This is exactly the movie to epitomize what a director can give us viewers a gift!
I have not been a fan of nandita das as a director, actor yes. This movie will very pleasantly eat my words. Again director is the key. Even an untrained nobody like me can work in your film since you are there.
I believe that KS is a still a soft mud earthen pot that you can still shape. He is very smart and he is the example what street smart means! He used it to his advantage and truly deserves what he has achieved!
ND: is a great eye for talent and how to work producers to fund the movie. Well ma'am I had a crush on you and still left my bias away from this review!
Great watch Ma'am!

The movie depicts the life of a lower middle-class man and the challenges he faces in his day to day life and work. It is not just about food delivery guys but any lower middle-class Indian. I am sure some middle middle-class Indians can also relate it with their experiences, especially during or after pandemic.
I guess almost every working Indian would be able to see themselves somewhere in the movie.
The movie could be too realistic to digest for some people, while some people would fail to connect with the character probably because they haven't faced same issues in their lives.
Hence, I do not recommend the movie to those who are looking for thrill, entertainment or to escape reality.
I liked the movie and want to watch similar realistic movies with depth.
Thanks.

Nandita Das' latest directorial venture, Zwigato, is a movie that tells the story of a man who becomes a delivery boy to make ends meet after losing his job during the pandemic. Kapil Sharma's performance as the protagonist is remarkable, and he does an excellent job of portraying the struggles and hardships of a middle-class delivery boy.
The movie is a tribute to the working-class people who bear the burden of running our cities while dealing with an ongoing employment crisis, inflation, and social and gender justice. It is a silent recognition and request to respect and empathize with an invisible class of workers.
Shahana Goswami's portrayal of the silent support that women provide as equal pillars of a simple family is noteworthy, adding a layer of subtlety to the movie's message. The film is slow-paced, but it is in those slow mundane moments that we see how a working-class person battles and parallelly lives with complicated overarching issues of religion, class, and caste.
Zwigato is a movie that dwells on the positive side of contemporary cinema, and the performances by the cast are exceptional. Kapil Sharma's performance is praiseworthy, and it is entirely different from his typical persona as a comedian. The emotions that he portrays are authentic and will leave a lasting impression on the viewer.
The beauty of this movie lies in its cinematography. The frames are raw in nature and showcase a realistic depiction of a delivery boy's life. The background music is melodic and could have been used more significantly.
However, the screenplay is the real culprit that cuts the score of the movie. It does not seem like a long story but many anecdotes joint together to serve an episodic type of content. Nevertheless, the subtle humor that is spread in these joints contributes the most in saving the flaws.
Overall, Zwigato is an emotional movie that touches the heart and soul of the viewer. It is a message in itself and will make the viewers realize how often they are rude and inhumane with these delivery persons who work hard but do not earn much. It is a must-watch for those who want to understand the life of a delivery boy and respect them for their hard work. I would rate this movie 7 out of 10, and I recommend it to everyone.

Stunning, awesome,great, mzedar, jhakkas,
Zwigato is movie made in beautiful city of and depicts what an ordinary family faces in the post-pandemic world. Kapil Sharm, who rose to prominence due to his comic timing, will play a serious role in the film. MUST Watch movie starring kapil sharma,Shahana Goswami.

Respect for delivery persons after watching this movie. Nandita Das has done incredible job just by thinking of a movie like this. Rest of the work has been done with pure class by Kapil . I was a great fan of his comedy but had never imagined that he can also act so well. What an all rounder he is... I mean singing,standup, acting everything. Inhuman at his level.
Direction is also great. The depiction of life of a common man from lower class is exact and incredible. Nothing in this movie is off. You are definitely going to get emotional after watching this movie. Also you will never disrespect any delivery boy ever.
