Bhonsle

Movie's concept is very simple. No catchy dialogues, no songs, simple story. But this movie shows only a pure acting. Manoj Sir's acting is really great. Its called pure art. And the direction and detailing in movies are fantastic. If you want to watch pure acting then do watch this Masterpiece!!!

From the directors of Ajji here comes another film which is much much darker with its concept, highlights numerous social issues with its tonality and narrative. The main highlight of the whole film was the narrative. The narrative itself is written in such a manner where you will find each and every character highlighted in a unique manner, and each one having their own shades. The performances were solid including the ensemble cast. Each and every performance stand out in various ways. Be it Ipshita Chakraborty Singh & Virat Vaibhav as the sister-brother duo or even Abhishek Banerjee in a short role as a Kattar Bihari. But the showsteller were Manoj Bajpayee as Bhonsle, a retired cop and Santosh Juvekar as an over-ambitious Kattar Marathi. The colour palate and the realistic sound design used in the whole film made it more dark and gritty. There are few sequences where there is no dialogue but the actions of the characters conveyed a lot about their nature which was truely a great approach. The film is mainly shot using the close up frame that too in a man-handed manner which made the audience connect with the character. Last thing which was exceptional was the constant relation between the deity of Lord Ganesha and the main character Bhonsle. The plot of the film is realistic and not meant for the faint hearted. I personally loved the film and will surely recommend this. Do give it a watch if you like it raw and dark.

A cinematic masterpiece !! Manoj at its best and Rahul juvekar shines after sacred games ..... A bit slow but can be overlooked coz of a cinema canvassing. Such movies are loved by all cinema lovers. Gr8 experience

Bhonsle is a commendable piece of art and it rightfully portrays the message. However, if you genuinely don't like art films or you just can't bear slow paced cinema, this is definitely not your cup of tea.

The film definitely holds its flaws but it also raises a few questions which seems to hold no answers. A few scenes invoke an imbalance in the film and ruins the chemistry with the audience forcing you to skip. But, sitting through those flaws is completely worth it.

The film is a commendable piece of art and it rightfully portrays the message. However, if you genuinely don't like art films or you just can't bear slow paced cinema, this is definitely not your cup of tea. But, for a change you could definitely try to make an exception for a unique film.

This film paints an accurate picture of the toxic environment in which we are. The film shows us that the canker of intolerance of divisive politics is slowly spreading in our society.

SonyLIV Bhonsle is a film whose value should not be measured by its content, but by the way, the content is presented. The story does not waste time to keep its point, but every scene tells a story of its own.

Mirat Trivedi, Devashish Makhija, and Sharanya Rajgopal have written an accurate and useful screenplay. The story also tells the truth of how politics operates in the lower classes.

The story is slow, and viewers find themselves wondering where the story is at one point. In the first half, there could be a boom. But not everyone will enjoy sitting through the film.

The film shows us that wily politicians have mastered the British art of division and governance that makes illiterate people wicked and turn on their fellow humans.

The story is rhythmic in its case and works more effectively than telling the essence.

It is primarily a one-person show. Manoj Bajpayee is quite outstanding. In his case, I would say that he did not choose the role, the role chose him.

Bajpayee is Bhonsle, Bhosle is Bajpayee. You can't close your eyes for a while to see them. Manoj Bajpayee is a symbol of acting in today's day and age.

The actor plays a character with bare minimum words. All other artists give adequate support with their restrained performances.

Bhonsle gets a lot of support from Ipshita and Virat Vaibhav. Both enhance Bajpayee's performance. We would have loved to see more of Abhishek Banerjee.

Devashish Makhija is the director of this film who does not attempt to promote. He only comes to tell a story, and he inspires Goosebumps.

Bhonsle is a film that is full of great technical aspects. The camera work in this film is excellent.

Jigmet Wangchuk's cinematography threaded, straightforward narrative and visual poetry together.

His camera and simple shots increase the seriousness of the story.

The background music gives the perfect touch.

The story of Bhonsle is not thick. This is a simple story that has been told in different ways. Every cinema lover should see the Bhonsle movie on SonyLIV.
