  This is a very funny film from Satyajit Ray, poking fun at fake Gurus and people who get sucked in by them. The script is brilliant and the players are all on top form. Charuprakash Ghosh and Robi Ghosh steal the show though as the charlatans, especially in the last scene where they do a runner after one of their 'performances' goes wrong - Robi Ghosh runs out dressed as Shiva, complete with an extra pair of arms, laden with hand-bags - 'Your not so useless after all' Quips his boss Birinchi Baba. Brilliant film, definitely worth seeking out!
