Fursat

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.

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.

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.

Normally, I skip ahead on commercials. This kept my attention. I had to know more, what was this?? I think it is genius of Apple, and I hate to admit that, because they are an evil corporation...lol. The Hippy in me. I think it opens up the cultural divide between us open minded. I'm happy about the worlds melting pot and love learning about others way of living and thinking. With more understanding, less judgement, and a attitude of kindness, this world can improve and we need that right now. I took a point away, for lack of subtitles, so I knew what they are saying. I need 26 no 12 more cha🤣

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 🙂!!
