If you think this is a copy of KGF or Animal then you are quite wrong. The story is familiar but the plot is different. The first half is fairly good, but the second half after the arrival of Chanchal Chowdhury, the movie kicks into full gear and from that point the movie is 100 out of 100. Shakib Khan's acting has matured enough, dialogue delivery needs more work. Chanchal is the best part of the whole movie. The acting of the rest of them was top notch The movie's post-credit scene was transformed into a full-fledged stadium. The best aspect of the movie is that in mafia movies, the character of the mafia shows a good side where the audience has an emotional soft corner, but here it is all negative, even as a viewer, you will think that the hero is the main villain. A movie worth watching in the hall.

"Toofan" presents a promising plot for Bangladeshi cinema. Megastar Shakib Khan, along with Mimi (from Kolkata) and Nabila, have given their best efforts under the direction of Raihan Rafi. While the first half is average, the second half is quite thrilling and maintains a fast pace.

As a director, Raihan Rafi has certainly put in his best effort. However, when compared to global cinema, the plot lacks the 'wow' factor. "Toofan" weaves a story of twists, crime, and political violence. Unfortunately, Shakib Khan tends to overact when a more restrained performance would suffice. In contrast, actors like Salauddin Lavlu, Misha Sawdagor, Gazi Rakayet, Shahiduzzaman Selim, and Chanchal Chowdhury are known for their natural and method acting in Bangladesh. Despite involving many talented actors, Raihan Rafi did not manage to showcase everyone's skills to their fullest.

From a technical standpoint, some of the background music seems to be copied or inspired by recently released Hindi movies. The film features only two original songs. Additionally, the storyline has several loopholes.

On a positive note, the camera work and cinematography are commendable, thanks to Tahsin Rahman's efforts.

Overall, "Toofan" is a decent effort and a good start for Bangladeshi cinema. It's a commercial film that you can enjoy with family and friends in the theatre. While the execution could have been better, my overall rating for the film is 6 out of 10.

"Toofan" breaks the Shakib Khan mold with a captivating action-thriller that will leave you on the edge of your seat. Raihan Rafi's directorial magic shines through in this unique and engaging storyline set in the 90s.

The movie is a far cry from typical love stories, delving into complex themes that require a keen eye to follow. Witty dialogues and well-developed characters further enhance the experience. While the beginning may leave you intrigued about the movie's direction, the storyline gradually unfolds, transporting you to the 90s era with world-class cinematography.

A particular standout is the breathtaking scene where Toofan rescues his foster father, showcasing the movie's action-packed thrills. For those unfamiliar with Shakib Khan, this movie serves as a fantastic introduction to his talent, as he delivers a relatable and impressive performance. However, it's Mimi Chakraborty who steals the show with her mind-blowing acting skills, elevating her character to new heights.

The supporting cast, including Chanchal Chowdhury and Shahiduzzaman Selim, also deliver commendable performances, adding depth to the narrative. While some elements may seem familiar, the underlying story remains unique and fresh.

If you're craving an action-packed thriller, "Toofan" is an absolute must-watch. It's a testament to Shakib Khan's versatility and Raihan Rafi's directorial prowess, leaving a lasting impression on viewers.

First I must say this is a copy-mixture Bengali Cinema and Raihan Rafi is very talented director who makes well. If you do not watch Animal, KGF or Dunki (SRK) Movie's song "lutt putt gaya". You would think this is absolutely an newly unzipped cinema you have ever watched!

Omygoood!

Shakib Khan's milestone this is! Back to Back hit movie he has given us -Priyotoma & Toofan. This movie was enjoyable i must say. Shakib khan has broken him into pieces from his asusual acting skills. Its really impressive. If you even do not like Shakib's cinema , you should watch this movie at least. There were a time i did like his movies like- Jaan Amar Jaan, Priya Amar Priya, Ek Takar Bou, Kabin Naama et cetera. After that time i stopped watching his movie. He was fat and even i think he lost his acting skills. After when he changed his Movie Genre, he came back to Bengli's heart again. If you give him a proper awesome story he will make history again.

MImi Chakraborty? Why!

Don't we have Heroine in Bangladesh? Directors think if he casts indian heroine even if her acting skill is third class, cinema will be also hit in Kolkata or somewhere else in India. Its totally wrong and even indians have proved that they dont care about Bangladeshi Cinemas. So Stop Casting Indian Actor In Lead Role.

Thank You.

"This is the best Bengali movie I have ever seen. It has immense potential to break all past records. Director Raihan Rafi, superstar Shakib, Chanchal Chowdhury, and all the actors have delivered outstanding performances, rating 10/10. The director deserves thanks for presenting such a beautiful movie on such a low budget. I hope the golden days of Bengali cinema will return through this movie. The film's BGM, background music, cinematic view, along with the exceptional acting of the prominent actors, will offer Bengalis a new kind of wonder never seen before. Thanks to Raihan Rafi for gifting us such a movie.

If you want to lose your time and money go and watch movie. History is vary boring and unpractical. Certainly! Here's a negative review for a fictional Bangla movie:

I had high hopes for *toofan* but sadly, it turned out to be a colossal disappointment. From the poorly constructed plot to the lackluster performances, this movie failed to deliver on almost every front.

The storyline was clichéd and predictable, with no real depth or innovation. It felt like the writers were recycling old tropes rather than crafting something fresh and engaging. The pacing was painfully slow, making it a struggle to stay engaged throughout the film.

The acting was equally underwhelming. The lead actors seemed to sleepwalk through their roles, lacking any real passion or chemistry. Even the usually reliable supporting cast couldn't salvage the film, as they were given little to work with in terms of character development.

The direction and cinematography were subpar. There were glaring inconsistencies and technical flaws that made it clear the production was rushed. The editing was choppy, with abrupt scene transitions that disrupted the flow of the movie.

Moreover, the music, which is often a highlight in Bangla films, was forgettable and failed to enhance the narrative in any meaningful way.

Overall, *toofan* was a huge letdown. It's unfortunate that what could have been a captivating film was marred by such poor execution. I wouldn't recommend wasting your time or money on this one.

I saw Shakib Khan in a different way in this movie. He gave the best performance of his life in this movie. His dialogue delivery was amazing. Raihan Rafi has managed to use him very well. When you watch Tufan movie, every moment will pass through your time thrilling and intense.

But Mimi Chakraborty and Nabila didn't have much to do in the movie. Shakib Khan has done the movie alone. The acting of Misha Saudagar, Chanchal Chowdhury and Shahiduzzaman Selim as supporting cast was top class. Moreover Ghazi Rakayet and Salahuddin Lovelu are also used very well.

There are some unreleased songs from the movie, hope you like them.

"Toofan," starring Sakib Khan, is a movie that unfortunately misses the mark on multiple fronts. The storytelling is poorly executed, leaving viewers confused and disengaged. The trailer promises an engaging narrative, but the actual film delivers something entirely different, creating a sense of betrayal for those who anticipated a compelling story.

Sakib Khan's character, who could have been a layered and complex protagonist, instead comes across as a senselessly violent figure. The movie is filled with scenes where he kills people without any clear motivation or reason, making it difficult to connect with or understand his actions. This lack of depth in character development is a significant flaw that detracts from the overall experience.

The discrepancies between the trailer and the main movie are glaring. While the trailer hinted at an action-packed yet coherent storyline, the film itself is a chaotic mess, with scenes that seem to exist solely for shock value rather than to advance the plot. This bait-and-switch tactic is disappointing and leaves a sour taste for those who hoped for more from "Toofan." Ultimately, it's a film that squanders its potential and fails to deliver on its promises.

Shaun Ahamed Shakib Cumilla-3500 Bangladesh.♥♥♥

The dramatic art and its Celluloid portrayal both need great craftsmanship. Selling an idea is never easy. Those who can impress the audience should be credited. Measuring popular pulls and create accordingly are great qualities.

But the thin line that differentiates Melodrama and Creative Cinematic Vision should be maintained. Despite much hue and cry, newly released Bengali Thriller Toofan of Bangladesh doesn't seem to be Impressive. Watching the Movie was not worth at all. Such stereotypical approach what attracted cine-goers decades back can never be relevant when the concept of movie has already taken paradigm shift. Following the trend of Global Cinema, concept of film making has changed. The Movies and Web Series of Bangladesh are no exceptions. This is undeniable that Bangladesh has produced some brilliant films in recent years.

Dramatic art of Bangladesh has always been thought provoking. Those who watched dramas came as Serials in Bangladesh Television BTV decades back know it very well.

Considering all these the Movie Toofan has Disappointed. The main reason of boredom are the song sequences. Secondly, to create Thrill, Melodrama has been taken for granted. The plot fluctuating from one theme to the other has done the remaining damage. Really, it's too melodramatic that hardly impacts.

One of the best movie in Bengali Flim industry. Shakib khan Acting level is so incredible, when i Watch this movie, im fan in Shakib khan. Chanchal Chowdhury Acting just Silent & some Comedy Lineup, Mimi & Nabila just wow This movie 2 part Toofan 2 part are coming.

I hope THIS Movie continue hit globally, blockbuster Shakib acting ufff mind blowing im a fan of Shakib khan. Toofan create a New history in Bangla flim industry. Our country flim when i watched im totally shocked what a movie man. Thanks Raihan Rafi.

'Toofan' is a dynamic action film that manages to pack a punch while also delving into profound emotional and social issues. The movie maintains a relentless pace, weaving its narrative with impactful action sequences that are heightened by the presence of genuine emotion.

**Music and Score (8/10):* While the movie's songs may not be its strongest suit, the background music is stellar. It enhances crucial scenes, adding depth and intensity to the storytelling. The score elevates the overall quality of the film. But I missed singer Asif Akbar's golden voice!

**Balancing Action and Emotion (9/10): 'Toofan' finds the delicate equilibrium between high-octane action and heartfelt emotion. This unique blend not only entertains but also gives depth to the action sequences, making them more resonant with the audience. It's evident that the filmmakers aimed to create an action film with a heart, and they succeeded in doing so.

**Addressing Social and Political Issues (9/10):* The film takes a bold step by addressing pressing social and political concerns. What's notable is its impartial approach; "Toofan" isn't politically biased but instead scrutinizes the systemic flaws ingrained in our society. This choice ensures that its message remains universally relevant.

**Pacing and Emotional Depth (7/10):** While the movie's fast tempo adds to its excitement, it occasionally hampers the emotional depth of certain scenes. Slowing down at times could have allowed for more profound exploration of the characters' feelings and experiences. Nonetheless, the film manages to forge a connection between the audience and its characters.

**Cinematic Brilliance (9/10):* Visually, 'Toofan' is a work of art. The cinematography is nothing short of exceptional, immersing viewers in a visually captivating world. The film's stunning visuals contribute significantly to its overall allure, making it a cinematic treat.

While pacing issues may hinder emotional connections at times, the film's cinematic brilliance, strong performances, and impactful background score make it a must-watch. "Toofan' not only entertains but also provokes thought on the systemic issues it confronts, making it a compelling addition to the action genre.

The New era of Bangladeshi Cinema has begun. A pure master class and the best direction by Raihan Rafi as he poured out the best performance till date from Mega Star Shakib Khan. BGM, CGR, Editing, Casting, songs, dialogue etc. Every single thing about this movie is almost perfect. Multicasting of several legendary actors from Bengali film industry worked really well as it attracts both mass and class people at the same time. Raihan Rafi proved once again that he is the best Bangladeshi movie director of modern era and also proved that Mega Star Shakib Khan is a director's artist and proper utilization and presentation will make him almost invincible and he is no less then any Bollywood or South actors. In my opinion Mega Star Shakib Khan is a perfect combination of Three biggest Khans in Bollywood (Shahrukh, Amir and Salman) My personal rating for Toofan is 8.5 but just to encourage multicasting and high budget fimls which is very rare in Bangladesh I'm giving full Marks. Thank you.

No Spoiler.

Toofan Aka Galib Bin Goni is a born killer, and chapter one just has build up this monster, chapter 2 is going to blast more terrifiedly.

Shakib khan performed two character that is 180 degree opposite to one another. Even though, Shakib has blown our mind with living performance.

As per furiousness or Alpha male character, Toofan is one of the top character and can stand alongside others alpha male character of the world's reel character. Without Shakib,none of two bangla could portray this role.

About box office, it's gonna industry hit. The craze of Toofan proved once more why Shakib khan is the Megastar of Bangla cinema,Why He is the Number One.

Last but not the least, Shakib Khan looks so dashing, so handsome that He has been turned into Handsome Icon.

Really this is awesome action movie for bd flim industry.. What a acting by Megastar SK(Shakib Khan)..outstanding..Maybe this movie will be record break all bd flim before record.. This movie will be history for bd flim industry.. Thanks to Raihan Rafi use Megastar Shakib Khan properly.. This is New SK create by Raihan Rafi..this movie will be milestone for all Bangladeshi movie..it's come dream to by Raihan Rafi & Shakib Khan..it is going to Start journey SK for introduce to bd flim industry Globally.....go ahead.. Best luck for Toofan...we will be waiting for Toofan part two very soon as possible... And best of luck Bangladesh flim industry.

Acting 0 Story 0 Action 5 The only thing good about this movie is Chanchal Chaudhury's acting. If you are excited about watching this movie, do not be. The film maker simply tried to make a mixture of KGF and Animal. The result is a total disaster. Super predictably story. Total waste of time and money. By the end you will actually find the film funny. Please do not waste your precious money watching this 2 hours 15 minutes of utter trash. Watch a cartoon instead. One has to be extremely untalented to make such a movie. The songs are also extremely boring. In the end I would say, this movie is a big zero.

This film is clearly inspiring in terms of cinematography but lacking originals. Scenes are inspired from a couple of bollywood films which were annoying. Script writing was good with interesting punch lines. Shakib Khan's dual role performance was both good and bad. As Toofan, he was really good but as Shanto, he is typical with overacting and unnecessary comedy expressions. The connection audiences should feel with Shanto was too shallow and somewhat missing. Chanchal Chowdhury as Akram was on spot. The minute he entered changed the film and moved to a upper level. Director Raihan Rafi has great potential and hope to see great works from him in the future.
