Our take

Weaving an intricate tale around the deceptively simple the art of making jaggery, Sudhendu Roy beautifully brings the humdrum of a Bengali village to life. Amitabh Bachchan’s effortless portrayal of the twisted lead and Nutan’s earthy calm add intense emotional depth to this complex drama.
