BADSHAHI ANGTI: is a thriller film directed by Sandip Ray, based on the novel of same name by Satyajit Ray starring Abir Chatterjee,Sourav Das,Paran Bandyopadhyay,Deepankar De,Bharat Kaul,Biswajit Chakraborty.
PLOT: Feluda (Abir Chatterjee) and his cousin Topshe (Sourav Das) visit Lucknow with Topshe's father (Deepankar De) to spend the Puja vacation.They stayed at the house of Dhirendra Kumar Sanyal (Biswajit Chakraborty), a friend of Topshe's father.There,they meet Dr.Shrivastav(Bharat Kaul).They came to know from Dr.Shrivastav that he has a 'Ring of Aurangzeb' which was given to him by Pyarilaal Seth & someone wants to steal it.So he decided to keep that ring at Dhiru uncle's custody.But next day,the ring was missing from there.Meanwhile, Feluda meets an interesting person in doctor's neighbourhood, Mr. Bonobihari Sarkar (Paran Bandyopadhyay).Bonobihari babu has ferocious and poisonous creatures like crocodile, African tiger,hyena, rattlesnake, scorpion and black widow spider in his own home.Now Feluda & Topshe started investigation.How did they solve the mystery was rest of the story.
PERFORMANCE: Abir as Feluda was very good.As per the storyline,a fresh & young face required for the role of Feluda & Abir was perfect match.He tried very hard to justify his role.Sourav Das as Topshe was total blunder & wrong choice for this popular character.Paran Bandyopadhyay was also very good.Biswajit Chakraborty,Bharat Kaul,Deepankar De were also good.
After watching Soumitra Chatterjee & Sabyasachi Chakraborty portraying the role of Feluda,it will be little hard to accept Abir as Feluda as its his 1st Feluda film.Lal Mohan Ganguly aka Jatayu was very much missed.Cinematography,background score were not up to the mark.
Overall,Badshahi Angti is surely watchable film but this is not the best Feluda film directed by Sandip Roy.
