Bandish Bandits (2020)
A Must Watch
This show came highly recommended by a friend, so decided to give it a watch. We came away impressed, to put it mildly.
The creators get everything right - the story, the screenplay, the actors, the music, and the locations, all of it is bang on. As others have said, Naseeruuddin Shah delivers a superlative performance, his emotions are conveyed by his expressions, with very little being spoken. He potrays the role of the controlling patriarch to perfection. Ritwik's performance is worth calling out as well. Sheeba Chadda as the only woman in a house dominated by male egos delivers an understated yet beautiful performance.
The story has a feel good factor, you cant help but root for the underdog. Although the story is predictable, the fast pace keeps you hooked. The only inauthentic part was the sudden change of heart that Panditji has towards the end - the writers could have done a better job at showing Panditji's transformation.
Overall, a must watch.
Killa (2014)
Beautiful film
Beautiful potrayal of a young boy grappling with loneliness after his father's death. This is an understated film - it makes you think and read between the lines. Excellent performances by the actors portraying Chinmay Kale and Bandya.
Go watch this movie if you havent already.
Tie the Knot (2016)
Worst movie ever
Do NOT watch this movie - it's a mish mash of scenes that are randomly sown together. Wonder if any thought was put into the making of the movie. Bad script, bad direction, and even worse acting. The only saving grace is the lead actress who at least makes an attempt. Spend 90 minutes doing something else more worthwhile than watching this morning.
