Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster 3

Governments of the people are governments of all people where governments of people localised to rule are governments of some people or all people as government government nowhere in defence of governments as for the people, by the people, and of the people to keep all people of the people, by the people, and for the people if not for governments that deem people so of the people, for the people, and by the people that governments of the people are distinct concentric circles of circularity to keep circular invasions of neighboring authorities circularity of peculiarities linked as governments only by overlapping corners calling trade tariffed over circularity retained only in the concetricity of overlaps over overlaps of yore, perhaps.

The first Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster was brilliant. The second was mediocre, all handled by Irfan Khan. The third film is lost. Its the worst. There is no structure. Its as if the writer has hap-hazardously written something in one night like a college assignment just for the sake of doing it.

The characters have lost their core. Jimmy Shergill and Mahi Gill have given good performances but there is hardly anything in the story. Jimmy's character has downgraded, become a bit dumb. Gill's character, well even the writer does not know what she really wants. Chitrangana (known to do selective films) plays a useless character for the first time in her career. Absolutely zero contribution to the story (whatever it is). Sanjay Dutt is mediocre, let down by the story. And there is Soha Ali Khan also. I am out of words for her character.

The screenplay is lackluster. You actually see people in the theatre checking their phones. Even I did (which I never do). The music is terrible. All songs are bad. Thanks for having just 2 songs. This is the classic Bollywood example of adding songs for no reason.

The main culprit of the movie is Tigmanshu Dhulia. We expect decent content from him. But he is the one who has underdelivered. The writing, the direction is boring. It looks as if he just made the movie hastily or just for the sake of making it or for Sanjay Dutt. He has wasted some good actors, and most importantly a good franchise. Well, not as bad as Remo did for Race!

No storyline & chemistry between characters. Gangster interacted with Saheb when almost 3/4 movie was already finished, he & Saheb didn't had any major problem with each others. Sad to see a brilliant director like Tigmanshu Dhulia couldn't use big stars like Sanjay & Jimmy properly, when he had already made magic with Jimmy & Mahie in SBG1. Saheb Biwi aur Gangster 1 = 9/10 Saheb Biwi aur Gangster 2 = 7/10 Saheb Biwi aur Gangster 3 = 5/10

Never expected Tigmanshu Dhulia to make such a disastrous movie. Story was extremely rubbish. I am sure, Jimmy had some contractual obligations to do such a rubbish movie otherwise you don't get to see Jimmy in such bad movies.

I was expecting SBG3 to be a complete turd, and only went because a friend insisted on us seeing it. There are occasionally interesting moments, mainly because of the returning actors - Jimmy Shergill and Mahie Gill - who are comfortable in their roles even if by now the characters have become cardboard conspirators instead of the more nuanced personas of the first film. These are mixed with heaped helpings of non-sequitur and unintentional hilarity. Sanjay Dutt looks like age, plus a lifetime of booze and hedonistic living have addled his brain to the point he has a perennial slur (or perhaps he was drunk throughout the shoot). Chitrangada Singh is seen as a second-fiddle nautch girl character whose accent suggests she studied her mujra craft at Cambridge, or perhaps Yale. Other characters come and go with less-than-basic regard to continuity and coherence, like no one thought to do a second draft on the script or perhaps even wrote it up as they shot on set.

Apart from the leads, the film's casting seems to have been decided based on a "Kahan gaye woh log?" Bollywood trivia quiz so you have appearances from Kabir Bedi, Nafisa Ali and Deepak-fricking-Tijori.
