Patna Shukla

According to the storyline I heard in the upcoming Movie - Patna Shuklaa (Roll Number Scam), 1998 B. Sc. Same happened with my Marksheet in (Pure Science)-exam. My exam seat read in The Bhawanipur Educational Society College - Kolkata.

After knowing the result I was in frustration mode for a year. In the mean time, even if you make some mistakes; I made a big mistake not going to court. At that time, if I had challenged in the court, I might have got the entire account. Now except the fail marksheet and admit card of the exam, I don't have any information about that exam.

This is a true story.

Movie is available on Hotstar.

Before making up my mind to watch it, I checked out its IMDB rating which gave a negative perspective. However, i thought of giving it a try and to find out myself why so low ratings.

If it would have been released like 25-30 years back, or even before, it could have still worked out. Now i am not saying there weren't good court room Hindi dramas available that time, but now things are different; people watch more realistic approach, or if not, adrenaline filled bursts.

I am no lawyer, but whatever i have heard or seen or found, it is a very tough and protocol oriented job. There is a code of conduct and one has to follow it one way or the other. The court decorum has to be maintained, no matter what. This was something in the movie that bothered me the most. One of the lamest, unrealistic, and no-decorum-followed court drama that I ever watched. You need to watch it yourself to understand it in real.

The second problem came with the easiness of the way the prosecutor handled the whole situation. The dealing between a best and an amateur lawyer in the city felt lazy and sluggish. The writers should have watched other court room dramas like Jolly LLB to understand how the heat between lawyers increase tensions in the peoples mind watching it.

The movie already felt like shaping to provide justice to the student. We all know that at the end the outcome should have been what was shown, but the situations to derive it felt lame, boring, melodramatic, and one-sided.

Overall, i will give it 3.

'Patna Shukla' presents Bihar as a backdrop-a state often steeped in stereotypes. The portrayal of lawlessness, bureaucratic chaos, and illogical systems can indeed perpetuate negative perceptions. However, it's crucial to recognize that no community is monolithic. Bihar, like any other region, is multifaceted, with vibrant culture, resilience, and progress.

By focusing solely on the absurdities, 'Patna Shukla' risks reinforcing a single narrative. It's essential to acknowledge the state's rich history, its contributions to literature, art, and social movements. While the film's intent may be satirical, it's crucial to avoid reducing an entire community to caricatures.

And of course, the Plot.. it has no logic whatsoever.

The judge took entire movie to get to the most logical first response.. Get those fffffff copies re checked.

The movie was running fine in the room but all the twist shown are all baseless, there is no basis for all those twist, all my time was wasted watching this movie, i feel that my time has been wasted, the acting is good, the story is rubbish. And the biggest thing is that you don't learn anything from this movie.

A very simple average courtroom drama but the case is typically unique n new of a kind. Story revolves around a marksheet scam run by a corrupted Bihar University where underprivileged children marksheets are exchanged with privileged students. The scam explodes when daughter of an autodriver reaches court seeking the justice. The treatment of entire movie is dry and execution is very average. The dialogues are very pale n courtroom scenes don't have required intensity but yet quite a decent film as there is no unwanted mirch masala nor film gets preachy anywhere. The main highlight of the movie is revelation of a kind of new scam. Available on Disney Hotstar. My ratings 6/10!
