From past two days, my poor Lilliputian TV is resting a bit as I have decided to spare it for some time. But in between, I was able to find something interesting in Rituparno Ghosh's list of films. I was going through the list of films he has directed and decided to watch any one of them on Internet yesterday. Luckily, I found one of the highly acclaimed movie Unishey April.
Unishey April depicts the relationship between mother and daughter. A well renowned dancer starts to feel her life's void when her daughter starts deprecated attitude towards her. The relationship gradually starts to suffocate until the daughter decides to end her life to ease the situation. But, the fate plays completely surprising role with her life.
She plans to commit suicide using pills which she manages to get it from her custodian. She convinces all of their maids to go home on that night. Her mother leaves to Madras to receive her National award for dancing. The stage gets so perfect for her to commit suicide and she also finishes her last letter of her life.
At the right time, weather becomes so terribly bad and one of her mother's student dancer knocks the door to pay thanks to her mother. Miraculously , because of bad weather the flight supposed to leave to Madras gets cancelled and her mother comes home in the midnight drenched. The lone conversation between mother and daughter at this point of time exposes all of their feelings and their side of story, which they never shared between each other before. The conversation also helps both of them to understand each other and finally a flower of friendliness blossoms.
