The kind that will keep the viewers engaged depending on their age, levels of patience and interest in easy-going mystery thriller. A moody Kolkata is the perfect setting for this crime thriller, whose three strong characters tidy upa bit too neatly at the end. Ribhu Dassgupta’s Te3n, based on the 2013 South Korean film Montage is slow and relaxed instead of a quick-paced, edge-of-the-seat thriller. As a viewer, I like coming out of a mystery with questions on my mind rather than neat resolutions of all the loose ends. The pace of Te3n also derives from the world it inhabits: the moody Kolkata of Kahaani, of the Durga visarjan, and the haggling over fish prices.
