Bandook

Bandook has bettered the Guns of Wasepur, in terms of storyline, realism and use of the cinematic language. The dialogs are minimalist and characters realistic. Only, downside I see, was the posh makeup of the character played by Manisha. Though she acted well, she could not pass- off as a village woman, due to her hair cut and groomed looks. Rest of all the characters well acted. Hats off to the Bandook team. The story moves at a fast pace. This movie may not be hit with the box office, as it lacks the typical Bollybood masala of raunchy songs (item songs as they call it in Bollywood), and fist fights to show-off the so called "Hero".

Aditya Om has given good story but maybe with less characters. Lochan yadav is played convincingly by newcomer Arshand Khan. The music score is also biggest surprise package. Altaf Raja is very grand in his comeback and should sing more in future. I loved Manisha kelkar bold scenes and also role of Aditya Om is played very convincingly. India needs more movies like Bandook. The dialogues are very true like in daily life in India. The progress of movie is good and I liked the climax. Aditya should have more fight scenes with hand. Characters in movie are lifelike and realistic. I hope movie is released with item song for us to enjoy. In theater public was enjoying the dialogues very much.

Must watch film. It shakes you up. There are technical issues but it's once in a generation film.Aditya Om take a bow. What direction and great acting too. Kudos to all the actors

I like crime movies and that was the reason I decided to watch this movie today. Its amazing that this film has almost no well known actors and yet every actor performed his role to perfection. Casting Director has done a wonderful job.

Great Diaglogues, great acting and of course great direction.

People who don't like crime movies or detest violence and profanity shouldn't waste their time with this title.

This movie is in the league of movies like "Gangs of Wasseypur", "Satya" etc.

Positives: Story, Direction, Acting, Dialogues, Music. Negatives: Violence and Profanity (But then what do you expect from a crime movie)

Happy Watching !

I was in my intermediate and i had seen the posters of Bandook. I retreating from my school with my school bag. I went to watch this film. I firmly believe the realistic storytelling and simplicity came back in hindi cinema with this film after ages.
