*MAY HOLD SOME SPOILERS. EVADE IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE MOVIE*

There are very scarce movies which make sense in real life. Buno Haansh is one of those films. It is a story of a common middle-class lad, Amol who daydreams of getting bigger, not for himself, but for his household and contacts. He used to live a small life covering his love interest, Sohag and his family. He encounters his old colleague who takes him to Madam, the deity of the bad world. Amol gets a chance of living his dreams and gets involve into the hazardous trafficking business. He is absolutely unaware of his track, but he continues to walk or rather run on this new runway, the underworld's runway. He bumps into new individuals on his journey which brings a new definition to his life. This new life has necessity, gluttony, pursuit, money and gore. Will Amol be able to escape from his new life is what the story is all about.

The story is truly eye-catching, credits to Samaresh Majumdar. The director introduces us to all the characters at the first minutes of the movie. Amol stays with his mother, his sister-in-law and his brother. They are living in poverty and somehow exhausted of their condition. He works at a mall where he encounters Robin and the key story starts. He complements emotional factor to the entire design which takes the movie to another level. Amol starts drifting down risky ways with fear as he flies from Kolkata to Dhaka to Bangkok. He is still uninformed of his future. In the meantime, he meets Rijula and his life takes another huge turn and the rest? Better go watch the film.

I haven't read the book, but I overheard that there are many alterations in the script which actually makes the flick better. Amol's sister in law used to be a selfish woman which is totally different here. There are new characters here. Even the climax of the movie is a bit different. I sensed that the director did an amusing job making those modifications. The cinematographer has done a brilliant job. The music should get a 20 out of 10 points, extra 10 points for adding a great texture to the movie. "Zindagi Kabhi Thamti Nehi" is actually the theme of the movie. Shantanu Da, Anindya Da, Chandril da Kudos

Director – Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury takes an entirely different writing from what he actually does, a whodunit instead of an emotional-romantic flick. This actually helps the movie as he adds his own original feels to the film. The film is a bit slow during the first half, but Shoojit Sircar comes to rescue. The climax is outstanding.

Acting – The movie comprises big names. Shankar Chakraborty, Shantilal Mukherjee, Gargi RoyChowdhury, Sohag Sen, Arindam Sil everybody has done a great job. Moon Moon Sen is the ultimate choice for Madam. Srabanti does miracles in his short and sweet role. Tanusree Chakraborty adds a great intensity with her avaricious yet candid role. Sudiptaa Chakraborty – I simply adore her act, with splendid dialogue throwing and great expressions, she boosts the entire movie.

It's a must watch for every film lovers. I'm sure that they will surely love the sentiment and the ecstasy of this film. 8/10.

P.S. I overlooked something? Yes, I suppose. How was our "Mahanayak Dev's acting? Ans – I would say that there is simply no one who could have done Amol's role with such aptness. He worked hard and did an awesome job in this movie. Bonu Haansh is his best performance till date, the BEST!
