Stunning, awesome,great, mzedar, jhakkas,
Zwigato is movie made in beautiful city of and depicts what an ordinary family faces in the post-pandemic world. Kapil Sharm, who rose to prominence due to his comic timing, will play a serious role in the film. MUST Watch movie starring kapil sharma,Shahana Goswami.

Respect for delivery persons after watching this movie. Nandita Das has done incredible job just by thinking of a movie like this. Rest of the work has been done with pure class by Kapil . I was a great fan of his comedy but had never imagined that he can also act so well. What an all rounder he is... I mean singing,standup, acting everything. Inhuman at his level.
Direction is also great. The depiction of life of a common man from lower class is exact and incredible. Nothing in this movie is off. You are definitely going to get emotional after watching this movie. Also you will never disrespect any delivery boy ever.

Nandita Das stunned me via Zwigato with two things. One, the beautiful way she has weaved topics of caste, unemployment, poor handling od pandemic in India, the gig economy, class, family, and patriarchy. Two, the amateur filmmaking and production value of the entire setup. Going in to the movie - especially with how the central app is designed or the attention to details - you almost wonder why not much thought was gone into it and it's working. It's a bit satirical but more than anything Zwigato gives you a new perspective about online food delivery. As a mere consumer, Zwigato surprised me and think will make me a bit more patient and considerate while ordering food online. The jibe at Zomato and Swiggy is immense here to the tune of lawsuit vulnerability.

Zwigato delivers a stark and poignant glimpse into the often-overlooked life of a delivery worker, capturing the relentlessness and vulnerability of the job with raw realism. Kapil Sharma, stepping away from his comedic roots, surprises with a nuanced and earnest portrayal that grounds the film's emotional depth. The story itself unfolds with an intentional pace, immersing viewers in the character's daily struggles, minor victories, and quiet despair -hallmarks of impactful art cinema that aim to evoke empathy rather than thrill.
The screenplay complements this storytelling approach, carefully crafting each moment to let audiences experience both the heaviness and fleeting joys of the protagonist' life. This slower rhythm is the film's strength, allowing the narrative to resonate on a deeper level. However, the one noticeable flaw is Sharma's Bhojpuri accent, which seems unnecessary and occasionally detracts from the authenticity of his character.
Shahana Goswami, as his wife, shines throughout with a performance that is as natural as it is compelling, while Nandita Das's direction brings it all together with a restrained yet powerful hand, enhancing the film's realism and emotional gravity. Altogether, Zwigato emerges as a film of profound sensitivity and relevance-a must-watch for those who appreciate cinema that challenges and engages on a human level.

This is exactly the movie to epitomize what a director can give us viewers a gift!
I have not been a fan of nandita das as a director, actor yes. This movie will very pleasantly eat my words. Again director is the key. Even an untrained nobody like me can work in your film since you are there.
I believe that KS is a still a soft mud earthen pot that you can still shape. He is very smart and he is the example what street smart means! He used it to his advantage and truly deserves what he has achieved!
ND: is a great eye for talent and how to work producers to fund the movie. Well ma'am I had a crush on you and still left my bias away from this review!
Great watch Ma'am!
