Fursat

Movie is shot with Iphone, but its budget is more than a regular movies. Real achievement would have been to make an engaging thought provoking movie with very low budget too.

Its 30. Mins ling movie and full of songs and dance set pieces. Can the director please let us know why anyone would like to watch such movie. There is hardly any screenplay or story here. No dialogues or concept.

Ishan Khattar is not a good actor. He thinks growing beard, running, breathing heavily, shouting, sweating etc is acting. He should see Irfan Khan's work. His eyes used to act. Dude stop partying and learn in some acting school. Audience don't feel conmected to you.

Actress has good screen presence.

Vishal Bharwaj as a director is hugely dissapointing. Dont go for the gimmick iphone shot movie.l, its waste of time.

Fursat. Is a musical drama short with a strong impact on presentation. Vishal Bharadwaj done a good job and make the thing clear cut and perform in a appropriate way . Story and character provide the material in a better way the story execution the film to a level that make it an exciting watch.

While there are some of you argue that there are worth of rigs and post production element s that do factor into the final result. The acting of the male character and female lead is good and the script and screenplay are nice and make mind in a peace the dance scene are good and song in the film are aset of pieces.

It clearly shows that this film was shot on iphone because of the poor video quality even in 1080p but keeping even that aside, there isn't much going on in this film. The film starts with an interesting cold open setting up some reasonably high stakes for a 30 minute short film but in the end transpires to become comical.

This film solidifies that vishal bhardwaj is really only bound by the commercialization of the hindi film industry but still, he brings life to an artificial studio set piece using some incredible lighting, costume, silhouettes and design.

My big takeaway from this film would be songs and nothing much else because I'm still conflicted about the performances and I don't really know what to make of them.

Film Review: Fursat ( a short musical thriller streaming on Disney+ Hotstar) #sanjuzzreviews #Fursat #ishankhattar #vishalbhardwaj #iphone14pro Shot entirely using an iPhone14 Pro & directed by ace director Vishal Bhardwaj, Fursat is very different kind of film which might not appeal to everyone.

It is a five line story made into a film, but not using the conventional 2 dimensional approach.

Ishaan khattar plays a man obsessed with his gadget "Doordarshak" capable of seeing the future. His obsession is such that he misses his engagement on account of it. His fiance gets engaged to another man in frustration & Ishaan sees something in his Doordarshak which brings a whole new dimension to the story.

Be warned, it is a musical and there are many songs in the 30 min runtime of the film. Many of you might feel that the songs slow down the pace of the film but no, it has been presented that way by design. Ishan is brilliant & the dances have been choreographed very well to compliment the narrative perfectly. Icing on the cake is that the film has been shot in its entirety using an iPhone 14 Pro. Just brilliant!!

Worth spending 30 mins of your time to watch something different !!

... Adios 🙂!!

I was amazed to hear that, this film was shot on IPhone 14 Pro Max!!.

The quality of the work is just awesome. This shows the dedication to the work. When I heard a quote from a Film Maker on a Film Making Course, which I took, he says, "Equipment doesn't matter". Yes these people proved it. Even though they have used Cranes or Jimmy's even some shots contained Aerial Views. Am not sure how they might have captured that particular aerial shots. The complete plot was neatly carried out until the climax. Enjoyed the musical festival here. I would liked more if it was outputted to the Aspect Ratio of 2.39:1 rather than 16:9.
