The story and acting are undoubtedly the main assets of this movie. Scenes where the makers portray the clash between the father and the son are absolute tearjerkers. Anyone who watches the film will be fascinated by the drama and intrigue in the plot.
Tariq Anam Khan is brilliant in the role of the father. The character cannot be imagined without the grace and grit he brings to the screen. I was so in awe of his performance, my eyes were glued to the screen. It is a matter of pride that we have an actor like him in our country.
Siam Ahmed steals the show with a seamless performance, expressing the love and anger a son can feel towards his father.
In her debut feature film role, Nova Firoze does an amazing job as the daughter-in-law. In particular, her expressions during a crucial scene where she acts alongside Tariq Anam Khan, will be etched in the viewers' minds long after the movie is over.
Despite having a relatively smaller part to play, Sanjida Preeti delivers a beautiful performance; the same goes for Masudul Amin Rintu and Milon Bhattacharyya.
The film is directed by Roni Bhowmik with dialogues and screenplay by Raihan Khan. It does not feel like this is Bhowmik's first feature film, as every aspect is handled so professionally. All in all, "Mridha Bonam Mridha" will win over audiences who want to watch a heart-touching family drama on the big screen.
