Kathal

This movie is so good. It tackles a serious subject with so much ease and laughter. The language, relationship of police with each other and with politicians, whole ambience of this movie was very relatable and felt real. Most of all the comedy and the end scene reminded me of movies like hera pheri or welcome. I commend the writers and director Yashowardhan Mishra and Ashok Mishra for bringing back comedy genre at its finest. I wasn't bored one bit. It handled so many big topics without making you feel heavy yet still nodding your head at the unfortunate reality of our society. Whole cast did an amazing job. I was thoroughly entertained. Congratulations!

Kathal is one of the finest light-spirited comedy movie with underlying tones of social message that I've seen in a very long time. Despite dealing with a subgenre that is almost a tightrope-balance between becoming a satirical comedy and a meaningless laughter riot it's heart remains at the right place and never attempts be either. It takes a brilliant attempt at humanising every character quite in a way "Panchayat" does . The boldness that lies in its simplistic story-telling that attempts keeps you hooked to your seat for two hours is itself commendable. "Kathal" is a must-watch for all aspiring screenwriters and cinephiles alike.

Kathal: A Jackfruit Mystery, a well cooked social satire, cleverly intertwines the disappearance of two jackfruits with a captivating narrative that reveals broader societal issues. With a perfect balance of humor and a leisurely pace, the film skillfully highlights complex caste dynamics and gender biases without being preachy. While it could have delved deeper into these themes, Kathal beautifully captures the allure of rural life and its simple joys. The cast delivers captivating performances, infused with witty banter, while the police force is portrayed with raw authenticity. Kathal is a good-watch, offering 120 minutes of clean cinematic experience!

Kathal: A Jackfruit Mystery is marketed as a typical Comedy movie and I think there should be two sides of marketing this movie, One which should be primary is how due to Political Power the Time and Energy of Police is misused rather Solving other existing problems, and to the critics, this movie is not just an other comedy movie but this "Creative piece of Art" has enlighten great topics like Racial Discrimination of Caste and Gender, and highlighted how Political power should not be misused. Thanks to the team for bringing this movie, and I am unhappy with the marketing team. I rate it 8/10.

A commendable satire that not only bravely addresses all of the pertinent issues bedevilling our society, but also takes sly jabs at the authorities, politically affiliated parties, and, specifically, the police administration.

Despite being quite adamant and sincere in its core objective, the film never gives up its quirky demeanour. It kept the humour going until the story reached its conclusion. And trust me when I say that the final chapter of this tale is one heck of a laughter ride.

P. S. Sanya Malhotra is rapidly emerging as the performer with undeniable versatility and range; I just wish she would keep selecting scripts that would push her further and aid in her acting development. She is unquestionably one of the more promising names out there.
