'Aamar Boss' trailer starring Raakhee Gulzar tells heartwarming story of mother and son
The trailer of the upcoming Bengali film 'Aamar Boss' has been unveiled, and it promises a heartwarming yet thought-provoking cinematic journey. The film marks veteran actress Raakhee Gulzar's return to the silver screen after 22 years.
The film has been directed by Nandita Roy and Shiboprosad Mukherjee, and also stars the latter. The trailer presents a story of Shubhra Goswami (played by Raakhee Gulzar) and her son Animesh Goswami (played by Shiboprosad Mukherjee). It gives a glimpse of two stark sides of Animesh. At home, he is the devoted son who is gentle, caring, and attentive to his aging mother. He lovingly feeds her, dines with her, and shares precious moments that reflect a deep familial bond.
But at the workplace, a different Animesh emerges who is a hard-nosed, demanding boss who doesn't shy away from reprimanding employees or making tough decisions, even at the cost of their jobs.

Everything takes a dramatic turn when Shubhra Goswami decides to step into her son's office world. Her unexpected presence not only challenges the toxic dynamics of the corporate environment but also brings about an emotional and societal transformation.
Raakhee Gulzar said, "Some stories do more than just entertain - they leave a lasting impression. Aamar Boss is one of those rare stories: sincere, heartfelt, and profoundly touching".
For Nandita Roy, working with Raakhee was an incredible experience. She called the veteran actress a thorough professional on set, as she was focused, graceful, and completely immersed in her role.
Nandita said, "Watching her bring Shubhra Goswami to life was truly moving. 'Aamar Boss' is a story for everyone, across ages and backgrounds. It speaks to the heart, explores the complexities of relationships, and challenges the way we view age, work, and care. We've made this film with a lot of love, and we hope it connects deeply with audiences".
Shiboprosad Mukherjee said, "'Aamar Boss' is more than just a film, it's a conversation about the balance we struggle to maintain between our personal and professional lives. Working with Raakhee di has been an absolute honour. Her presence on set, her energy, and the depth she brings to the character of Shubhra Goswami made every scene magical".
'Aamar Boss' delves into generational gaps, familial bonds, and the humanity often lost in the corporate grind. The film is poised to be one of the most talked-about releases of the year.

Are Character Actors Disappearing from Tamil Cinema?
Manorama in the 1990 film 'Nadigan'. Pic credit: Stills Gnanam Thirty-five years after the hit film's release, Khusbhu, who was hailed the star of P Vasu's 'Nadigan', still believes Manorama was the real hero. 'As the strict aunt, she had the audience eating out of her hand. She outshined the rest of us on screen.' That was the time, says Khushbu, when Tamil cinema was defined not just by its stars, but by its unforgettable character actors, a glaring void in present-day scripts. In the 1960s it was S V Ranga Rao, V S Raghavan, S V Subbaiah and T S Balaiah who were remembered for their memorable roles as father, father-in-law and sometimes playing characters for period films.

Scripts were tailor-made to showcase their talent and they approached roles with precision, which made their innings longer across industries. In today's films, there's a hero who occupies most of the screen space, a blood-thirsty villain, and a heroine who is often reduced to nothing more than eye candy. Although actors such as Saranya Ponvanan, Urvashi and M S Bhaskar have managed to get screen space, their potential remains untapped.

Travelling with the script throughout is a challenge, says film critic Balu. 'Malayalam director I V Sasi had a huge cast in his films. Now, films have a limited cast and space has shrunk for character roles,' he says. 'Until a couple of decades ago, Rajinikanth and Kamal Haasan would recommend involving veterans such as Nagesh, Ravichandran and Pandari Bai. But that was just a phase. Today's filmmakers work with barely six characters as movie making is a costly affair with inflated salaries,' says Balu. In between intense or violent scenes, it was the character actors that provided humour, relief or reassurance to the audience that all was well. 'Now, weapons have replaced people,' says filmmaker Chitra Lakshmanan. 'When was the last time one noticed who played the parents? Only recently, films such as 'Tourist Family' and 'Thalaivan Thalaivii', both of which released this year, and 'Once More' (in the pipeline) have given importance to character roles. 'When we watch a movie, we should be able to carry good memories. If we want the industry to grow, our movies need to touch the soul,' says Chitra Lakshmanan. But some in the industry don't agree that supporting roles are fading. 'Character actors such as Thambi Ramaiah, Kali Venkat, Munishkanth, Mottai Rajendran and Anand Raj are busy doing films,' says producer G Dhananjayan. 'The audience is spoiled for choice. As for actresses, Simran, Devadarshini, Deepa Shankar, Sriranjani and Vinodhini Vaidynathan have made a world of difference in terms of taking the storyline forward and making films feel complete.' Sarath Kumar's 'Por Thozil' (2023) got him well-deserved recognition, says Dhananjayan. 'He is not the hero in '3 BHK' (2025) either but his screen presence left an impact. Sathyaraj and Radhikaa too are taking up projects that give them character roles.' He believes that versatile actors attract directors. 'Decades ago, Simran was one of the top actors. In 'Tourist Family', it was her role as a mother that stood out. Directors today are looking for character artists. But in the end, faces in posters are what attract audiences. Our biggest issue now is getting people to step out of their homes and watch movies in theatres,' says Dhananjayan. Film critic Vamanan says the answer lies in emotion-based content. 'Family-based scripts are passe. Crime-based content dominates. There's no time to build on a person's character and emotions. This generation has no time. Sensationalising violence has taken prominence because it gives instant gratification.' When Manorama changed the formula When her days of being a comedy queen started to diminish in the late 1980s, Manorama transformed her image to play a mother, mother-in-law, sister-in-law, aunt and grandmother. Director K Balanchander gave her a unique and difficult task in 'Unnal Mudiyum Thambi Angayarkanni' (1988) where she played Kamal Haasan's sister-in-law. It is said the director asked her not to be Manorama, emphasising that 'not a shred of her old formula acting' should peep into her role as Angaryarkanni, who had to pacify a judgmental father-in-law (Bilahari Marthandam Pillai) played by Gemini Ganesan against Kamal as (Udhayamoorthi) for his playful attitude Email your feedback with name and address to
