Mandaar

When I heard about Mandaar being based on Macbeth,I was highly excited yet highly skeptical at the same time.Because first,executing an adaptation properly isn't everybody's cup of tea and second,Mandaar is the debut project of Anirban Bhattacharya.But after finally finishing Mandaar yesterday,I must admit that I am awestruck.This was a highly anticipated series and like me,perhaps everybody was in doubt about whether Anirban Bhattacharya is going to deliver or not.But he did,and he did that in such a way that Mandaar will be considered a landmark in the Bengali film industry,not just as one of the best adaptations of Macbeth,but also for its near-perfect execution in various fields. Quite a number of people have talked about various aspects of Mandaar such as the acting,the cinematography etc.Personally,I am attracted to the films which have beautiful exhibition of cinematographic excellence.But for Mandaar,I would like to specifically talk about the sound department,especially the performance of the folly artists. Overall,Mandaar sets the bar high in the Bengali web series industry,perhaps in the whole Tollywood industry too.I must say,if this is what a debutant director can offer,then every content from Anirban from now on is going to be mindblowing.
