Not sure if this movie I am going to ask about is mentioned in this thread...
A Bengali friend literally made me sit for a Satyajit Ray movie. And for some reason I really liked it. Did not understand any of the conversations but did get the story. I like Bengali language. A girl speaking Bengali is really melodious for me. The language has something special in it ![]() Okay the story goes something like this : A wannabe singer boy from a very poor family had some bad luck with the King of his Kingdom. Raged the king evicts him out of the village...on a donkey. He wanders around and somehow bumps into another wannabe music artist lad who too has been wandering... . .. They get some magic tools from someone (God?)...aaha...cannot remember much...but they had a good time using them. Go-anywhere-you-wish shoes, anytime-anywhere food, one gets the the most melodious voice and the other gets superb skills of playing a 'dapali' (not sure about its English word) What movie is this? Any guesses? It's a B&W, very old print movie. Would like to grab it whenever I get a chance. My signature here is a statement from the same movie.

Bhai Brishti both Gautam & Rituporno are very good film makers. A few days back I watched Bariwali by Rituporno, liked it very much.
Last year at the Osian film festival I watched Kaalpurush by buddhadeb impressive. |

'bhai' is a strange word to use, i agree - but then i thought... i dont know what i thought really... just took it for granted, brishti sounded girlie. then i thought, jyotida used 'bhai' as in a more formal 'yaar' kinda thing. kee jyotida? :brishti |
