Kaam Chalu Hai

Up until this point, Muchhal's film is a montage of shots and songs strung together to depict a happy family. The film's pace is slow and the execution is like a dramatised version of a social service advertisement. Performances up until the big twist are purely cursory, to the point of being caricaturish. The banter between them seems quite artificial. It's only in the second half when the film begins to deliver its message. It's understandable to show the happy family so the audience can relate with them, but the first half is way too animated. Nonetheless, the seriousness of the subject is well documented, as the story progresses and one can relate with just how diabolical and dangerous these potholes can be. They can snuff life out of anyone within seconds or worse still, maim people for life. But the administrative apathy is so rampant that it's frustrating to see why it doesn't lead to serious consequences like falling off of a government.
