Anjan finally found Ranjana

Last evening I went to Big Cinemas to watch the much hyped and talked about new film 'Ranjana Ami Ar Ashbo Na' by Singer/Writer/Actor/Director - Anjan Dutt. I really can't remember the last time I watch a Bengali film, and that too on big screen.

Anyway, the script was decent, acting was a also decent, with some high points here and there. Parno Mittra did a decent job, but has a long way to go on her acting skills, but still managed to pull off a believable performance. I'd have thought, being surrounded by legendary rockers like Lou, Amit & Nandan, her performance on stage as a rocker would have been better. She missed some of the finer nuances of being a singer/rocker on the stage scenes. But that said some of the emotional scenes between her and Anjan Dutt were very nicely done.

Anjan, well he was Anjan. I might be a bit biased in my opinion having dealt with the Anjan Da in real life, he was himself. Ofcourse I will add that he did put on a good performance on screen.

The characters I liked in terms of their performance as actors on screen were those of Ushasie Chakraborty, as a reporter with Star Ananda and Lew Hilt, the basist of Anjan's band and dear friend in the movie. Both of them played their parts really well.

The music in the movie was ok and very basic. I didn't think there was any song, well except the legendary opening song "Ranjana'.

Overall 'Ranjana Ami Ar Ashbo Na' was worth the money I spent.

  1. Rohit, i saw Anjan once, but never really interacted with him..I saw his Madly Banglee and some of the telefilms that he produced they were fairly decent, I actually quite like Madly Bangalee..

    so I have a picture of what kind of person might be..but how is like in real life?

The 7 Wonders at Eco Park

Pyramid & Sphinx Our last excursion to Eco Park in Rajarhat dates all the way back to February 2015. Since then, a myriad of transformations has swept through the park. During a recent journey to the airport, we caught sight of the park's latest additions, which had become the talk of the town, visible from Biswa Banga Sarani. That sighting ignited our decision to revisit the park. Naturally, we concurred that visiting on a weekend would be an exercise in chaos, so we opted for a weekday to fully savor the wonders that awaited us. To our surprise, even on a weekday, the park teemed with visitors. Upon entering Eco Park for a nominal fee of Rs. 30, we were immediately struck by the sheer value it offered. Personally, I would have willingly paid more for the privilege of glimpsing these marvelous creations. Rather than expound further, I'll let the images convey the essence of what lies within. That being said, it unquestionably merits an in-person visit to truly appreciate ...

Vintage Car Show 2018 at The Tollygunge Club

1947 MG TC So here we are once more at The Tollygunge Club on a cold winter morning to catch some rare beauties to warm our hearts. I try to catch these every year if possible and after my recent trip and the number of cars I've seen on it, one would think I'd give it a miss. This year's collection had most of the usual cars with an addition of some more to the fray.  What disappointed though was the limited number of super cars on display. But all that said, it's always a joy to see these wonderful gems still being cared for by their owners and offering us a glimpse into automotive history. So with that much said, I hope you'll enjoy the pictures of the cars below. 1947 MG TC 1938 Rolls-Royce 1938 Rolls-Royce 1953 Land Rover 1932 Ford V8 1932 Ford V8 1950 Cadillac V8 1950 Cadillac V8 1950 Cadillac V8 1956 BSA Bantam 1952 Willy's Jeep 1962 Triumph Spitfire 1962 Triumph Spitfire 1925...
