Taranath Tantrik

He completely ruined the essence of the story in such way that if Taradas was alive he would kill himself before watching the destruction of his creation.

Don't fall for the 10 star rated reviews. This series ditchedd by Q appears to focus dplrly on making the shots arrtistu, symbolic, and surrealist, but in doing so, it fails to deliver the narrative to the viewers.

The various talke narrated by the Tantrik lack good screenplay thanks to over artistic durectyon. Wasted my 3 hours on this..

What a mess. Completely ruined such a masterpiece character. Its just over artistically placed bunch of pictures. No story telling at all. Tried watching one by one episodes in hope that the next one would be better- but no luck. What an awful series it is. Wish some other director picked these classic stories.

You guys just destroyed "The Classic" by adapting that to this kind of rubbish. Producers, Directors, and the Screenwriters like you make the people unwilling to watch adaptations. Why? Why did you guys have to make this adaptation? This is so miserable that it made me vomit! In another review it is said that you should go space as aliens. But, I think aliens won't even accept you as their piers. You guys are totally disguisting. The charecter design is not even close to the original literary piece. Why did you guys born and came to this world? To make these kind of nonsense? I wanted to subscribe to Hoichoi. But after watching this, I know that it will be a waste of time and money. If there was an option, I would have rate this adaptation negetive stars to infinity.

Anyone who has read the stories of Taranath Tantrik would hate to watch this series. If Q wants to mess up things through his forcefully and therefore meaninglessly different style of execution, he should look at stories that he has written himself. Not masterpieces by the likes of Bibhutibhushan Bandopadhyay.

Added to the unnecessary trippy presentation, we also have stilted acting. Not a single actor acted the way the story required them to. Kishori and the narrator were particularly bad. Taranath could have been someone from our own industry - bengali cinema does not have a dearth of accomplished seniors.

Chari's character is shown as if she's a mysterious woman of the night who sells drugs on the sly. God! As far removed from reality as could be.

And then there are the quick and abrupt scene changes and sharp music to instil fear and awe. None is instilled.

Don't watch this. Go read the book for a real trip.
