Fursat

Well, there is nothing much to talk about except it was shot on a phone. Well done for that and 1 star for that. That's it.

Story is haphazard, screenplay is a mess, acting of male lead is irritating and nonsensical. Female lead did best what was asked from her. Would like to see her progress more in a better set up. Male lead is pain actually.

VB shot this on iphone but what about the production value of the film. It's lavish and grandeur. Just by saying it was shot on a phone doesn't convey that anyone can make a film of this opulence. Stop fooling.

VB helmed Shakespearean trilogy which is reverred till today. This one is just a waste.

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.

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.

Bit different mode of storytelling but there is no story so just the telling won't keep you engrossed if you aren't stoned. This isn't great cinema its below average.

Shahid's brother should stop acting he's just occupying space of someone who's a better actor. If he can become an actor then anybody can.

VB needs to make dark cinematic masterpieces like his Shakespeare trilogy. But problem is no producer is willing to greenlight him because financially all his films haven't recovered the budget ever. Gems like kaminey, haider, omkara, 7 khoon maaf, maqbool weren't able to break-even at BO And when he throws in a Matru ki Bijlee or Rangoon in between it keeps the producers at bay.

His son is also interested in the same genre but his first film kuttey bombed at BO sadly a script is required which has substance.

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.
