If only the synergy between the images and the text had been more dynamic and alive. Having said that, Chander Pahar remains, notwithstanding its flaws, a superb film with some memorable moments.
The climax, despite the heroics of the protagonist and a vastly improved Dev, fails to end the film on the proverbial high. The editing of the material, especially its concision, has been done with care, thought and expertise. And this is where Chander Pahar falters as it fails to better the experience of the first half. Like Bandopadhyay’s plot, the storyboard of the graphic novel remains gripping, with its quick change of scenes and evolving action.

His heart is full of wanderlust and he wants to venture into the wilds of Africa. Chander Pahar is the story of a young Bengali mans adventures in Africa from 1909-1910.Shankar Ray Choudhuri is a 20-year-old man, recently completed his First Arts graduation and about to take up a job in a jute mill, a prospect he absolutely loathes. But Shankar, a feisty athlete with the spirit of an adventurer, despairs at the thought of settling into a dreary job at the local jute mill. Just out of college, he is expected by his family-an affectionate mother and ailing father-to get employed and take on more responsibilities. In Moon Mountain, the protagonist, Shankar, is a middle-class Bengali boy living in a village in 1909, five years before the Great War, and at a crossroad. This immersion in flora and fauna at the expense of human beings makes him such a uniquely modernist mind-a writer working in the early years of the 20th century, under the long shadow of a literary tradition cast by Rabindranath Tagore and the luminaries of the previous century, and yet, also original enough to strike out on his own using material that few novelists would consider worthy of their craft. Although structurally rambling, these works remain riveting for their intense focus on non-human characters: The jungle itself is a living, breathing, menacing and caring presence in Bandopadhyay’s imagination.
