Poramon 2 (2018)
A tribute to Salman Shah and a nice work
Salman Shah, the late actor, was and still is a fashion icon in Bangladesh. 1990s generation adopts his fashion and style nowadays. However, this movie 'Poramon 2' shows this aspects in the first part of the movie through the protagonist who took the last name of the late actor as Sujan 'Shah'. The craze and popularity of Salman Shah is presented as the villagers are shown to stop their works while Sujan performs Salman Shah in every weekend.
All the villagers loved the show of Sujan as well as Pori, who loves Sujan from her childhood. But Sujan does not like her, eventually hates her because of an incident from childhood. Meanwhile, Sujan learns the truth of that past and fell in love with her. Sujan starts working hard to settle a life with Pori but her father and brother impede at this that changes the environment of the show.
The movie is inspired or key plot has been taken from Tamil-language movie 'paruthiveeran'. But the newcomer Raihan Rafi made this in his way and in Bangladeshi context. He showed his mastery in making. But several unnecessary scene should be deleted, such as the peeing scene of Bapparaz; as this scene importunate the tragedy of suicide of Jasmine. The length of the first show from 'Keyamat Thekey Keyamat' can be reduced.
Siam Ahmed as Sujan Shah was amazing, though this was his debut movie. As a fan of Salman Shah, he started his film career as a tragic hero. Puja Cherry was also praiseworthy. Her acting, dance and dialogue delivery tells how competent she is. From other supporting characters, Saeed Babu and Fazlur Rahman Babu played their role well, but Bapparaz was disappointing.
Cinematography of Saiful Shaheen shows several drone shot, extreme wide view that was eye-soothing. He took the scene of suicide of Jasmine, huffy separation scene of Sujan and Pori on the bridge, some beautiful picture of the village in a great way. Background music of Raj Narayan Babu and songs pleased the audience.
Overall, this one may not be a great one, but still it shows some beauty of filmmaking and nice work from the cast. Raihan Rafi should keep it up for his later ventures.
