Joram

Well made film. I Missed the film at Mumbai film festival but good to see it in theatres.

Good direction acting production and post. Must watch. The film used a good balance between loudness and silence which is rarely done in Bollywood movies.

Films like this should come from India and get international acclaim, hopefully more will come out.

Probably the story lies between fiction and documentary and in half an hour of watching I was immersed into the story and became a part of it. We can't say the things told in the film may have actually happened. Never know.

It must be watched on the big screen.

Joram paints a tense picture of Dasru (Manoj Bajpai) on the run with his baby daughter post his wife's murder. Inspector Ratnakar (Mohd Zeeshan Ayub) pursues him relentlessly across Mumbai and Jharkhand.

Smita Tambe's portrayal as Phulo Karma seeking retribution is gripping. The film sheds light on farmers' struggles and the complexities of parenthood amid adversity.

With riveting performances, "Joram" becomes a raw portrayal of societal challenges. It's a rollercoaster ride of action, emotion, and social relevance, leaving a lasting impact.

I would advise people from all generation to watch this masterpiece in Cinema Halls only.

I went for this movie as I couldn't get the tickets for an another movie (so much for marketing a movie :) But what did we just watch!!!! This must be the best ever Indian movie I have ever seen ever. This is the kind of movie I was waiting for, from Bollywood. Have we come of age? This HAS to be watched in theatres. This is Panchayat meets Kill Bill. Such storyline, I am suddenly proud of Indian Cinema. An extremely sensitive subject of Naxals has been chosen here, and the government's lust for development, leading to rapid decimation of our forests, ecology and all the good things which nature ever gave us. The entire theatre was silent, eerie silent the entire movie, on the edge, goosebumps. This is first ever moment I have seen Indian public just sitting quietly, not moving because we were so moved internally, almost for about 5 minutes after the movie finished. So this is the next movie after GOW & Rang de Basanti, in my my Bollywood hall of fame. Anyways this will not be sent by India for Cannes/ Oscars, but some random garbage from Bhansali or Karan Johar, as usual and embarrassing themselves internationally. Anyways, so this movie has to be seen. Don't go with small kids as there is gore at a few places. Also, what sorcery is this - I see people saying great things about this movie in other reviews but giving less rating? They don't want others to watch this movie? My rating is 20/10. And this is coming from someone who is allergic to Bollywood.

I am truly thankful to the writer, director, and actors who take bold steps to create such layered cinema. Despite commercial cinema dominating the indie movie box-office, a film like that is still searching for its place, almost as if it's tucked away in a corner of a large multiplex.

In today's time, there are fewer movies being made that can truly resonate with people and compel them to ponder, forcing them to realize that this is the same society that separates humanity from humaneness.

The movie "Joram" beautifully portrayed all characters in their roles. We don't perceive Dasru as Manoj Bajpayee we see him solely as Dasru. Similarly, Smita Tambe played magnificently as Phulo Karma, and Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub portrayed Ratnakar with brilliance.

Overall, it's a creative concept which is beautifully written and directed by Devashish Makhija.

"Joram" is a gripping Indian Hindi thriller that navigates the intricacies of survival, justice, and revenge. Manoj Bajpai's portrayal of Dasru, a man framed for his wife's murder, is deeply compelling. His desperate journey from Mumbai to Jharkhand unfolds an intense tale of evasion and revelation.

Mohd Zeeshan Ayub's portrayal of Police Inspector Ratnakar adds a relentless pursuit element, showcasing the cat-and-mouse chase between law enforcement and Dasru. However, it's Smita Tambe's portrayal of the ruthless politician Phulo Karma that steals the show. Her portrayal is commanding, leaving a lasting impact through her nuanced expressions and intensity.

"Joram" not only delves into the personal quest for justice but also addresses larger societal issues, such as the conflict between development and the destruction of natural resources. The film touches upon the plight of farmers selling their lands to industries and subsequently facing the challenges of urban labor.

Intriguing, intense, and thought-provoking, "Joram" captivates audiences with its stellar performances and its exploration of pertinent social issues. Manoj Bajpai's powerful presence, coupled with Smita Tambe's exceptional acting, makes this film a must-watch. It's a testament to the potential of cinema in reflecting and addressing significant societal debates.
