  • Gulaal: Finding the Mole beneath the Mountain
    Gulaal starts with a rabble-rousing speech from Dukey Bana (Kay Kay Menon). Bana complains of treachery at the hands of the post-Independence Indian governments. The Rajput kings gave up their estates and royalties in support of a united India and in the process lost both power and wealth. And now the same political class that took away their powers is mismanaging the...

  • Gulaal : Why It Will Not Do Well
    I watched Gulaal on the very first day it released and I wrote a review as well. I put-up one of the first reviews of the movie on PFC, which was not my reaction or some heartfelt writing but just the basic plot-points and the characterisation. The review can be found here. I received quite a few feedbacks stating that I gave away too much, though I would not like to believe...

  • Gulaal — Anurag isn’t God, he ain’t Godard either
    iView Author: Salik Shah (New Delhi, India) Email: withheld Gulaal — Anurag isn’t God, he ain’t Godard either Everyone is fighting his own battle. The world is selfish. I got it. Well, how was the film? Did I like it? A 15-minute conversation with the auto wala who dropped me home was better than the film. Refreshing. While I walked toward my home...

  • Gulaal – The Beginning Of The End
    I have just returned after watching this movie and I am spell-bound. The movie was fantastic; a genius is definitely at work and that makes me happy that we can look forward to more such mature movies for a mature audience by a mature film-maker, Anurag Kashyap. I will not call the film multi-layered, because that has become a cliche. Instead, let me just say that the...

  • Gulaal Review- Indian cinema is freed.
    I watched Milk and Revolutionary Road over the last weekend. From the first scene to the last, Milk looked like one of those timeless movies which even while you are watching, you know is landmark. I watched Revolutionary Road the very next day. On the basis of personal experiences, the movie was so relatable that it disturbed me immensely. It was such an assault, it took...

No, I am not hailing him for his recent, much talked about Dev D. It is a past now. This is for one of the most talented film makers of Indian cinema who casted his spell in GULAAL! Those who think Dev D was his best, look...

  • Gulaal will blow you up!
    Gulaal Movie Review Gulaal is mind blowing. And I am not saying it just because it is fashionable to do so about anything to do with Anurag Kashyap on PFC! Anurag had told the media during his recent Delhi visit (to promote Specials@10 on Sony Entertainment Television) that Gulaal is his “angriest” film. That anger seeps through every frame of the film, even...

I mean, in the Hindi Cinema ‘geet’ format? Just an off-the-cuff guess would be at least 30-years ago…and add...

  • Gulaal – a colourful canvas of poetic expressions
    (Long post. There are a lot of comparisons with things(poems, films, songs) that came to my mind first time I listened to the songs and they might appear strange/surprising to some people. The lyrics given below are not complete.) I have been looking forward to Gulaal songs for so long. More than Dev D, more than any other film this year I have been waiting for Gulaal...

  • Gulaal Music Review : Love…Power…Revolution…
    (This music review is co-authored by Amanda Sodhi & Tushar Shukla) (DISCLAIMER : The reviewers have attempted to quote the lyrics from the album to the best of their efforts, however there might be errors, and any suggested rectifications are welcome.) Two things are always guaranteed with Anurag Kashyap’s films—innovation and excellent music. While Dev...
