken a bold step of working with two newcomers in Borbaad, the Independence Day release. Ritika, the female lead has acted in few films before, but Bonny, the male lead is even assisting Raj on the sets of Yoddha. Moreover the biggest test for Bonny is Borbaad. Why? His father happens to be Anup Sengupta, Pia Sengupta is his mother and Sukhen Das is his grandfather.

Bonny plays Joy, a young chap who spends his time playing carrom with his friends. He wants to buy a bike so that he can impress Nandini.
After buying the bike, he is able to win over Nandini and also gets a job. However after his bike is stolen, the real story unfolds. It seems the bike has been stolen by a gang which is led by Akram, an anti social who is involved in all illegal things. He only hurts people like him, no one else. Joy tries to counter them and restore parity. How he manages to do that is what the film is all about.

The film is targeted at the young crowd and is a masala film with lots of violence. While the film does a love story, the primary focus of the film after a while becomes the gang-war and Imran’s altercation with Joy and Akram trying to settle things. The end results in a gruesome manner.

The film is a remake of Polladhavan, the Tamil film of 2007. Bonny would seem to be a very young hero from South India instead of Tollywood . He has a beard which isn’t exactly a full grown one and the entire appearance. He is slightly built and his acting skills are perhaps better than other newcomers. Ritika has nothing much to do and doesn't look too promising either. Sudip Mukherjee is excellent as Akram and so is Mainak Banerjee as his younger brother. He has already played the lead in a few Bengali films before. A few of the songs from the film are very catchy and hummable including Raja Rani.
