Punorjonmo (2021)
Tantalisingly thrilling!
This drama natok (equivalent to a telefilm) is the epitomy of perfection in the genre of Suspense and Thrillers. The director is widely acclaimed for his, often out of the box thinking in storytelling through a gripping screenplay and skillfully utilising the on-screen equivalent of sleight-of-hand screenplay to hide the main twist in plain sight from the viewer, cleverly weaved easter eggs to the main plot of the story and masterfully revealing it all at the very end! And "Punorjonmo" is no different from that style. I love how his characters never seemed inconsistent and their motivations are never vague, no matter how strange they may seem at the surface with respect to the usual social norms and cultural beliefs. This piece of work makes the viewer question the very core of one's belief on how far one could go to get revenge for a betrayal and the menacing tone suspense that arises from the constant tension between the characters always makes you feel on the edge of your couch, wondering what might happen to the protagonist, only to find, "it was someone else all along"!
I am ecstatic to see a mini series has been born out of this masterpiece of a thriller and will be anxiously waiting to see where the story takes us from here...
