The story
A young boy Manoj, who lives among the chaos and weirdness of his joint family, where the musician uncle feels suicidal after singing a wrong music note and a teacher who won’t remember his education if he sits straight. Then there is the great-grandmother who is wreaking havoc around the house. Set in a small town in West Bengal, the story takes an interesting turn when Manoj’s cow runs away and at the same time there is a group of vicious dacoits who are planning to rob the King. How things fall back into place is a story filled with drama and action and lots of laughter.
Directed by Anindya Chatterjee. Starring Abir Chatterjee, Soumitra Chatterjee, Bratya Basu, Silajit Majumder, Sohag Sen, Ambarish Bhattacharya.

1.5/5BMR estimate
Bhaskar Chattopadhyay · Firstpost · 24 Nov 2018
“The author appreciated the touching opening and closing appearances by the original writer, but found the rest of the feature a weak and failing adaptation.”
Read full review ↗Why this score?
The critic gave no star rating, so BMR estimated one from the words of the review. The critic praises the author's cameo appearance and occasional funny moments, but harshly criticizes the film as an incoherent bore with exaggerated performances and a poor adaptation. This strongly negative verdict lands the review firmly in the poor, little to admire range. How estimates work

4.0/5BMR estimate
Amitava Nag · Silhouette Magazine · 25 Oct 2018
“The feature successfully captures the original novel's delightful wit through a wonderful ensemble cast, though a few narrative build-ups feel a bit cliché.”

The critic gave no star rating, so BMR estimated one from the words of the review. The review praises the film as a delightful children's comedy and one of the best of the year, while noting a few minor aberrations and unconvincing subplots. This strongly positive reception with a few reservations lands squarely on a four-star rating. How estimates work

“This whimsical adaptation features an impressively talented cast and captures the charming innocence of the original story, despite feeling overcrowded with too many overlapping character arcs.”
