Bheed

United We Stand Divided We Fall-Is the message which this film wants to convey. If we are united we Are 'Civilized Society' If we Divide we are 'Bheed'. The problem with the Indian society is classism and casteism. If we unite together we can bring down any problem heading our way. Us Indians are naive and hence are often exploited by the powerful people as they divide and rule us(whether it were Mughals, Britishers, Despotic Government) Quite ENOUGH, now lets talk about the film.

The film showcases How people from different communities and caste unite together to fight system which is causing them Trouble. ALL THE ACTORS HAVE DONE COMMENDABLE JOB. Film has some loose plots. But the message is very clear. The film shouldn't have been banned. Could've been proved an eye opener to the blind Devouts.

Bheed

Anubhav sinha after mulk, article 15 and thappad expectations were set high, with bheed he somehow manages to deliver what audience will appreciate.

Movie could have been better but this dosen't mean it fallen short anywhere.

Bheed manages to touch one's heart & soul, feel what our migrant brothers and sisters went through when we went into lockdown.

This movie showcases the frustration, fear, care, anger which makes you feel what I would have done if I was locked in such a situation.

Every emotion was captured perfectly in this movie be it, How the Govt just ignored it's own people, at a time when the common people wanted them the most.

Or How people managed and survived with each others help, this is what makes true India.

Rajkumar rao, Pankaj Kapoor, Rana, Bhumu, Dia, Virendra & many more everyone gave excellent performance, proper casting is the added plus point and strength of this movie.

Not a great one but very near to it.

A must watch movie to get the feel of what actually happened during that difficult time.

BHEED is a slow, intense, unrelenting, thought-provoking, and above all, a CHALLENGING film.

It sets itself apart from other COVID-19 dramas by also being an effective contained thriller set in a secluded police checkpoint near a mall.

Pankaj Kapur, Rajkumar Rao and Bhumi Pednekar give some of their best performances to date in this film.

BHEED is indeed a slow burn, and will not appeal to everyone. Do not expect a conventional, action-heavy thriller from this movie. BHEED shows the harrowing real, but unseen stories of the pandemic, the ones that many of us had turned a blind eye to.

I do have one criticism of BHEED - some of its stories (particularly the one about the divorced mother) were not developed enough to have any lasting emotional impact.

This is a film about a dark aspect of our (India's) society, which came to light during Corona lockdown of March 2020.

The film weaves through web of the class-caste, professional privileges of the characters in the film. It brings in front of us the crisis of migrant workers attempting to return to their villages.

They left villages in search of livelihood to the city, the city, they and many of us, considered our to be our home. But during the lockdown, cities were least concerned about the workers who make city a comfortable space for living.

This film is not for entertainment. It is for making the viewer question, their own system of rights, justice, privileges and their compromised existence.

This is a black and white film, which symbolically represents the ways of thinking and behaviour, dating back to the era of films in black and white, a long time ago.

The ways of our thinking are old, outdated and static. The use of black and white filmography clearly brings this out.

This film doesn't give you any shocking images, neither it gives you any climax. But it will make every sensitive person to sit through the film, without giving them a room for thinking anything else than what they see in the film.

Characters in the film are very real, they represent various sections of the caledioscope that Indian society is in the 21st century.

Very good dialogues, acting and direction.

Films that make you uncomfortable, for all the right reasons, are few and far between. That hold a mirror and show you the kind of society that you are and the possibilities of what you can chose to become. That don't seem to be made with intent of commercial success, but with an intent of striking at the conscience. Such films need to be celebrated.

Bheed is one such endeavour. It is set in the initial days of the first lockdown, during March- april of 2020 and follows the action at an interstate checkpost, across which all movement, of vehicles as well as of humans has been prohibited.

It intermixes this with sometime subtle and sometimes explicit commentary on the casteist as well as communal mindset along with class- divide.

Rajkumar Rao is sensational. Almost oscar worthy. So is Pankaj Kapoor.

Anubhav Sinha gets back in form, after the ordinary Anek. This is amongst his top films, right up there with Mulk and Thappad. There are multiple scenes that show his obvious political leanings, but he does up a fabulous job with the tough subject.

Mandatory watch.
