Patchy Chase

Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar. Dibakar Banerjee. 2021. Hindi

Just like his earlier films, here also Dibakar tried to critique on a fiery national issue with keeping the main story in forefront. In SAPF, he tried to coat a chase screenplay while commenting on virility, affluence and voracity. But somehow here the main story is not exceptionally fetching and stimulating. The lead characters have no character depth/backstory or even cause. Even though Arjun Kapoor was convincing in his role as Pinky, the film had hardly anything to offer. The film is very slow for a chase genre and has patchy pace in the second half. Probably Dibakar's weakest film till date.

score 6/10
