2.5/5BMR estimate
Amoy Deb Roy · Anandabazar Patrika · 23 Nov 2018
“Mainak Bhoumick offers a relatable look at modern teenage anxiety, but the predictable plot lacks emotional depth and features uneven performances that fail to leave a lasting impression.”
Why this score?
The critic gave no star rating, so BMR estimated one from the words of the review. The critic praises the strong performances of actors like Shantilal Mukherjee, but criticizes the predictable plot, artificial dialogue, and forgettable nature of the film. This combination of standard merit and heavy flaws points directly to a mixed, leaning negative verdict. How estimates work

3.5/5BMR estimate
Sangbad Pratidin · 24 Nov 2018
“The director captures modern youth culture and family dynamics through realistic acting, though one musical scene feels implausible without prior rehearsal.”
Why this score?
The critic gave no star rating, so BMR estimated one from the words of the review. The critic praises the realistic portrayal of the new generation, snappy dialogue, and standout performances by the cast. The only minor criticism is a logical flaw in a music scene regarding a lack of rehearsal. This lands the review on a positive rung with clear flaws. How estimates work
