I will keep my review short and effective. This is worth viewing. It us not one of the perfect pieces of work but it did hold its ground for me. Enjoyed it. The action sequences are well defined. The story line is coherent. It does address some of today's issues in it's own way. The performance of the protagonist within given constraints is commendable. This is binge worthy. The viewer is engaged from the beginning. What falls short in screenplay is made better in the making and performances of the cast. Here fantasy and friction meet the thrill. If you are an avid binge watcher, don't miss this.
Do not let Anshuman Jha's innocent demeanor deceive you. He is a normal delivery boy during the day, but at night, he transforms into an animal vigilante. If he finds someone tormenting animals, especially dogs, he becomes extremely violent and incapacitates the abuser. He also befriends a hyena which saves his life in the climax. Ridhi Dogra is a sincere cop who is on his trail. Paresh Pahuja is a sophisticated businessman who is involved in the illegal animal trade. #Lakadbaggha is a must watch for those who keep yelling ''bollywood does not experiment with subjects''. Performances are outstanding. The action sequences are well choreographed. Rating 3.5/5.
We need to encourage these movies because they have some messages that we overlook or we don't care about. The audience and their taste is now changing and hopefully people will accept these kind of contents with more welcoming manner. I would like to encourage the director, producer and the actors and everyone associated with this project to continue to work on projects like these. I can understand that the money is less however the content is pure and authentic. Giving 9 starts and keeping one star so you guys have room to do even better and grow. There are a lot more contents and issues that people needs to be aware of. Cheers!
"Lakadbhagga" presents an interesting concept centering around a vigilante with a mission to protect street dogs. It's a distinctive storyline that sets the film apart. Yet, the execution and the cast's performance are a mixed bag, diminishing the overall impact of the film.
Anshuman Jha, who is given the responsibility to lead the film, disappointingly delivers a less than satisfactory performance. As the vigilante, the character demanded a stronger, more convincing portrayal, which unfortunately Jha falls short of delivering.
On the flip side, Riddhi Dogra is the film's saving grace. Continuing her outstanding performances from her TV Series "Asur", she brings an exceptional depth to her role in "Lakadbhagga". Dogra demonstrates her versatility and ability to excel in a variety of roles, making a strong case for her to be featured in more mainstream Bollywood films.
The direction of the film leaves much to be desired. It fails to do justice to the unique premise and doesn't manage to evoke the intended emotional resonance. The setup in Calcutta, while rich in cultural heritage, seems misplaced for the context of the film. It doesn't add much value to the storyline and instead ends up feeling forced and inauthentic.
Overall, "Lakadbhagga" is a film with a promising premise, bolstered by a remarkable performance from Riddhi Dogra. However, it stumbles due to a weak lead performance by Anshuman Jha, lackluster direction, and a mismatched setting. It's a commendable effort that falls just short of delivering a fulfilling cinematic experience. If you are a fan of Riddhi Dogra, "Lakadbhagga" is worth a watch for her performance alone.

Lakdabagga is an important film, I think this film didn't get the it should have. Anshuman (Arjun) has done a great job, fight sequence was too classy , akshara and his brother. Akshara and her brother also did a good job. I hope to watch the second part of this film soon.
The concept of the film was very clear and the casting of the film was also accurate, wanted to see more of Arjun's father's character. The location of the film was good and the background music of the film was quite melodious, matching with the story of the film.
Congratulations to the entire team of Lakdbagga. I hope to see the second part of this film soon.
