Bari Theke Paliye (1958)

".. adventure film is based on a kaleidoscopic novel by.. Shibram Chakraborty"

[7/10 · 19 February 2021]

First I want to say thanks to the guy or group who made this film available online, otherwise we have been searching for a good print for years now. This adventure film is based on a kaleidoscopic novel by one of the greatest author Shibram Chakraborty i.e. about a boy, getting inspired by the stories of El Dorado, running away to come to the then Calcutta. The songs are so much good an apt that I remember almost all of them from my childhood when I was unaware about this film, book or the director; music was composed by the legendary Salil Chowdhury. Another value addition is casting the timeless superstars in all supporting roles - Kali Banerjee, Nripati Chatterjee, Bijon Bhatacharya, Manu Mukhopadhyay, Gyanesh Mukherjee, Jahar Roy, Keshto Mukherjee and so on. One of the early entires from here to show, or hint, about an adolescent infatuation on screen.
