Description: “Reunion,” a 2018 Bengali film directed by Murari Mohan Rakshit, is notable for being the first Bengali movie screened in the United Arab Emirates. The story revolves around four university friends—Arko, Abhi, Joyita, and Shuvo—who reunite after two decades, rekindling memories from their younger days in the 1990s. Their journey through friendship, romance, and campus politics is narrated to Romita, who serves as the audience’s perspective, revealing suppressed emotions and crises.
The plot deepens as they recall their college senior, Rudra (portrayed by Parambrata Chatterjee), and his crush, Monideepa (played by Raima Sen), which brings unresolved love to light. During a trip to Kolkata, the group unexpectedly encounters their mentor, who has been missing for 20 years and now dedicates his life to helping the underprivileged, living modestly. This reunion triggers their quest to address long-standing questions that have haunted them for decades.
The film masterfully intertwines nostalgia with the characters’ exploration of their past, creating a poignant narrative about friendship, love, and self-discovery.
