Begam jaan is story about a border between the two nations. Its a hindi version, Director Srijit Mukerjee make it first bengali Version .Begam Jaan story situated Haldibari district and Bidya Balan(Begam jaan) is the boss and 11 woman work under her. .Begam jaan is the story of one such woman, when she refuses to quit her home .The film is about the battle.Performance is superb as Begam jaan(Bidya Balan) and Gohar khan also .Nasiruddin shah as it is Played his role. Especially Chunky Pandey, no words to say about him .I think its a best performance in his life. Music by Anu Malik Khayyam is not so bad .Music is good .Cinematography by Gopi Bhagat. But Finally say about this movie be honestly, story is good everybody has acted well but tecnically Direction is bad so I have to say its a worst movie and so people is not happy with Begam jaan. Bengali version is better rather than hindi version may be its lacking to Director.So waste of time.
