Lucky Baskhar

Lucky Baskhar

An intriguing drama brilliantly conveying how money can change the life of an Indian middle class common man.

The plot of the story revolves around Baskhar,a bank cashier on how he cleverly uses the public money in the bank and how he takes advantage of the fraudulent financial scams in the country.

Exceptional story telling by Venky Atluri through a tight bound screenplay keeping the audience hooked to the screen. The first half of the movie portrays the minor crimes in the financial sector and the latter half shows how shallow the financial scams can affect the economy.

Venky has brewed family emotions, responsibilities and burdens of a middle class salaried man brilliantly to the story and gives the viewers a better insight visually on how money can be differentiated both as a need and desire.

Hats off to Venky & team for the phenomenal casting in the movie especially the characters in the bank premises giving avenues for their performances. DQ has spectacularly played the role of Bhaskar and his character arc is evident through distinct layers across the movie. Lucky Baskhar will be marked as one of the best performances in his filmography. Impressive performances by Meenakshi Choudhary,Sachin Khedekar & Ramki.

Splendid cinematography by Nimish Ravi marks his name in the Telugu industry and accurate cuts on the editing table by Navin Nooli gives a visual delight to the audience. Good music & BGM's by G V Prakash Kumar and the brilliant setting of the Mumbai streets and the bank by Benglann is worth mentioning.

A must watch movie in theatres for an engaging and entertaining show by Venky & DQ.

Rating - 4/5.

If there are massy movies in the Telugu industry, there are also movies like this one that, for a change, arrest you in your seat.

A simple cashier working at a bank starts rolling money into risky investment schemes, only to get addicted to it. How his life gets embroiled in the world of money laundering while managing his family forms the crux of the story.

Set in the 90s, the tale runs parallel to the Harshad Mehta era, which lends credibility to its fictional portrayal. The story balances emotions and financial intricacies in the right measure. What works best is that the movie is written in such a simple manner that, even without spoon-feeding, viewers can fully grasp the financial terms. With all the fraudulent acts the lead attempts to pull off, you are bound to sit on the edge of your seat with bated breath. The narrative takes you on a rollercoaster ride of emotions, navigating the character's highs and lows.

Dulquer Salmaan completely embodies the character. This simple-looking yet layered role is made believable through his honest portrayal. For the superstar that he is and given his relatively young age, it is commendable how he adapts to playing an older man with grey hair and a young child. Meenakshi Chaudhary, despite limited screen time, provides solid support. Every small or big character plays their part brilliantly.

To recreate the 90s, the art department has done a commendable job, making the setting look authentic. The BGM and songs enhance the overall aura of the film. The climactic twist is something you won't see coming, and it works big time. Special mention must go to the costume designer for making Venky Alturi's world feel real.

This film truly deserves your time, and you can be sure that you will be thoroughly entertained. It's a movie with a strong plot, solid performances, and thrilling moments-everything you've been looking for.

My Overall Rating 8/10.

Lucky Bhaskar is an engaging and heartwarming cinematic experience that strikes a fine balance between humor, drama, and emotion. Directed with flair and featuring a charismatic lead performance, the movie keeps you entertained from start to finish.

The story revolves around Bhaskar, a charming yet flawed underdog whose journey through unexpected twists is both relatable and inspiring. The screenplay is tight, with witty dialogues that often catch you off guard. The humor feels natural, and the emotional beats hit just the right notes without feeling overly sentimental.

The performances are stellar, particularly by the lead actor, who brings life to Bhaskar's character with impeccable comic timing and subtle emotional depth. The supporting cast is equally commendable, adding richness to the story. The chemistry between the characters is palpable, making their relationships feel authentic.

The direction deserves special mention for seamlessly blending lighthearted moments with profound themes about self-discovery, resilience, and the meaning of "luck." The cinematography captures the essence of the film's vibrant settings, while the music complements the narrative beautifully.

However, the film isn't without its flaws. A couple of plot points feel predictable, and the pacing drags slightly in the second half. But these are minor hiccups in an otherwise delightful movie.

Overall, Lucky Bhaskar is a feel-good entertainer with a meaningful core. It's a movie that will make you laugh, tug at your heartstrings, and leave you with a smile. Highly recommended for those who enjoy a mix of comedy, drama, and an uplifting story.
