"AK vs AK" is ambitious & visionary to say the least. Starring two prominent personalities in Bollywood, Anil Kapoor & Anurag Kashyap.
And showcasing their feud reflecting on the heated debate of Insiders vs Outsiders in this industry.
From a Story perspective, what seems like an extended reality TV show; Vikramaditya Motwane as the director successfully manages to blend two distinctive nature of content creation. At one hand, you get the aesthetics of a film and on the other hand the usual touch of a typical TV drama! A contemporary & audacious approach; that undoubtedly deserve all the praises.
Barring few set of whimsical scenarios, that do unfortunately appears; the execution has been pretty fruitful nonetheless. To experience a veteran like Anil Kapoor relishing the opportunity to act infront of hundreds of people without any visible barriers inbetween; it gives an ample amount of joy. I have seen Anurag as an actor in less convenient roles before but not in the vicinity of what he showcases this time. I adore him for what he does behind the camera; that being said, he makes an impression from the front as well!
Technically it's well made yet not upto the usual standards we all expect from Mr. Motwane. The treatment here is less darker, less grittier & above all; it lacks in emotions. Although the concept itself is fascinating enough, but it would take a hefty amount of time & diligence to get much more refined iterations of the same!
