I was on a no-movie-till-prof stance. Save for the Pirates which I revised only weeks ago. But I had to break the break cool, thanks to some must watch movies. It all started with Aisha at Cinemax on Aug 6, an Abhay Deol starrer. Then it was Byomkesh Bakshi at Inox last week. Then Inception at Cinemax. And today watched Peepli Live and Byomkesh Bakshi back to back at Cinemax. Actually today after watching Peepli I could watch either Byomkesh or Expendables. I went for a Byomkesh rewatch.

Having watched all of them, I have been asked by friends which one to watch! Well, as an ardent Sharadindu fan I wish you watched Byomkesh in a theater. It’s most definitely not a great movie, but we need to support the cause of good Bengali movies, so they may get better! So give this a thoughtl! Other movies you can watch later at the comfort of your computer!

If your brain is taxed and can’t take serious stuff, go for Aisha. A cool and funky romantic comedy. Not much brain stuff. Total entertainment. However, if you hate no-brainers please go for Peepli Lives for this is one delightful satire. A very serious and sensitive issue told in the most humorous way!
