| User ReviewSushma SThis is perhaps by far an artistic tale of the possibilities yet an unexpected one upon what people really want their beliefs to appear as- especially when Jackie requests the devi idol to appear like the queen of england-shocking! |
| User ReviewAvradip SDark ,full of pathos and raw emotional moments. Shards of reality of a bygone era dig their claws deep in you. The movie will stay on with you long after the end credits roll. All the actors are perfect but it's Roopa Ganguly who steals the show with a stellar performance as the tormented first wife of the zamindaar played by Jackie Shroff. |
