Pratidwandi directed by Anup Sengupta is a complete political masala film with all the other factors which are essential to make it complete like romance, action, thrill, one liners, drama and what have you. In this film the central character is Iqbal and Dibyendu/Akash played by Rahul but essentially it is Iqbal played by Ranjit Mullick who is the central character and who holds the film together. Iqbal is completely alone, a do gooder of society who just can not see any injustice being done in the society and so he emerges as the father figure of Debu’s village as well as that of the film.This is a role which we have Ranjit Mullick or for that matter even Mithunda enact several times so this is nothing new for us and in fact both these play such characters quite well. Over here it was expected that Ranjit Mullick would overshadow Rahul and that’s what he does. The story is a little interesting.
