Pune-52

The movie has good cinematography, but that's the only thing that holds you to continue watching. * The scenes where the main character tries to take pictures openly and no one notices makes no sense logically. The movie ends abruptly, and there is no repercussion of murders. Lack of connection between hallucinations and reality that keeps you confused throughout the movie. The movie also feels like a drag after interval, lot of unnecessary story- line that adds no value to the movie Overall at the end of the movie, you do not feel satisfied. The upside of the movie is that both Sai Tamhankar and Girish Kulkarni gave good performances. Sonali Kulkarni was good as always.

Great dialogue, different concept and great actors. The flow of the movies is great. 90s aesthetics is perfect. We need such stories.

We are still stuck with cheap comedies and cheesy love stories. Anything different confuses us and that's what other reviewers are also point to for this movie.

Protagonist is flowed and he unreliably narrates the story. Takes you on a ride.

This is a bad movie, total waste of time, poor dialogues, unnecessary 5ex scenes.

There is no plot , no theme.

Looks like the director and writer banked on people's habit to put meaning to anything meaningless as long as they could show off the same to prove they are different (read woke).

The story of a detective goes haywire in the first half hour and never grips the audience. Acting of Sai and Sonali is the only better part of the movie. The story is definitely not original but a mixture of classic western movies stories scrambled in together. Hence it cannot fit in the middleclass setup of a city like Pune. The contunity, editing and sequencing is simply baffling and confusing to the audience. Do not waste your time for such a jerky movie. A typical Hindi masala movie may entertain you better. The so called detective works clumsily and never like a pro. No private detective takes the snaps of the targets so obviously, coming just in front of them. Naturally, he gets caught and pays the penalty.
