Reviews

Kakababur Protyaborton has received mixed reactions from critics and audiences alike. On IMDb, it holds a modest rating of 4.2 out of 10, reflecting a generally lukewarm response. Critics have praised Prosenjit Chatterjee's performance, often describing it as the highlight that anchors the film. The Times of India acknowledged the film's attempt to revive a beloved literary character, stating, "Prosenjit’s portrayal brings a nostalgic charm, though the narrative occasionally falters in pacing." However, several reviewers pointed out the screenplay as lacking depth and the storyline as predictable, which diminishes the overall thrill expected from an adventure mystery. Some fans of the original Kakababu series expressed disappointment over the adaptation’s deviation from the source material's complexity. On the positive side, the cinematography and music score have been commended for effectively creating the suspenseful atmosphere. Overall, while the film offers moments of excitement and appeals to hardcore Kakababu fans, it struggles to engage a wider audience due to its conventional plot and uneven execution.
