There have been numerous movies made on the theme of a younger woman becoming infatuated with an older man. In that sense, Ek Je Aachhe Konya isnt too different. Subrata Sen does a good job of directing and writing. He did his research well and tells his story in the modern city.Rupa, Anjan and Ria are people of modern Calcutta. They are sophisticated and smart. Anjan and Rupa work together respectively as creative head and photographer for an ad agency. While young Ria happens to be the granddaughter of new tenant Anjans landlord. From the moment Ria sets eyes on Anjan, she develops an instant attraction and a strong liking. Though Anjan is slightly aware of this, he brushes it off as harmless. However, things start to go wrong when Rupa enters her picture.Debashree Roy does a decent job as Rupa. The actress has been working for years, hence she plays her part with ease. Sabyasachi Chakravarthy is alright. Finally Konkona Sen Sharma steals the show with her portrayal of the stubborn, obsessive and unexpectedly dangerous Ria. She is simply excellent and keeps surprising with her versatility.Thanks to Sens writing, no time is wasted on unnecessary subplots as the focus is on the three protagonists. However, Ek Je Aachhe Konya bears a striking resemblance to The Crush 1993 that starred Alicia Silverstone. The film may not be a ripoff but some people find similarities between the two moviesweaselwords . The songs are beautifulaccording to whom? . For Konkona fans, Ek Je Aachhe Konya is not to be missed because youll see her in a completely different shade.
