Bhonsle

Makhija again did overwhelming job with his dark mind starting from opening showcase of movie Ganeshji getting ready for festival and on the other hand Bhonsle stripped offs his uniform as he is reluctantly ordered to retire shows the contrast between celebrations during Ganesh Chaturthi and the disquietude that exists in character Bhonsle till climax which is shot in bathroom with great cinematographic excellence. Most of the film is shot in Chawl of Mumbai which is raw and real actually creates the isolate experience while watching. Bajpayee's powerful performance with minimal dialogues is just beyond his talent and rest of the cast too did extremely well job. Movie uplifts the dark issue of migrants in Maharashtra without any extraneous drama.

Bhonsle is a commendable piece of art and it rightfully portrays the message. However, if you genuinely don't like art films or you just can't bear slow paced cinema, this is definitely not your cup of tea.

The film definitely holds its flaws but it also raises a few questions which seems to hold no answers. A few scenes invoke an imbalance in the film and ruins the chemistry with the audience forcing you to skip. But, sitting through those flaws is completely worth it.

The film is a commendable piece of art and it rightfully portrays the message. However, if you genuinely don't like art films or you just can't bear slow paced cinema, this is definitely not your cup of tea. But, for a change you could definitely try to make an exception for a unique film.

A cinematic masterpiece !! Manoj at its best and Rahul juvekar shines after sacred games ..... A bit slow but can be overlooked coz of a cinema canvassing. Such movies are loved by all cinema lovers. Gr8 experience

Be it any character Manoj Bajpayee pull off the role with perfection. Santosh Juvekar and Ipshita Chakraborty are also very good in the film. This is a very slow pace movie, that's why may be very few amount of people will watch it. This movie will remind you of 2016 short film Taandav in some moments. This type of movie need to be cherished by all.

Available on Sony LIV.

It is truly criminal that this tour de force performance from one of India's finest actors, Manoj Bajpayee took two years after its initial release in 2018 to get aired on OTT. It just goes to show the actor's sheer ability that even with minimal dialogues, Bajpayee manages to tell us a spellbinding story of anguish, loss and sorrow with his impeccable mannerisms and body language.

Santosh Javekar and Ipshita Chakraborty are also terrific in their side roles, ably complementing what is at its core, a pure Manoj Bajpayee show.

In Ganpat Bhonsle, Bajpayee has found a character that makes great use of his immense acting range, perfectly portraying the broken life of an unmarried, lonely police officer post-retirement. Bhonsle requires a patient watch due to its slow narration, but leaves you satisfied in the end purely due to the actor's gravitas in each scene.

Strictly for Bajpayee fans this one!
