4.6/5

The Film is based on the Greatest Festival of Bengal, Durga Festival, first time in Red Light area, through the eyes of a Narrator who discovered Jitu ( a kid in red light area) and his best friend Niraj, they hardly know about their childhood identity and they are deprived from their family's tender love and care. How do they feel about the mother archetype through the iconic idol of eternal motherhood? Now their journey began with the Narrator during the puja days. The film has been depicted also the overall appreciation and delightful moments on the glittering occasion: The film covered the various events of each day like On Ashtami, the second day of the pujas, the residents would offer 'anjali' to Durga, a privilege almost none of the sex workers received earlier. 'Prasad' would also be distributed to all sex workers in the area. The film captured their glittering faces, gloomy on other days but glorious now with touch of motherhood and finally Jitu the main protagonist found out the never forgotten days which are common for any child except the children of his locality at least for four days.
