Dabaru

A few days ago, Anurag Kashyap levels Bengali cinema 'Ghatiya' during his visit to Kolkata Film Festival. The maker of 'Dabaru' proved his point with responsibility. First of all this movie has no genre. I think the story inspired by Surya Sekhar Ganguly's life. But ... At least the story comes with so much cinematic potential, it's the treatment and execution that falter at ground level. It's mercilessly slaughtered by some shoddy writing and equally cringe-worthy execution of the script. Be it the unnecessary characters, so many unnecessary subplots or the lack of both depth - Pathikrit Basu's film is an absolute blunder. The film is a farce, as aptly proved by the laughter in theatres every single time a character threw a dialogue. 1st half was comparatively better, but 2nd half of the film blunder the whole story. Too much background music makes the film cheaper. There are a lot of good actors in this movie but awful direction and rubbish script and storyline make this movie spoil of time. This director should be requested from refraining from making any further movies.
