Gurgaon

A good script good direction tight screenplay best of the artist only Ragni (sasti tapsee pannu) was not upto the mark and title of the film must be different .

Keep up good work

1st half was quite good which lays down the story but 2nd half is predictable.Very good performances by actors.BGM was quite irritating some time

Despite a cliched storyline, director has picturised the story beautifully. . In a subtle way, it has also pointed out the issue of female infanticide. .

First things First - To be honest for people who haven't lived in Gurgaon might feel that this is what Gurgaon is .. hot headed, rowdy, instilling some sort of fear in you all the time .. well, this is where I am in a fix .. because Gurgaon is definitely this when you read or hear about it .. and Gurgaon is not that when you live and work in here. The layman is busy earning the daily bread and is just unaffected from hooliganism and all ..

Now to the 2nd thing - The problem started when the farmers literally became rich overnight .. filthy rich by the way, not just casual rich .. The native of Haryana had always been worst when it came to things like girl child, honor caste systems and no remorse come what may, among 100 other things which are not good for a healthy society. With such notions give a person unattainable wealth .. this is what happens ..

Now to the movie :) well the movie in itself is alright .. I wouldn't call it gripping because somehow things were not stitched together really well .. there were moments where you feel that it wasn't necessary .. and those moments are highlights by the way .. The moments were merely added to show the lawlessness about Gurgaon and had nothing to do with the story line. Also, the eeriness was kinda forced .. you would know in the moment what is going to happen ..

So, Gurgaon as a movie might depict Gurgaon but only a smallish subset of Gurgaon which has little or nothing to do in the life of a layman. So .. it is unwise to say that Gurgaon is what Gurgaon is .. No .. it is about this particular story and how it is projected on screen. And when it comes to this .. I think the movie was alright .. and when it is streaming on netflix these days .. better see it than not. :)

Screenplay - 8.5/10 - Good use of time period and characters . However, the time jump in some scenes are confusing.

Storyline - 5/10 Unwanted characters and scenes like Sophie and the club scene, the govt official and the hunting scenes could have been totally avoided. So was the murder of elder brother of Pankaj Tripathi's character. Preeto calling her brother to pick her up despite knowing that he was behind the kidnapping looks unrealistic for a French educated modern girl.

Acting - 10/10.

Overall- Could have been a very good movie if the storyline could have been more tight and realistic.
