Pari: a tale of an angel

 Pari : a tale of an angel 

This is not a typical ghost story. If you ever watched Let Me In; which is a story about a little boy being friends with a girl who turned out to be a vampire, you would surely liked this one.



The characters are unique in their own way.The religious guru which is portrayed by Rajat Kapoor hunts down a djinn who is the most dangerous evil spirit in his beliefs. He then tortures them mercilessly before finally killing them. He may be doing a right job, but doesn't that makes him an angel? 

In other way, Arnab is a shy guy who is soon to be married to Piyali, a doctor whom he met on a blind date. However on their way back home, they hit a person and she died on the spot. When they trying to get her relatives to settle things, Arnab only found a woman chained in a small hut; who happen to be her daughter; Rukshana.

 


A series of events led Rukshana to Arnab's place and you definitely have to watch the movie to see it unfolds. What I can't forget the most is Arnab's phrase to Piyali when he finally come to sense, "If she is a monster, then what does that make me? I left her all alone"

The last part is totally unsettling. You either love it or hate it. 'Pari' is not a fairytale. Not totally a ghost story either. It deals with a normal scenery of everyday life and everyone have their own reasons for their actions. 

Never before have I seen a movie that leaves me so mystified before.

Aparajito The unvanquished..

 Aparajito The Unvanquished.. "A film about changing films"- describes the film perfectly, it shows how an ordinary filmophile can make a film different from all the conventions and change the vision towards film forever. The film is not only about how Ray made a masterpiece but also about himself. Now coming to acting, Jeetu Kamal, impeccable ... awesome! It doesn't just happen in imitation and make-up, if Ray doesn't mix in life. Our expectations have multiplied. Every artist's performance is appropriate ... from the smallest manik to Sarvamangala ... Bimala .. 'Pather Padabali' team ... Nanibala ... everyone is impeccable. I do not have the audacity to talk about direction. The struggle behind the making of 'Pather Panchali', the remake of some of its scenes, the story of an educated-progressive couple with the subtlety in which director Anik Dutta has woven can only amaze and fascinate! At least that's what my little brain says.Music of Deb
