Corruption and Satyajit's view

A must watch.The negative point ajit (father) and Haradhan banerjee's(son) age .... they are looking like 2 brothers. A good story but it's a bit slow. It's not a masterpiece by Mister Ray. So Don't expect it's as good as Pather Panchali. But it's not bad as Satrang ke Khiladi
