Bheed

Bheed is an insight into the lockdown and its impact. The film lays bare the real picture of our society which is divided on the lines of religion, cast and class. All is not lost though as humanity saves the day.

The film is another feather to Anubhav Sinha's cap after Mulk, Article 15, Thappad and Anek. His second innings is really impressive where he continues to make one hard hitting film after the other. He might have worked with different actors here but the impact remains the same.

An ensemble of actors comprising Rajkummar Rao, Bhumi Pednekar, Ashutosh Rana, Pankaj Kapur, Dia Mirza and others perform really well and deliver a socially relevant and important film.

United We Stand Divided We Fall-Is the message which this film wants to convey. If we are united we Are 'Civilized Society' If we Divide we are 'Bheed'. The problem with the Indian society is classism and casteism. If we unite together we can bring down any problem heading our way. Us Indians are naive and hence are often exploited by the powerful people as they divide and rule us(whether it were Mughals, Britishers, Despotic Government) Quite ENOUGH, now lets talk about the film.

The film showcases How people from different communities and caste unite together to fight system which is causing them Trouble. ALL THE ACTORS HAVE DONE COMMENDABLE JOB. Film has some loose plots. But the message is very clear. The film shouldn't have been banned. Could've been proved an eye opener to the blind Devouts.

Films that make you uncomfortable, for all the right reasons, are few and far between. That hold a mirror and show you the kind of society that you are and the possibilities of what you can chose to become. That don't seem to be made with intent of commercial success, but with an intent of striking at the conscience. Such films need to be celebrated.

Bheed is one such endeavour. It is set in the initial days of the first lockdown, during March- april of 2020 and follows the action at an interstate checkpost, across which all movement, of vehicles as well as of humans has been prohibited.

It intermixes this with sometime subtle and sometimes explicit commentary on the casteist as well as communal mindset along with class- divide.

Rajkumar Rao is sensational. Almost oscar worthy. So is Pankaj Kapoor.

Anubhav Sinha gets back in form, after the ordinary Anek. This is amongst his top films, right up there with Mulk and Thappad. There are multiple scenes that show his obvious political leanings, but he does up a fabulous job with the tough subject.

Mandatory watch.

Anubhav Sinha is the master of his craft of story telling, the latest example is Bheed. The movie is based on COVID mass migration crisis and related small stories. The script is very tight and keeps the audience hooked till the end and make them aware of many untouched aspects of COVID. Background score provide good support to the story. If we talk about acting, Rajkumar Rao delivers one of the best performance of his career. In a supporting role Ashutosh Rana and Aditya Shrivastav creat a big impact, their performances will remain with you for quite long time. Pankaj Kapoor is mind blowing and elevated the movie to the next level. Bhumi Padnekar and Diya Mirza lends very good support. At the end, movie is as good as it's direction and for this I have only one word for Anubhav Sinha- Awesome.

The movie's story is around some true events during the COVID lockdown. It shows the failures of the mismanagement of the Indian government.

The direction and acting of all the actors were perfect. The story raises many issues, like our society's caste system, polarization, and misinformation. The movie also shows how we are all humans. Do not fall for the negative reviews.

The story is about multiple characters who either needed to leave their homes in a big city or got stranded and needed to reach some location due to the lockdown.

On the border of a fictional town, a police officer and his subordinates are supposed to stop the crowd from entering the town.

If you like movies closer to reality and are unafraid of seeing the uncomfortable truth, please watch.
