Tottaa Pataaka Item Maal is an experimental film which can be classified as a revenge genre. The subject of the movie is highly controversial but one shouldn't shy away from this. It is absolutely necessary to explore the film and start a discussion or debate about it at every level from family, college, schools, colleges etc to discuss the controversial subject of the movie. It's a revolutionary film in many ways though the action remains questionable for many.
"An eye for an eye will make the whole world blind" Gandhiji's words does make a lot of sense but the actions of these care free rapists in today's scenario, our impotent & corrupt judicial system along with the I don't give a damn police force doesn't give us any hopes, especially for the commoner. Yes, what they showed in Tottaa Pataaka Item Maal is wrong but what other choices do we have as a commoner? to instil some fear into these minds of these rapists. In fact I would really enjoy to see these rapists on the receiving end. I completely support this action & the views of Tottaa Pataaka Item Maal to instil a new beginning. Enough is enough.
Tottaa Pataaka Item Maal is a movie where it's content matters more than the making & acting. Full credit to director Aditya Kripalani for handling such a highly controversial subject beautifully. Yes technically the movie lags in its screenplay, especially in the first half and has some logical loopholes. Cinematography is poor in some places as well as editing. Most of the acting were raw and average sans Salini vatsa who has done a decent job. But as I have mentioned earlier the movie is made for its content and the makers have proved their point beautifully.
Tottaa Pataaka Item Maal is a must watch movie for women of all ages to be watched along with their spouses or boyfriends, to get the message around. It would be a great eye opener for men to understand the humiliation & emotions that women go through during & after such disastrous ordeals. It's the "Full Monty of Indian Cinema" and truly revolutionary in every way. Two Thumbs Up for its content.

This movie is that scare that we call "WHAT IF". The scare that hasn't been felt by far but is so much needed especially in the parts where men are living a deluded patriarchal life. Where women are commoditized, they are called Totta, Pataka, Item, Mall...!! The idea of 'What if' is explored with serious care without deviating from reality. Four women for one Man, well yes because it was the first attempt by any movie maker where a hero wasn't needed to give our 'man' the taste of his own medicine. This movie is a great representation of the power of metal strength over a physical strength and will surely bring a tsunami is mind sets of people. All in all, an extraordinary movie with a revolutionary ending.
The storyline of the movie is quite interesting. I'm not giving out any spoilers. It's the story about 4 women kidnapping a guy and they try to make him realise the fear of rape. The screenplay, direction , acting everything is good in the movie. Recommended.
Most of us are probably used to the kinds of Bollywood movies that have a certain style to them. They may have a lot of singing and dancing and probably drag on for more than two and a half hours. You've probably only seen one or two of them, or maybe none at all, just because watching them can be so tedious.
Those films aren't bad, in my opinion, and I've even enjoyed a few of them quite a bit, but it's just hard for me to get in the mood for them sometimes. They can feel like this big event, and they don't have as much appeal for viewers who may not be from India.
This film, however, was a completely different experience. It tells a relevant and intriguing human story that all of us can relate to in one way or another. It does not feel at all like a typical Bollywood film, because it's not. It's not like anything at all, as a matter of fact, but it has more in common with European art films than anything I've seen come out of India. It is a true work of art. Highly recommend.

Extremely gripping story, makes you get out of your comfort zone and think. There is justice done to a dark and radical 'what if' that comes to mind when one has been let down too many times. It is very refreshing to see badass women take charge of the situation, on screen. Really loved how a woman's anger is respectfully acknowledged and portrayed so beautifully. A realistic plot, that will keep you at the edge of your seat till then end.
