the namesake (2006)



the namesake is a light story well told. It absorbs you into the life of the ganguli family as it is lived, from the start to a the beginning of the end. there are the moments, good and bad that touch upon you...a sensitive film, well made.

Special mention of Irfan khan and Tabu for their convincing performance

Also by the director, Mira Nair : monsoon wedding (2001) and do watch out for Shantaram when it hits the screens next year

i wanna experiment with 11'09''01 - September 11 (2002)

Concept 7/10
Performance 8.3/10
Screenplay 7.8/10
Technical 8/10

Overall 7.8/10
