In 1994 Shawshank Redemption got released and flopped. But over the years people realised what they have missed and soon it become a Cult Classic. Infact it is considered as one of the greatest movie ever made.
Same goes for this, atleast in my view. Oneday people will findout this hidden gem and it will be in the list of greatest Hindi movies ever made.Only difference between Shawshank Redemption and this is,former a feel good movie & you will get over but the latter one is a tragic one. It will haunt you.You will just be saying "kyaa dekh liyaa Bhaii"
Directed by Konkona Sen Sharma (Debut direction) who is herself an amazing and underrated actress with a starcast equally underrated as her.
VIKRANT MASSEY,JIM SARBH,KALKI COECHLIN,
RANVIR SHOREY,GULSAN DOVEIAH,OM PURI...
These actor's skills combined is far greater than rest of Bollywood combined...
Movie is mostly in English,a bit Hindi and Bengali.
May be the director wanted to make it an international movie or thhe story which is based around the town of MCCluskieGanj, Jharkhand which was once a chief Anglo Indian settlement,may be thats the reason.
Story's lead character Suttu (Vikrant Massey) is an young college student who has just lost his father, failed his exam thinks of spending some time wid her maternal family in a small town in Jharkhand. Emotionally disturbed, mother's expections, Sensitive nature, societal expections from him of becoming a man Whether he can successfully win Over this or not to know that watch this movie.
If i write anything further,it will be a spoiler.. Don't wanna ruin your watching experience.....
