Haddi

The film starts off with a confusing plot line, the film does not grip the audience very well, there is very little in the name of masala, nawaz udin sidiqies acting is the only saving grace towards the entire movie, the direction is also poor with haphazard time leaps & confusing fights among the characters. The title of the film also makes no sense till the ending is close by. The villian has a sinister look to him and has no original draw other than that. The film feels like as if hijras where thrown deeply into the mix with no purpose in mind. I was all set for a gory thriller but the film does very little to promote graphic scenes that can be called masala.

Rating 6 this movie only the great performance of Nawazudin .. movie has no story line neither well directed ....Mr. Siddiqui gave his best but it was not enough I guess . Watched this movie only for Nawazudin . As I read few reviews here which has a point that as a great actor Mr. Siddiqui should chose his roles for movies or series very carefully . This movie is just a waste of his talents and waste of viewers time .

Hope for something good to watch more of Mr. Siddiqui ... Dont waste your time watching this ...... I guess series Taali came out same time which collasped this movie and talent.

The makers have titled the movie haadi (bone) but the movie is totally bone less

The content is about revenge of a transgender whose entire world was destroyed by a politician for a land cause the execution was dull thus making the movie uninteresting and heavy on mind due to lot of violence.

Anurag was shockingly good Nawaz was little more and loud than required

Bad luck for this movie is taali series on transgender was already released though the content was different but people compare them.

I watched only for nawaz and apologise for bad review as I expected a lot and will keep expecting from the team to deliver a better quality product.

I wish to appreciate Nawazuddin Siddiqui for his amazing performance. The movie shows its characterisation, plot, action in a very subtle way. You'll definitely love and praise the character of Arika in this movie. Also, you'll love Nawajuddin in action. His dialogue is impressive: "Main Nahin Marta".

Each and every character from the movie has performed very well and hence deserves our appreciation. This movie shows the life of 3rd gender and the way the society devalues it. The song Beparwa is also very good and suits all the takes throughout the movie. Nawajuddin's acting performance in all forms is impressive and praiseworthy.

Admya Bhalla and director Akshat Ajay Sharma collaborated on the film, and it commendably avoids delving into the sensitive topic of eunuch rights or portraying them as helpless. It treats its characters with care while delivering a potent message against those who pose a threat.

However, the frequent shifts between the past and present weaken the story. The film starts with a flurry of events and names, making it challenging to follow. Viewers must commit to memory, but as the plot unfolds, the characters gradually become more recognizable.

Just as the story gains momentum, it meanders among inconsequential characters. The narrative advances for several months leading up to the climax, yet it fails to explore the significant transformation of Bone as he establishes his own party.

This leaves numerous unanswered questions in the film's conclusion, as the editing lacks cohesion. Nonetheless, the film excels in depicting the beautifully portrayed love story between Irrfan and Haddi.

Nawazuddin Siddiqui, known for his experimental roles, continues to impress with his portrayal of a transgender woman, demonstrating a deep understanding of her mannerisms and speech.

The emotional impact when Haddi's family reacts to Pramod's death through clapping is both poignant and heart-wrenching. Saurabh Sachdeva's performance as Inder feels authentic from the very beginning.

Anurag Kashyap falls short in his negative role, with repetitive facial expressions throughout. Ila Arun as Revathi Amma and Mohammad Zeeshan Ayub as Irrfan have limited screen time and incomplete character development. The song "Beparda" aptly suits the film's context.
