A movie with a great promise dwindled in the middle and recaptured somewhat in the end. It begins with a bit of intrigue and the viewers are left a bit groping about what it is all about. A flashback starts revealing it and why all that is happening could be happening. A part of it drags on a bit though and this is where it loses some ground. What ensues then i.e. the continuation of the story in the present is interesting, especially the gimmicks by the hero with some risks related to his son. The usual nexus, tangles involving politicians, policemen etc. are brought out. A few twists and turns ensue, not all completely transparent, but that germ does restore the earlier promise. The Kolkata backdrop and its environment is used in an interesting manner.
