Himu wants to be; There were many such youths in Bangladesh at one time. Now, of course, the tide has turned. Once Humayun Ahmed sat at the Calcutta Book Fair. A young man came and bowed to Humayun Ahmed, touched his feet and saluted him, saying- I am Himu. Humayun said- Himu walks barefoot, I see your feet. The young man showed his legs, his legs were also empty.
In 2015, Martin Prokott made the Malayalam film "Charlie". After surfing the internet, I came to know that Charlie had won awards in 6 categories at the 46th Kerala State Film Awards. Starring Dulquer Salman, Parvati Tirubot, Aparna Gopinath and Nedumudi Benu.
Charlie (Dulquer Salman) is a wandering young man. She always likes to do strange and mysterious things. Indifferent to himself, this young man tries to solve other people's problems by thinking of himself.
People who choose the path of suicide without being able to reconcile the accounts of life show the dream of survival. Charlie is not only a character, but he also plays a pivotal role in human life. Whose touch changes everyone's life. Whether he is a thief, a robber or a murderer.
Meanwhile, Tessa (Parvati Tirubot) is a traveling, independent-minded girl, whom she wants to marry and runs away and rents a house in a town in Kerala. This is the house where Charlie, the strange mysterious vagabond who identified himself as Zvin, lived.
Tessa finds an incomplete sketchbook while cleaning that messy Charlie's house. The sketchbook that Charlie drew on last New Year's Eve is a strange story that happened in his life. But the last part of the story was incomplete. Tessa sets out in search of Charlie to find out the last part of that unfinished story.
Wants to meet that weird boy for once. But that goes with the wind, seen in one city in the morning in another city in the afternoon! Who has no specific address, no identity. How to meet him! Will Charlie and Tesser be seen at all?
After all, this story is not just about Charlie and Tesser. The story of a doctor who is emotionally broken by being cheated on by his boyfriend. The story of an unmarried old man who spent his whole life lost in adolescence or AIDS Maria who went to sea in the middle of the night. However, like a magician, Charlie appears in everyone's life story.
Great performance with dazzling cinematography, awesome background music. Which will make you fascinated.
While watching the movie Charlie, you will find many similarities between Himu and Charlie. But in this case, Himur Rupa and Charlie's Tessa are completely different. In the past, after reading Humayun Ahmed's Himu, many people wanted to be Himu. In my opinion, many people will want to be Charlie even after seeing Charlie.
Can't believe me?
