द हंगरी

This movie is not for everyone. The direction of the movie is outstanding as the story portrayed feels real. Nasruddin shah has as always done a fantastic job and does justice to the charecter.

"Revenge is a dish best served cold". this proverb perfectly describes The Hungry, a violent drama based on the Shakespearian tragedy Titus Andronicus. Set in contemporary India somewhere on the outskirts of Delhi, it is a tale of two families - the Ahujas led by patriarch Tathagat (Naseer who steals every scene he is in) and the Joshis led by Tulsi (Tisca Chopra, relishing the role tailormade for her). The story which plays out over a couple of days around a wedding between Tathagat Ahuja's son and Tulsi grips you early on with a brutal murder within the first 10 minutes into the film. Terrific acting overall supported well by Neeraj Kabi, Sayoni Gupta, Antoni Aakeel. Technically it is great with the editing and the pacing almost perfect. Director Bornila does a swell job and this movie is not a bad time to pass 1.5 hours.

Pls dnt watch if u dnt like unrealistic dramas.

If u love acting, cast and the murder dramas , u are going to be amaged , jawdropping scenes, creative casting , director has done some amazing work , applaus and kudos for the entire team . Love u nassir sir and tissca mam that u guys are choosing some very extraordinary scripts.

There are numerous buyers/ audiences for Shakespeare's well- known tragic plays such as "King Lear," "Othello," "Macbeth," "Hamlet," and "Julius Caesar" and there is "Titus Andronicus" which is dubbed as the least impressive. Hell, not for me, it is quite absurd with glory gory dark revenge drama. I appreciate Bornila Chatterjee for choosing Shakespeare's least known tragedy in "The Hungry" and handling the complex subject with gore and care. It is an insane film, like a big weird mess but it's fascinating, the flow narrative is quite dark supported by the spectacle of the strong visuals and amazing cinematography. This is a rewarding piece of art, which will not satisfy the gorehounds but the arthouse fans. I have given this movie a 7 on 10, which it easily deserves. As for the acting, all the characters are tremendous, especially Tathagat (Naseeruddin Shah) and Tulsi (Tisca Chopra). Regardless, this is a required viewing to appreciate Borniala Chattejee for retelling an imperfect story with arresting emotional and aesthetic experience.

This movie could have been absolute Nail Biting Gem!! Provided you have your bollywood glasses On - This movie is simply mind throbbing. This movie is a must watch for people who loathe Bollywood , Hats off to an exciting attempt by Bornilla Chaterjee of introducing such dark concept to indian audience. Naseer saab's acting was the engine throughout. Mr. Ahuja - A character portrayal is everything in such movies, naseer saab develops such a beautiful character here who is the king in his own mind has his own fortress , a CHARISMATIC AND POWERFUL CHARACTER overall. Movie is obviously flawed , It has everything right with the plot , screenplay , story , but i think it really lacked some powerful dialogues that could have made a positive effect on its lagging screenplay. Also it couldnt create that nail biting curiosity which it could have with such a beautiful story and dark humor.

This Movie is absolutely fresh in bollywood , opened a doorway for many more to follow. Every child man and woman should go for this Asap. Must watch!
