UT69

I was apprehensive about watching this film, Kundra in a film, not the most exciting proposition. Yet the film was watched, enjoyed and cried about.

The film begins with Kundra entering the jail and his comical introduction to the reality of it. From jail food to jail loos (or the lack of it) the truth of his situation hits him hard. His mind hallucinates and his stomach perpetually grumbles. On top of that, he is shoved into a crowded cell and not the private celebrity kinds. This is where the story changes and brings in, its beautiful and eccentric characters who pull this comedy forward. The story no longer remains about Kundra but about the people of this jail and the bond they form to keep afloat despite the grimness of their lives.

This film was so surprising as unlike the presumptions about whitewashing, Kundra became just another guy waiting for a hearing and bail with a life no different than that of his fellow cell mates.

The acting is brilliant, even Kundra seemed to be quite genuine. The direction, story, camerawork all seem to fall together seemlessly. The jail and other jail premises seem to be sets and are well done. Over all a one time watch for the laughs and some genuine human moments.

I dont know what came through me and i decided to watch thsi film out of boredom . From the trailer and title itself i thought it is going to be an comedy and parody kind of film but it came out to be more than i expected .

It achieves an overall depth with some kind of comedic angle , raj kundra portraying himself did a fabulous job .

The thing that took my attention the most is how they have portrayed the jail and the enviroment so authentically that it nearly seems believable .

At the runtime the movie has somewhat perfect imbalace of pace and emotional scenes that help the movie seem more believable .

Conclusively , one could watch this movies just to get to know how and what happened with raj kundra in jail and how the internal society in the jail looks like .

After a long time saw a movie which showed how a celebrity udjusts in a jail by living , eating ,and doing everything what he can to survive his days inside and even understanding the pain of the prisoners in that conjusted area. It's kind of a lesson for the ppl living outside of that jail that what exactly prisoners go through and how they survive their day to day life inside it and ppl living outside are so privileged to be free. Hope some help should be sent to these jails for the ppl staying there by the ppl who are really able to help financially. Thank u for this lovely movie . Enjoyed it thoroughly.

UT69 is a well-executed dark comedy feature film offering a surprisingly sweet and fun peek into the detention system of citizens under trial in Mumbai through the brilliant lens of director, Shahnawaz Ali, who translates the experience across languages, classes, and barriers into a beautiful story about what really matters in life. In the sea of content we currently find ourselves in, Ali charters a worthwhile course for both his characters and audience walking a delicate line between cultural commentary and politics, and balancing his genre between comedy and tragedy. Definitely worth watching!

Watched this movie only beacasue i have started my youtube channel for movie reviews. Had no expectations so ever. First two days not single show could happen as there were no audience , at last was able to see this movie. And to my surprise i lilked the movie. I think first time , some celeb person experience in jail is played by the same person and that with emotion. Honestly raj kundra did very well. Even though he himself had gone through this, To potray charecters afterwards , its not easy. And raj kundra did very well. Though there is no any discussion about the case,courtroom drama , was decent movie. Generous 7.5/10💐👏
