The city’s by lanes with fallen hopes and crushed dreams conjure a world of their own with puppeteers and ramshackle Mushiaras that still happen. As the last shots looms over empty havelis, you don’t want to let go of the characters you have connected so deeply with. All you want is to tell them that things will be alright and maybe they will.
Gulabo Sitabo is not a typical Bollywood movie experience. It is not bustling with melodrama or dancing. This movie has a soul and the director beautifully manages to bring that into the screen. Gulabo Sitabo certainly lost some of its opulence because of it’s digital release on ‘Amazon Prime’ Nevertheless it’s character study and unfussy consonance makes ‘Gulabo Sitabo’ worth watching on any platform it is available.
So here is to Hope, Humour and Good Cinema.
