Padatik

The themes of Padatik are intricately and irreversibly braided with the qualities and beliefs of the protagonist himself. It is a coming of age narrative where the sub- themes revolve around survival and perseverance, love and friendship. Society comes in as a theme in the film because of the role it plays in Sen's life and work.

"Progress" becomes a primary and a sub theme in both senses of the term and these sub themes aid in attributing special attention to the complex political milieu that Sen lived in and left behind.

Joto Kando Kolkatatei

Saba is on her first visit to Calcutta in search of her roots.

Saba's mother Maya was adopted by a doctor Rehman after the untimely passing away of her biological parents. The address in her parents' ids were found to be fake. However, her true background could never be ascertained and remained shrouded in mystery. Maya would keep the photo ids of her biological parents along with her foster ones (who had also died by then) on her bedside table. One day Saba noticed the stamp of an old photo studio in Kolkata behind the photographs of her grandparents. She decides to follow this clue and find her roots.

Saba's search starts at the decrepit building which used to be the old photo studio. Next stop, the Roychoudhury ancestral home, 'Maya Kunjo. Here she meets the remaining members of her biological grandfather Alok. Alok Roy Chowdhury came from a wealthy aristocratic Bengali family in Calcutta. In the mid- fifties, the young Alok who had just returned after completing his studies from England, fell in love with suzanne, an attractive Anglo Indian crooner at a famous park street nightclub, Trincas. It was an iconic place in Kolkata during 1950's. It is the only place in Park Street that has never brought the curtains down.

Later in the film Saba unearths what had transpired. Alok and Suzy had fled the city and went into hiding for some time in a secluded tea garden bungalow near Darjeeling. They completely obliterated their past and tried to start a new life.

They find a confidential letter, which N N Roychowdhury had left behind for his son Alok, if he ever returned. The letter had a curious riddle that supposedly leads to something precious & valuable. Sabah is intrigued and takes it upon herself to get to the bottom of it.

As the story unfolds, Bouddhayan Chatterjee, an elderly erudite Bengali gentleman, an authority on Calcutta's history and heritage, helps her in solving this puzzle. In the course of her search she meets Topshey, a young virtual tour guide in Kolkata. Throughout the mystery adventure that the two embark upon, Topshey keeps giving Pheluda references and quizzes Saba on the detective stories.

This journey takes them St John's church in Kolkata to a boarding school in Darjeeling hitting a dead end. But suddenly they inadvertently hit upon the biggest clue to their puzzle and finally find their answers and resolutions as skeletons tumble out of the closet leading to happy celebrations of a happy ending.

Hubba

The film is an edgy and spine -chilling thriller about the notorious anti-social Bimal Mandal, who ruled the Rishra-Hindmotor-Konnagar area for years until his reign of terror was choked, once by his arrest by the sharp super cop, DIG, CID Divakar Sen, on December 22, 2005. However, the notorious criminal, who had numerous gruesome murders to his credit, got away due to lack of evidence against him. Finally he was betrayed and murdered by his trusted associates, in 2011, as is often the fate of such ferocious kingpins. Hubba's unpredictable behavior, sharp intelligence, volatile nature and unnatural lust for the feel of that first squirt of blood on his skin, each time he slashes the victims in a particular way, adds a certain para- normal scare to his strange psyche, and yet we see glimpses of a passionate lover, responsible husband and sometimes a childlike innocence in the protagonist. Hubba's obsession with films and heroines and his lust for power sees him exploit and be exploited by a certain political leader. The brilliant game of outsmarting one another, between the cop, Divakar Sen and Hubba, adds a heady and racy pace to the story, until the two seem to become like alter egos of one another and leaves us wondering about that thin line of morality which often gets blurred.

Shesh Pata

The film intends to get into precise details of the artist's life so as to expose the obstructions, understand the strength of creative aspirations, and to ablaze with the delightful journey of the artistic soul that unfortunately got cut short. However, this film is envisaged to be in coherence with the belief in the unending journey of the artist who still remains alive with the lively river and the living art.
