Noshtoneer (2023) S01

Aparna’s blissful world comes crashing Noshtoneer down when she discovers a slanderous allegation against her husband on social media. As she tries to piece things back together, a conflict ensues between the truth-seeking woman and the peace-keeping homemaker in her.

The film opens in a remote town-village called Sundarpur some distance away from Kolkata. The scene is set in an exotic environment with a restaurant with the intriguing name – “Rabindranath Ekhane Kokhono Khete Ashenni” stands, promising magical and exotic recipes drawing people from far and wide into its portals. The place is clearly removed from the realm of mundane, modern-day existence. The series is infused with elements of enchantment centred mainly on the mysterious owner of the restaurant, the young and beautiful Muskaan Zuberi (Azmeri Haque Bandhon) married into a zamindar family who cooks all the exotic dishes herself. She is also a melodious singer of Rabindra Sangeet and Srijit Mukherji, with his rich imagination, uses Tagore songs fitting into the mood of every episode, belted out by the beautiful Muskaan. Into this “parlour”, a stranger named Nirupam Noshtoneer Chanda (Rahul Bose) walks in, apparently to partake of the exotic dinner but really to investigate the mystery behind the missing of a MLA’s nephew who was last seen stepping into the restaurant and was never seen again.
