Abir Chatterjee is the go-to man for every director for his versatility and his ability to pull off roles in any genre. Here, in ‘Aami Joy Chatterjee’, Abir plays an egocentric businessman going through a life-altering moment. The film offers a unique story that does not go alongside the regular murder thrillers of the Bengali film industry. It has a very different take on identity and life.

The film tells the story of a rich industrialist Mr. Joy Chatterjee, who is an utterly selfish and egoistic person. He experiences that something strange, something weird is happening to him and bringing him back to his past. Joy Chatterjee goes through a near-Death experience and his identity is under threat. He feels people close to him are not really recognising him anymore. The story goes on and Joy Chatterjee goes on a journey that changes his life.
There are some beautiful songs in the movie, including ‘Satronga Lukochuri’, ‘Na Na Na’, ‘Buddham Sharanam Gachchami’ and more. Aami Joy Chatterjee is carefully shot as well and is a soothing watch.
The film is pretty well rated and is a great watch for the weekend. If you are looking for a nice thriller, go watch it now. Bengali films deserve way more attention and admiration than they actually get. There are many hidden gems like ‘Aami Joy Chatterjee’ that will astonish you.
