Kaustav Kakati

Very aesthetic in every sense- how the story unfolds, the cinematography, the sights of the lofty Himalayan peaks, particularly the Chaukhambha, the raging beauty of the Bhagirathi sweeping all that stands before her and the burning issues of casteism and gender inequality- all handled with an elegance by the director befitting the beauty of the Himalayas. And Victor Banerjee once again proves that he's possibly the most underrated actor to have emerged from India! The spirituality is not blatant, in your face but seeps into soul by the last reel!
