Professor Shanku O El Dorado is a Bengali language science fiction adventure movie that hit the theatres on 20 December 2019. Directed by Sandip Ray, the film stars Raneth Tomas Barbosa as the titular character Professor Shanku, Ashoke Barman as the villainous scientist Dr. Nambisan, and Sadhan Bhattacharya as the intelligent and loyal housekeeper Prahlad that helps Professor Shanku.

The movie is based on two popular stories from the popular Bengali science fiction writer Satyajit Ray - "Nakur Babu O El Dorado" and "Maganlal Meghraj". Professor Shanku is a genius scientist who has invented a Time Travel Device, which can take its user backward and forward in time. Professor Shanku is anxious to test his time machine but is stopped by his housekeeper Prahlad as it might not be a safe option.

Meanwhile, a group of people is conspiring against Professor Shanku and want to steal his invention. One of the members of the group is Dr. Nambisan, who wants the Time Travel Device to snatch the treasures of El Dorado, the mythical city of gold hidden in the jungles of South America. However, things take a drastic turn when Professor Shanku himself travels back in time to the era of El Dorado after a series of incidents. Now the film follows how Shanku uses his intelligence, knowledge, and his only ally, Prahlad, to escape the clutches of Dr. Nambisan and find his way back to the future.

The movie is filled with action-packed sequences, mind-boggling science, and breathtaking visual effects, which will take the audience on an exciting adventure. The director has skilfully captured the stunning visuals of South America and has also kept the storyline of the film intriguing till the end. The music also adds to the overall experience of the movie, with its soulful melodies and dynamic pace.

Raneth Tomas Barbosa delivers a fine performance as the eccentric Professor Shanku, who is often lost in his own world of science and inventions but realizes the value of his friends and allies in times of trouble. Ashoke Barman as Dr. Nambisan is a perfect foil for Professor Shanku and plays the role of an evil scientist with ease. Sadhan Bhattacharya as Prahlad impresses with his wit and intelligence when it comes to saving the day for Professor Shanku. The supporting cast members also do their part and deliver decent performances.

Overall, Professor Shanku O El Dorado is a must-watch for all science fiction lovers, especially fans of Satyajit Ray's works. The film is packed with adventure, emotion, and action, which will keep the audience engaged throughout its runtime. The packaging of science fiction and adventure is handled with care, making the whole experience entertaining and enjoyable.
