Sundays are the best time to shuffle some nostalgia, and what is better than, some Rabindranath Tagore adaptation.
Based onTagore’s famous political novel “Ghare Baire”, (Home and The World), “Ghawre Bairey Aaj” is a modern take of this novel.
Before it has been adapted as a film this novel was performed as a play, and from that it has been modified into a movie.
Directed by Aparna Sen, this movie deals with a dalit woman named “Bimla” and her struggle to find a place in society and somehow explore womanhood.
On the other hand we have two childhood friends Nikhilesh and Sandip, both of them hold a very different political agenda.
And, how it clashes with one another is depicted beautifully in the movie.
Aparna Sen masterfully adapted this series, keeping the essence of Tagore in the modern world.
The movie was released in 2019, with Jisshu Sengupta, Anirban Bhattacharya, Tuhina Das, Anjan Dutta, and Rwitobroto Mukherjee in the titular role.
This is a perfect movie to delve into if you want to enjoy some pure politics of past bengal.
