Bhakshak

This is the real India OMG. Thank you Gauri Khan for producing such a realistic movie. The actors were excellent illiciting such reaction in me . I hope there are Indians who were upset at what is going on in Bihar and other states . What does the government do. Making railway lines better railways is no feat when you cannot look after your citizens. Thank you Ms Gauri for producing such a great and very much realistic movie.there is not much to mention in writing about this movie, please get your member of parliament to watch this movie and see what is going on in the Country of India. This is not a fiction but The FACT .Thank you Mr Pulkit for writing such a realistic move . May God Bless you and grant you a long productive life. May you feel better soon. I can write much more but his is so repulsive this is. Congratulations to the person who selected the actors to do this story.

Bhakshak, is streaming on Netflix and stars Bhumi Pednekar as a local journalist on a quest for justice against child abuse. The film boasts great performances and a potent, relevant message, but feels derivative and unoriginal in its execution.

Let's start with the positives. There are multiple stomach-churning sequences of child abuse throughout the film that successfully evoke feelings of disgust towards the vile, twisted villains. In particular, the display of sheer brutality during the opening sequence made my blood boil. All these elements culminate in a sense of satisfaction when justice is served in the final moments of the film.

The entire cast delivers top-notch performances. Bhumi Pednekar continues to show her versatility as an actor, Sanjay Mishra is a welcome comedic relief and Aditya Srivastava is the embodiment of true evil as the film's primary antagonist.

The primary shortcomings of the film lie in the overly preachy script that isn't as nuanced as the film requires it to be, and is fixated on reciting its underlying themes. Multiple scenes involve characters saying "Yahi to problem hai samaj mein....". The film's impact would have been greater had its message been delivered with more subtlety.

The motivations of characters in the film are also not quite clear. Certain character have abrupt changes of heart throughout the film that do not make much sense and merely serve to advance the plot.

Overall, Bhakshak is a well-acted film with a pertinent themes and is certainly recommended for your watchlist, but is not without its fair share of flaws.

Pulkit is a director of a different genre, we can understand by watching his "Bose: Death/Alive". He is a very brave director. In this film too, he showed that deadly brave direction.

He tried to find solutions to the burning problems in several parts of India. The director shook the society and the Indian system very hard.

The best part of the movie is the content and the script. Bhumi pednekar and Sanjay Mishra's acting has taken the movie to perfection. But streaming the movie was possible.

I highly recommend everyone to watch this movie based on the exploitation of poor and helpless girls.

My god! This was heavy, both in subject material and execution. But, despite being disturbing, these are the stories are meant to be told, not because this sort of stuff happened, but because we shouldn't have to be a mere spectator, rather we should demand answers from the authority. This film is a compelling tale of the importance and power of media, and if used correctly, it truly can act as a balance against the unchecked authority of the government. Loved it! This is a labour of love and everyone gave his heart and soul to this project. Extremely well written, superbly directed and brilliantly performed, this film about an investigative journalist sifting a case of sexual assault in an orphanage is a winner on all fronts. Films like these strengthen my belief in the fact that the Hindi film industry is still going strong, and isn't as toothless as claimed by some so-called elites (people who watch only 2 Bollywood films each year, that too of mostly terrible quality is deliberately selected).

Positive: The dialogues pack a powerful punch, delivering a strong message for society. Viewers can take away valuable lessons for their daily lives. The negative characters are portrayed excellently, with special commendation to Red Chillies for presenting such impactful content. The director has executed their role effectively, and Sanjay Mishra delivers a solid performance as always. Overall, it's a must-watch movie.

Negative: Unfortunately, the acting, particularly by the lead actress Bhumi, falls short and feels mismatched for the roles. Her performance comes across as dull and doesn't meet expectations. Additionally, the emotional aspect of the movie lacks depth, failing to connect with the audience as effectively as movies like Article 15 by Anubhav Sinha.
