'Gangubai Kathiawadi': is underwhelming, except for Alia Bhatt

‘Gangubai Kathiawadi’: is underwhelming, except for Alia Bhatt

In what is surely an unintended cinematic irony, the fascinating and against-all-odds story of Ganga Harjeevandas gets an underwhelming treatment in the hands of the helmer of gigantic canvas unfurler, Sanjay Leela Bhansali (and his titular character’s agency gets diluted, thanks to two gentlemen). Not that I was expecting a spectacle like his Padmaavat or Bajirao Mastani, both of which reveled…

Blog 3- Gangubai Kathiawadi Film Review

Movie Review Blog- Gangubai Kathiawadi.

A film that not only tells us a beautiful journey but also alluringly displays the idea of equality.

Sanjay Leela Bhansali is renowned for creating expansive universes for his movies, some of which draw influence from actual events and immerse the audience in incredibly realistic settings. Bhansali uses the same sensibility in Gangubai Kathiawadi to tell a tale that is solidly grounded in the actual world and recent events. The movie nonetheless succeeds in reaching equal levels of presentation and storyline.

The movie Gangubai depicts the rise of the titular Mafia queen, played by Alia Bhatt, through the world of prostitution in the 1960s in the Mumbai neighbourhood of Kamathipura. Despite several obstacles, Gangubai continued to fight for women's rights in her community, supporting sex workers in political rallies, and more.

Alia Bhatt has evolved rapidly through the ranks in the field and made a name for herself as a versatile performer by accepting difficult roles that many people may not have anticipated she would accept. Bhatt has once again done Gangubai's portrayal, which is perhaps one of her most vulnerable yet,I mostly observed the performer and seldom observed her really engrossing herself in the role she was playing, particularly in the later stages of Gangu's life when she was supposed to have a tougher demeanour. Even though Alia steals the show in this instance, a particular mention should be made to Ajay Devgn's cameo as Rahim Lala, whose little screen time is expertly handled to mentor a young Gangu in her formative years. I was shocked to learn that Jim Sarbh and Vijay Raaz completed the cast after going into the movie without having seen it, and Shantanu Maheshwari made his feature film debut in a quiet but endearing role. Raaz only makes brief appearances, initially serving as a contrast to Gangu's aspirations to unify the entire neighbourhood, but that conflict is resolved so quickly that it merely feels like filler at the conclusion. The remaining actors have sufficient screen time.

The Kamathipura neighbourhood is small, yet that doesn't stop the filmmakers from creating a convincing world within its walls over the period of 154 minutes.While the film is full of dramatic moments, some might appear to be a little pandering, with sequences falling short of Gangu directly gazing at the camera while giving her words. But that's just my opinion, as the majority of the film is well-executed. The film is currently available on Netflix. It is recommended for sure if you want the all in one experience of the surreal world of brilliant performances,  Melodious music and a thrilling yet enduring storyline.
