2.0.5 In contrast to Kahaani where Sujoy Ghosh had directed, written the story & screenplay and produced the film here there are several different people to do these all functions.

2.0.4 The movie lacks the drama, mystery, and a nail-biting end as was expected from a Sujoy Ghosh film.2.0.3 Kolkata city hasn’t been utilized much in the film to add to the mystery, only cliched Kali Puja is shown in a scene or two.2.0.2 The story narration was laid back, and jumbled up which though would be acceptable in a novel but certainly not in a film.Any other actor or even a supporting actor could have been roped in their places. 2.0.1 The film lacked in role development of Vidya Balan & Sabyasachi Chakrabarty’s characters in the film.1.0.5 The film has a certain old school charm but yet manages to en-captivate the audience.1.0.3 Two chase sequences in the film on the railway station is shot well.1.0.2 The songs and the music are subtle & full of grief in the genre but will make you notice and like them especially the song ‘Kyun re’ sung by Amitabh Bachchan is really good.It seems that the role had been written for him only and no other actor could step in his shoes and do in such ingenuity. He has delivered yet another stupendous performance in his role of ‘John Biswas’ in this film. But his recent few films have drawn me to accept the genius behind this great legend. 1.0.1 Somehow I am not a very big fan of Amitabh Bachchan.

However, unlike Kahaani, ‘Te3n’ movie hasn’t been directed by Sujoy but by Ribhu Dasgupta.

0.0.2 The movie is the official Indian remake of a Korean movie, ‘Montage’, whose rights has by Sujoy Ghosh.

Alas, I haven’t managed to find one but coming back to ‘Te3n’ movie, the urge to see another power packed mysterious thriller film compelled me to rush and book a ticket for this film.

Kahaani movie had the perfect blend of drama, mystery, thrill and the plot that even today I cannot get over it and see each time it comes on TV just to find a loose end in the story. 0.0.1 Sujoy Ghosh, Vidya Balan, and Kolkata connection – these ‘Te3n’ led me and perhaps would lead most Indian audiences to believe that it is Kahani-2.
