Movie Review Chorabali Bengali Film 2016

When a psychiatrist gets murdered during a party, the invitees come under the scanner. Once in a while, one comes across a film that shatters pre-conceived notions and judgemental misgivings. Chorabali does that, in a steady flow, throughout the movie. You have to give the audience the benefit of doubt. After all, not many original thrillers have done too well in Bengal in the last few years. Though this is not an original per se (it claims to be inspired by more than one work of crime literature), it neither is an adaptation. The influence of Agatha Christie's Cards On The Table is evident, as are various other instances of inspiration. Sherlock, Feluda, Byomkesh, even Shakespeare — you name it, you will find it. However, the director is only too eager to affirm his influences, as the physical copy of the Hercule Poirot murder mystery makes an appearance right around the beginning of the film.
