Why 5 stars? The film is like a lesson for our country. Because the primary subject matter of the film is the most alarming and significant problem in our country, where the truth is that most rapists are not getting rigorous punishment even after their crimes have already been proven. Yes, I am giving this film five stars just because it demands Capital Punishment for every rapist which I do support one hundred percent. In the beginning, I couldn't relate Yami Gautam as such a character so easily but her performance as the film continues was very much impressive and definitely convincing. Her eyes and smile played a great role in making Naina more lively. Kudos to the director who managed the whole film in a very systematic way with so many cast and crew who contributed equally to make the film very dashing and thrilling. The music is also very nice. Shots taken in the rain were definitely, the toughest, but conducted very professionally.

This is the first time I dragged scenes to come to an end of each episode. I wonder how the story has been approved by the producer and given the green signal to make a series on such an oldest topic. When Indian Webseries are getting stunningly improving this series ''Out of Love'' is genuinely like a disaster. The only pillar is Rasika Duggal. I know it is based on an English story but that doesn't mean it will be good. Season 2 is next. Anyway, the cinematography is definitely eye-catching. The direction is good. Maybe I am wrong and couldn't understand, but as a very layman, I am saying this.

I was not attracted to the first poster of Panchayat. So I am late in witnessing Season 1 but when I started I found myself one of the fools who missed such a wonderful series on the ott platform. Kudos and Salute to the maker who has really researched a lot to bring in front the real trouble in staying village yet so loving and simple to deal with the natives. It seems I am witnessing a live show of a village because the whole cast and crew have given their incredible performances along with so much directorial magic if we observe very carefully. Just finished Season 2 with a tearful eye and it's the ultimate touch Panchayat has left us in our minds forever. This is called a teamwork where all are genius in their respective fields. I was crying so much in the last episode as if I was there in the village Phullera with those people. The friendship bonding shown in the film is the most important aspect of the series. Thank God it's out of any controversy or wrong review because it happens with many films just after release destroying the ultimate hardship and hard work. Waiting for Season 3.

Definitely, this film deserves 5 stars because I consider this film as a Ray Film without imitating but following the footsteps of Maestro Ray and also Sen, sometime Ghose and sometimes many eminent directors' magic on screen. Stunningly directed and expressing every frame so unique, I am blaming myself for why I have been so late in witnessing such a great Bengali movie. The Child actor bold me and other veteran actors who are already so special in their own way of acting. But may I ask the director whether I am wrong in noticing when Sabyasachi Chakraborty was wrongly calling himself Sukumal Basu Roy and notifying Gyanesh Mitra played by Joy Sengupta. Is that as per script or wrongly spoken by the actor overlooked accidentally. First time I have seen such a mistake or maybe it is as per script. I need to know.

Three-stars for the film which has nothing positive but a weak storyline.Five stars for Hansal Mehta who has always shown his outstanding directorial efficacy in every film he directed. I wonder if the film would have been shot in India, then what impact the film would have left for us. Kudos and salute to Kangana Ranaut, whose performances have been always strongest in all her films are so different according to the roles she is offered. I wonder how she can manage all such roles in so many ways. Kangana can be the most glamourous model in Fashion, she can be the simplest Simran, she can be most beautiful and strong Manikarnika, she can be most rude and ferocious as in Krish, can take Panga, can be a bride when she weds Manu, can be full romantic in so many films. And there she is can make a character so lively with her strongest acting efficacy, expression, and screen presence.

From Waaris I am have seen almost 70 percent of the Kaushik Ganguly Films. He is one of the finest directors in our country. Most of his films gathered several accolades for his immense capability as a director and he has always given utmost importance to the subject matter of the film. So I couldn't find Kaushik Ganguly in this specific film because the film dealt with only one line of subject matter which has no new essence to think about. For the outstanding performance of Ritwik, Sudipta, Damini Basu the film is worthy to watch and I think the characters are not at all complicated which these actors cannot accomplish. So overall the film is good.

Vicky Donor, Madras Cafe, Gulabo Sitabo, Piku, October maker Shoojit Sircar proved his immense efficacy as the director but Sardar Udham, his latest film proved his ultimate efficacy as a director with a severe finest touch to make the film most authentic and very true. Sometimes in the middle, I was confused whether it is an Indian film or a Hollywood make. From the beginning till the end the film has been structured in such a way that it can hit straight to our hearts and compel us to feel the severe pain and struggle of our freedom fighters. I just wonder we Indians were so strongly bonded and united in those times that all the native citizens had the same wish and moto overlooking their personal gains or acceptance. We gained independence but lost those fighters, who were purest, dedicated, but not greedy. The way the Jallianwalla Bagh massacre depicted in the film will definitely remain a unique one in the history of the Indian Film Industry. From music to cinematography, from frame to frame this film is now our asset no matter it gets any award or not. Vicky Kaushal gave his best performance keeping his eyes so calm yet so restless with minimal dialogues. I cannot keep my writing small for the best one if witnessed with all my mind and soul. Kudos to the team Sardar Udham.

Breathe- We can do anything of our choice for the well-being of our nearest one. At least to save a life, we can take the lives of others. With this one-line motto, film breathe inspired us and compelled us to feel something abnormal. If every ill-fated parent starts doing such a thing for the sake of their child then there is no law and order in our country. The only positivity in the film is, everyone is trying their level best for the sake of their near and dear ones. But for this, the murder of organ donors for the purpose is absolutely illegal and illogical. This happens in films only. According to my opinion, a film must give ample stress on the subject matter, not on profit only. The film has got a very good point for its superb direction, acting efficacy of each actor. The child actor bold every one of us.

The film is good. Suraj Sharam and Iqbal Theba have given their brilliant performance. First I couldn't recognize Life of Pi Hero. Suraj is born talented. I thought the film is about the journey, struggle, hurdles of a young guy, who wanted to pursue his dream to become a successful film director. In the whole film, I didn't find any positivity and after so many negative things happened to the guy the film switched on to the next five years where we found the guy is still in the same cafe as a manager. What Babaji faced for long twenty years and couldn't manage to return back to India because his passport was seized by the owner why the film didn't portray the obstacles overcome by the Hero and fulfilled his dream. It could have been like this he is making a film about a guy who got trapped like him. We just found a script of his own stories at the end. Did he become successful?

4 Stories directed by 4 directors in their own way. But I must say I found a very good storyline in all four shorts with a remarkable and stunning twist at the end of every story. All the female leads have given their terrific performances but Konkona Sensharma, Nushrat Bharucha, and Shefali Shah deserve special mention. Manab Kaul again proved his efficacy and definitely the best among all-male leads. So far direction is concerned when we are getting some massive examples and superfine effects in Indian web series this film doesn't carry any directorial magic.
