ANEK - 8.2 1st half, 6.5 2nd half. Overall 7.5/10 (more weightage to first half these days as if that isn't fancy, nobody will go till the end)

It opens a new door to Indian cinema which talks about geo-politics of the most complicated democracy in the world with 22 official languages with no national language and national sport as such. Why? Well, it isn't democratic yet to decide on one, the very oneness we miss as a country. This film lays bare the very dirty and polluted politics of India and its policies to deal with separatists. We Indians are at one side and the separatists toil to scramble the ladder of recognition but they are pulled back with two choices, either die or chant Jai Hind and be with us. Quite not fair, right? Well, for the majority of us, it is fair. The India is politics and not its people.

Ayushman's best work so far with no flaw as such. The North-east crew was quite brilliant. I loved the way they hid the state name and all jeeps had NE on their name plates. Great direction. Punchy dialogues. A bit lenghty and boring in the second half as the prologue of the movie in the first half was covered fantastically and it was all about executing that in the 2nd half with a bitter and gory war at 3 fronts. Won't give spoilers. Do not just join the bandwagon of that population which doesn't even watch and start criticizing just by seeing the names. A great movie buff decides all by himself. A must watch to know this side as well.

Don't take side and view this with a neutral instance.

This movie is not concluding anything. It's just trying to portray perspective of different people.

Good movie to watch for especially the movie is about northeast people and their relationships with India ayushaman khuranna rocks in the movie this movie explores different subject.

Its not a movie worth for entertainment.... It's certainly not made for that.. The picture would make you aware of the circumstances which are probably faced by the living citizens of North East... And its not probably about North East, about majority of the Indian states are eventually disregarded or are made discriminated with the United power of India by some racial remarks, to be honest... The picture just brings out the mentioned issue infront of all... The plot has been exaggerated a little so the ratings have been cut upon that, but i won't say that the gist is wrong... In the end, the choice is all yours if you would wanna watch it or not... But pls kindly dont expect it to be a entertaining one cause the issues are not...

Film 'Anek' is the truth of this time. If you are living with the truth, then this film is a nightmare for you. It's a decent watch. If political thrillers fascinate you, it might as well be your weekend pick. However, if you were to go keeping the same expectation as Article 15, then you might return disappointed. But we would like you to keep the two films distinct and enjoy both as two separate dishes. Who knows, Anek might actually be the conversation starter yet again in the era of political thrillers.

While Sinha has become a master with his combination of presenting a social issue while making it engaging and entertaining, that becomes a hit-and-miss here with Anek to an unfortunately large extent. It is still a brave attempt overall and most importantly, does spark dialogue as it intended to.
