This film got more positive reviews on release and it gradually became a super hit movie of Bengali film industry in the year 2015. Thus Ebar shabor became the first movie and the first hit of 2015. This is a well crafted, beautifully told story, connecting each and every part in a logical way. It is a crime thriller in one sense as it reveals the secret of a murder, at the same time a socilal satire film, as it reveals the society and its dark side. It is a romantic film as it switches the relation of many romantically. The timely humour in the film gave it another status and a plus point to the film. The actors performed well and each one contributed his own part very well for its success. This is really the director's film and he succeded in maintaining the suspense till the last and thus making it a suspense thriller. I wish to conclude it by quoting a sentence from Times of India and it goes as follows : "Ebar Shabor is the Directors baby- right from the animated opening credits, the sopt-on camera work by DoP shirsha Ray, the unnervingly real chase sequences, the subtle interplay of sadness and homour to the rush of emotions in the last 10 minutes. It's a film that's as real as life itself. Watch it, watch it again. You will love it every time"..
