6/10
It is a one time watch for its unusual form.
25 July 2019
I was intrigued to watch this film when i Saw its trailer. But somehow I couldn't watch it in the theaters and saw it on home video after almost an year of its release.

This is surely a movie one can not overlook. The novelty of its treatment forces everyone to take a note of it. The style and treatment of the story is just fabulous., It is first time seen in any Hindi film.

I enjoyed it initially but after half an hour I was bored of it as the story was not moving forward. I feel that this film is almost an hour longer than it's natural length. Due to this, One feels cheated and utterly unsatisfied at the end of the movie.

In Hollywood, this type of stylized storytelling is forte of Quentin Tarantino. But in Tarantino's film the style is supported by solid writing which is unfortunately not the case here.

Due to over emphasis on the style, nowhere we could empathize with the characters. This made the film emotionally dry. Instead of the protagonist Surya and Supri, we felt more connected with Surya's dad and grandfather. Mahesh Manjrekar stands out in the entire cast followed by Gulsha Devaiah. They are prolific actors and here they are supported by writing. But this is not the case with the main lead.

Technically the film is excellent. The only disappointment is writing and hence editing.

People tend to exclaim when they see something unusual for the first time. Perhaps that is the reason for this film getting so high rating from others.
