Pataakha is the story of sisters who love to hate each other.
This isn't your average sibling rivalry; this is passionate and spiteful hatred for your kin.
The sisters literally want to strangle and choke the life out of each other. This strange sibling relationship forms the crux of Vishal Bhardwaj's film, where the Rajasthani language and the rustic setting present a side of Rajasthan that you haven't seen before.
Vishal Bhardwaj, as he always does with his films, has tried to put many quirky spins into this comedy.
The music is rustic, but very pleasing. He has also provided an interesting background score. During the second half, as the film briefly explores a psychological reason for the sisters' tendency to fight, the sci-fi sounding background music adds a delightful touch to the proceedings. But for all its wonderful and creative touches,
Pataakha still feels like a story that stretches a short concept, for a little too long.
