Bor Ashbe Ekhuni (2008)
Bor Ashbe Ekhuni - Jisshu Sengupta, Koel Mullick
Director: Rangan Chakraborty
Producer: Bangla Talkies
Cast: Jisshu Sengupta, Koel Mullick, Kanchan Mullick
Only few weeks back we have seen the big release of Jisshu-Koel starred “LOVE” directed by Ringo. A superb romantic movie with great camera work, dialogs, locations and what not. Koel did excellent work in LOVE. LOVE is few of the recent Bengali films that was not copied from South Movie Hits. The movie did not do very well possibly as the movie was specially targeted towards city people. It was a sad ending story anyway!
Well, not the HIT couple Jisshu Sengupta - Koel Mullick is back again this Friday to rock Calcutta with yet another Bengali Feature Film “ Bor Ashbe Ekhuni“. This is also a nice movie directed by Rangan Chakraborty and produced by Bangla Talkies. Jisshu Sengupta plays a role of modern software engineer while Koel plays the role of a rural girl. Jisshu falls in love with Koel at first sight. Koel was looking for an apartment but as young unmarried lasy she could not manage any. She ties up with Jisshu Sengupta to play a real life drama of husband and wife to get an apartment. However, they promise not to perform any sexual act during their stay! Kanchan Mullick has done excellent work as Jisshu Sengupta’s friend in Bor Ashbe Ekhuni. He plays the role of a cameraman who works in TV serials. The song “Dol Dol Doluni, Bor Ashbe Ekhuni” is going to be popular hit number for sure.
The movie is a remake of super hit Priyadarshan comedy Golmal!
Bor Ashbe Ekhuni - Jisshu - Koel

Ghar Jamai (2008): Prasenjit - Namrata
Director: Anup Sengupta
Casts: Prasenjit, Namrata, Abhishek Chatterjee, Piya Sengupta
Music: Gautam Susmit
Ghar Jamai - Prasenjit
Short Review:
Well, the best part of Bengali movies is this - You Do Not Have To Watch The Film to write a review!!! You would pretty much know all about the story the the Title. Simple “Ghar Jamai” means should be a family type drama with some sentimental scenes. Prasenjit is the hero, so some break dance and fight scenes. Abhishek is also there, so might be some “Yeh Dosti, Hum Nehi Chorenge”…
Anup Sengupta is the director. Still his name is not so famous. More famous if Gautam Susmit for making numerous loud musical tunes in Bengali Films. It is surprsing that Ghar Jamai released the same day with another Prasenjit movie Khela by Rituporna Ghosh. There is nothing special about the movie. So, if you are not going to watch it, I would not blame too much.
Please review the film in Detail if you have watched it in the theater.
