There is no doubt that Jisshu Sengupta is one of the finest actors of this time.

Jisshu portrayed every emotion of the multilayered character with absolute precession.   

Shiboprosad Mukherjee was a rage in Haami with his portrayal of a hilarious Laltu Biswas, the rich but dimwit father of Bhutu. He was completely effortless. With his every word and expression, he made everyone laugh out loud. His interactions with his son Bhutu were funny and adorable at the same time.

Abir Chatterjee retrieves his role as Satyanweshi one more time in Arindam Sil’s Byomkesh Gowtro. Based on Sharadindu Bandyopadhyay’s Rakter Daag, the movie saw him in the role of a much composed and matured avatar this time who witnessed more than getting into an action sequence.

Among Tollywood’s most dependable actors, Anjan Dutta is the most loved one. In Srijit’s Uma, we saw him as Bramhananda, a failed and uncouth filmmaker with a heart of gold.
