Featured review
To start off,the movie is based during the british period about 150 years ago. The way they set their stage is top notch, i mean i really felt like i was watching a film which is during the British era,the costume design,the lighting,objects,locations,and the characters were just class! As this movie is based on a true story which happened at that time,actors played their role impeccably. Gheto music is sooo goood, it's super soothing to listen to.
Film is about a gheto boy(basically a teen dancer),who basically entertains a zamindar during the British rule. The movie is extremely sad as you get to see how low can a human go for hunger and money. Everything was great and realistic but maybe it's me because i felt confused at the ending. Ending was predictable but i don't know what their message was actually.
Other than that a great film overall since it's a musical drama,so you'll go through a mixture of emotions. Glad to see the gheto boy culture getting diminished but terrible to have lost a great musical heritage. Worth a watch for sure!
