The film is starring Anirban Bhattacharya,Arna Mukhopadhyay, Sohini Sarkar & Ditipriya Roy.
The film is divided into several parts, akin to theatrical acts. Director Arna Mukhopadhyay played the role of Atthoi, and fans say that his character was overpowered by Anirban’s screen timing.
Sohini Sarkar’s role is mostly confined to tears and silence but yet an impactful role.On the other hand Ditipriya Roy again proves her great acting skills.
However, the movie tends to lose it’s plot from time to time. The story later on goes from jealousy and revenge to more like a play, involving many reasons only for a dramatic closure.
