Dedh Bigha Zameen

Dedh bigha zameen is a family drama film directed by pulkit.

The writing on this film is very good. The plot is nit new to us, but the way the characters and the events take place slowly gives us the time to contemplate about the condition of middle class in this society. This is a highly social and culturally rooted film. The hinterlands of UP is authentically set up. The performances by the cast is commendable. Pratik gandhi is superb as the bread earner of the family. His expressions are tangible andhis distress is clearly felt. The rest of the cast is good. But the problem is that the emotions are off. Nothing can be felt for the characters. The events are taking place one by one but not one iota of emotion is felt. We have sympathy for them, but nothing more than that. The music is good, the songs are melodious and soothing. See, this is a highly real film, with little to no over drama. It portrays how a middle class person sees the world around him, everybody is as nice as him, as humble as him.

The movie has a unique approach to showcasing how land encroachment happens and its impact on individuals and families.

The movie consistently stressed the pain and hardship a common man endures in seeking justice and his rights, which affected the viewers deeply.

I would rate it 8/10. The movie's ending did not do justice to the whole story. I believe the ending shows elements of lazy writing and direction. This movie could have been better if more effort had been put into the ending rather than presenting a pessimistic conclusion that disappoints the audience.

Overall, the movie is engaging and takes the audience on an emotional roller coaster. Pratik Gandhi did a fabulous job acting as a common helpless man.

Acting: 10/10 Casting: 10/10 Direction: 7/10 Story: 6.5/10

Final conclusion: This movie had great potential. It's a one-time watch, and I recommend the audience to watch it.

A character in a situation. As the story progresses the character becomes stronger, naivity goes off and is ready to fight. Apart from the climax, there's many issues like dowry, girl getting married off early, incompetent bridegroom, all glorified, for no reason. Apart from a common man's story, there's no takeaway.

All actors have done their roles pretty well. Khusalli Kumar could have easily done better with less make up. Milieu and setup looks good, director has done everything right, except the script.

Prateek Gandhi is getting stronger with every film and carries the film from beginning to end. All in all, a one time watch, with disappointment.

"Dedh Bigha Zameen," directed by Pulkit, stars Pratik Gandhi as Anil Singh, a resilient man embroiled in a grueling struggle against corruption after his family's property is wrongfully seized. This intense drama delves deeper into the lives affected, featuring Khushali Kumar as Anil's supportive wife, fighting societal and political adversity together. Their journey through legal battles and moral challenges paints a vivid picture of the devastating impacts of greed and injustice. The film's poignant ending highlights the stark reality and sacrifices involved in challenging deep-rooted corruption.

The plot of the movie is straight. They didn't include any melodrama which shows in Many of the bollywood movies. Many people gave their suggestions that the ending was not right cause actor is died but it's true in reality and many people trouble with this issue specially who is underprivileged or powerless. If you visit the states like Bihar, UP, Jharkhand and many rural areas of the states, you will see the same thing. It's a harsh reality. Anyone give any suggestions or reviews but the concept is good that is why I really liked the movie. I think bollywood should make movies like this if they shows the reality.
