His motives are centered on becoming a hero for his little bedridden daughter whose only source of happiness is the stories of films her father narrates to her. The second story heavily based on Satyajit Ray’s Patol Babu Filmstar is an emotional film where a man from a theatrical background, questions his caliber and aspirations. The story which follows henceforth is heart breaking-ly spectacular. Despite the glitches, the ensemble film is indeed a must watch for Karan Johar’s powerful story, Dibakar Banerjee’s minute detailing, Zoya Akhtar’s technical prowess and Anurag Kashyap’s splendid script with special emphasis on phenomenal performances from Rani Mukerji and Nawazuddin Siddiqui.Ī sexually repressed wife and her successful husband’s subtle marital discordance is exposed in the open when a young homosexual boy, befriends the lady at work.
While these gently framed short films are individually the few most unbeatable concepts of recent times, the film’s major pitfall is that the stories have no thematic link or relevance to the overall rationale. Watch or Not?: Bombay Talkies in each of its story is indeed magnum opus. Celebrating the centenary year of Indian cinema, the link and relevance to the larger picture is hard to decipher. What’s Bad: The film despite being independent works of sheer geniuses suffers from one major flaw. What’s Good: The overwhelming romanticism of cinema and its stars that majorly weighs heavy all through the film. Star cast: Randeep Hooda, Rani Mukerji, Saqib Saleem, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Naman Jain, Ranveer Shoreyĭirector: Anurag Kashyap, Karan Johar, Zoya Akhtar, Dibakar Banerjee
