15 Park Avenue

I loved the film. Both Sens have done a terrific job and so has Rahul Bose. But Shabana's underplayed role simply steals the show. Her true to the soul performance quickly grabs attention and she emerges as the central character of the film. While Konkona's slow deterioration and gradual development of her decease is brilliantly showcased, it is Shabana and her struggles that take center stage. One very important question the film asked was, "What happens when dreams become a reality?" Konkona's disappearance is both metaphorical and real.

Three cheers to the Sen clan!
