Streaming Guide: Vishal Bhardwaj movies

Vishal Bhardwaj treated the kids in his story as real characters and not a device to introduce cute moments. Shabana Azmi aced her role of a witch and Shweta Basu Prasad was brilliant as a pair of twin sisters - the cute one with a lisp, Munni, and the hell-raising bully, Chunni. She grabbed the National Award for Best Child Artist for the film. One of the characters was called Mughal-E-Azam and by the end, the film commented on the widespread superstition and blind faith in witchcraft in Indian villages. After watching Makdee, you might find yourself randomly singing, 'O papad waale, panga na le'.

Tabu's Nimmi as the lonely mistress of don Abbaji (Pankaj Kapur) who seduces Maqbool (Irrfan Khan) into a web of murder, lust for power and greed, came as a revelation to the cine lovers.

Streaming Guide Gulzar Anurag Kashyap Hrithik Roshan Priyanka Chopra Imtiaz Ali Streaming on: Netflix Cast: Priyanka Chopra, Shahid Kapoor Kaminey is a story of a rivalry between twin brothers, played by Shahid Kapoor, who suffer from a distinctive speech impediment. One of them lisps and other stutters. Priyanka Chopra essays the role of Sweety, a Maharashtrian girl, who is the love interest of one of the twins. The music of Kaminey became a rage and for the longest time after the film's release, people attempted to replace 's' with an 'f' in their speech. Streaming on: Netflix Cast: Priyanka Chopra, Neil Nitin Mukesh, John Abraham, Irrfan Khan After The Blue Umbrella, Vishal Bhardwaj adapted another Ruskin Bond story. His 2011 release was based on Bond's short story 'Susanna's Seven Husbands' in which a woman's string of spouses die suspiciously. Indian Express' film critic Shubhra Gupta, in her review of 7 Khoon Maaf, wrote, 'Saat Khoon Maaf lives up to its premise for most of the film, before it pulls up short, well ahead of a satisfactory conclusion.' Streaming on: Netflix Cast: Shahid Kapoor, Tabu, Shraddha Kapoor, Kay Kay Menon Not just one, there are several reasons to watch this film from Vishal Bhardwaj's brand of cinema. From its lead actors, Tabu and Shahid Kapoor to its screenplay and direction, everything proved Haider as one of the finest films of Bhardwaj. An adaptation of William Shakespeare's Hamlet, Haider was set in Kashmir of 1995. It was a story of a young boy Haider who returns from his university in Aligarh to look for his disappeared father Dr Hilaal Meer (Narendra Jha) after being accused of harbouring a militant. The film grabbed five National Awards, Best Screenplay, Best Music Direction, Best Male Playback Singer, Best Choreography and Best Costume Design. Streaming on: Netflix Cast: Saif Ali Khan, Kangana Ranaut, Shahid Kapoor Rangoon, set in the pre-independence era, has a love triangle between its lead characters, played by Kangana Ranaut, Saif Ali Khan and Shahid Kapoor, at the centre of its narrative. According to the critics, one of the two good things about the film was Kangana's performance as Julia, which held stark resemblance to 1930s stunt actor Nadia. The other was Vishal Bhardwaj's attention to detail in creating the 1940s India on the 70mm screen. Streaming on: Amazon Prime Video Cast: Sanya Malhotra, Sunil Grover, Radhika Madan, Vijay Raaz Adapted from Charan Singh Pathik's short story Do Behenein, Pataakha is the story of two sisters, Chutki (Sanya Malhotra) and Badki (Radhika Madan) who are always at war with each other. Both of them run away from their homes to marry men of their choice but destiny brings them together yet again. It turns out that the men they had married are brothers. Bhardwaj's mastery of sticking to the theme and setting of his film throughout comes through the pitch-perfect dialogues. In her review, film critic Shubhra Gupta had written, 'Vishal Bhardwaj's Pataakha, based on Charan Singh Pathik's short story Do Behnein, has managed to pull off a rousing parable. Bharadwaj, who has also written the film, doesn't waste a second in centre-staging the two sisters Badki Champa (Madan) and Chutki Genda (Malhotra) and their animosity. This is a wonderful ensemble cast.' DailyhuntDisclaimer: This story is auto-aggregated by a computer program and has not been created or edited by Dailyhunt.
