Lakadbaggha

"Lakadbhagga" presents an interesting concept centering around a vigilante with a mission to protect street dogs. It's a distinctive storyline that sets the film apart. Yet, the execution and the cast's performance are a mixed bag, diminishing the overall impact of the film.

Anshuman Jha, who is given the responsibility to lead the film, disappointingly delivers a less than satisfactory performance. As the vigilante, the character demanded a stronger, more convincing portrayal, which unfortunately Jha falls short of delivering.

On the flip side, Riddhi Dogra is the film's saving grace. Continuing her outstanding performances from her TV Series "Asur", she brings an exceptional depth to her role in "Lakadbhagga". Dogra demonstrates her versatility and ability to excel in a variety of roles, making a strong case for her to be featured in more mainstream Bollywood films.

The direction of the film leaves much to be desired. It fails to do justice to the unique premise and doesn't manage to evoke the intended emotional resonance. The setup in Calcutta, while rich in cultural heritage, seems misplaced for the context of the film. It doesn't add much value to the storyline and instead ends up feeling forced and inauthentic.

Overall, "Lakadbhagga" is a film with a promising premise, bolstered by a remarkable performance from Riddhi Dogra. However, it stumbles due to a weak lead performance by Anshuman Jha, lackluster direction, and a mismatched setting. It's a commendable effort that falls just short of delivering a fulfilling cinematic experience. If you are a fan of Riddhi Dogra, "Lakadbhagga" is worth a watch for her performance alone.

I was able to see the movie in Stuttgart Germany at the Indian film festival, so I was simply curious and open for everything to come.

And it came good!

It was a good mixture of action and background story!

What really impressed me was, the actor who played Arjun trained for 6 months and made the action scenes look so real! Congratulations to the actor/s and the trainer who made a really good job!

It's the first time I've seen a secret vigilante fight for animals!

Sometimes I wished they would have given more time for the topics(animal cruelty) which came up, because one time it felt like a recital of topics. Then the single scenes with the background story between the action, are worthy to have some time to breath and to unfold naturally.

If there are movies which are allowed to be longer than 1.5 hours, it's Indian movies!

Maybe I just wished, the movie would have been longer 😅

It's the first part of a trilogy or series, so I'm excited to see what the crew brings out in the second part!

Lakdabagga is an important film, I think this film didn't get the it should have. Anshuman (Arjun) has done a great job, fight sequence was too classy , akshara and his brother. Akshara and her brother also did a good job. I hope to watch the second part of this film soon.

The concept of the film was very clear and the casting of the film was also accurate, wanted to see more of Arjun's father's character. The location of the film was good and the background music of the film was quite melodious, matching with the story of the film.

Congratulations to the entire team of Lakdbagga. I hope to see the second part of this film soon.

We need to encourage these movies because they have some messages that we overlook or we don't care about. The audience and their taste is now changing and hopefully people will accept these kind of contents with more welcoming manner. I would like to encourage the director, producer and the actors and everyone associated with this project to continue to work on projects like these. I can understand that the money is less however the content is pure and authentic. Giving 9 starts and keeping one star so you guys have room to do even better and grow. There are a lot more contents and issues that people needs to be aware of. Cheers!

A very good attempt was seen here by the whole team

The content is new to Bollywood of animal used for illegal activities and how a guy tries to save these animals..the makers have shown good detailing of animals and their breeds..performances of both Anshuman and Riddhi very good along with Paresh

The best part of the movie is the action which is one of a kind Anshuman riddhi and Paresh gave good action scenes

As it was as a action packed movie the pace should be very fast and some long action scenes were required..the love story was dumb

The movie is perfect for OTT watch.
