Featured reviews
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.
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.

I saw this on Netflix few days back.
This is one of the best realistic cinema to come out from Bollywood.
I feel this movie wasn't advertised well nor did this movie got its due due to political reasons.
The movie is noted for Anubhav Sinha's passionate depiction of the plight of the poor, and many fascists will definitely attack the social and political views.
Bheed is a must watch for anyone who wants to know what happened to the migrant workers during the first wave of covid.
The song herail ba, its music n voice is mesmerizing.
Pankaj Kapoor gave a solid performance. His accent of that of the North Indian is spot on.
Rajkumar Rao gave a very restrained but good performance.
The movie also handled the Tablighi Jamaat issue in a very realistic way.
The Chief Justice of India Sharad Bobde observed "evasiveness" in that the Government of India's affidavit filed in response to petitions challenging the discriminatory and communal coverage of the Tablighi Jamaat incident by some sections of the media.
The Bombay High Court quashed the FIRs.
The court observed: "A political government tries to find the scapegoat when there is pandemic or calamity and the circumstances show that there is probability that the Jaamat was chosen to make them scapegoats.

Bheed
Anubhav sinha after mulk, article 15 and thappad expectations were set high, with bheed he somehow manages to deliver what audience will appreciate.
Movie could have been better but this dosen't mean it fallen short anywhere.
Bheed manages to touch one's heart & soul, feel what our migrant brothers and sisters went through when we went into lockdown.
This movie showcases the frustration, fear, care, anger which makes you feel what I would have done if I was locked in such a situation.
Every emotion was captured perfectly in this movie be it, How the Govt just ignored it's own people, at a time when the common people wanted them the most.
Or How people managed and survived with each others help, this is what makes true India.
Rajkumar rao, Pankaj Kapoor, Rana, Bhumu, Dia, Virendra & many more everyone gave excellent performance, proper casting is the added plus point and strength of this movie.
Not a great one but very near to it.
A must watch movie to get the feel of what actually happened during that difficult time.

Bheed by Anubhav Sinha - first of all, watching this film in black and white was a unique experience on the big screen. Set in a fictional state and town with all vehicles number plates CP. It shows what happened during the height of pandemic at a town border, when all migrants wanted to return to their town. I feel that writers literally took all the headlines going around during the pandemic, compressed them to one place and all the problems were faced in a single day.
Every topic was covered caste, religion, politics and poverty. Due to this, the story didn't feel focused and the movie's runtime was only 1h50m. This needed a slower approach and maybe it was too soon to release this film. They could have made it 5-10 years later. It shows poor management by the current govt.
The acting was wonderful, but these were the best - Rajkumar Rao, Dia Mirza, Aditya Srivastava, Pankaj Kapoor and Aushutosh Rana.
So I saw the censor board certificate which states all the cuts done in this film, I feel, due to this, 50% impact of the film is lost.
