Ghoomketu (2020)
6/10
5 Out of 10, But 1 Star Extra For The Performance By Ila Arun as "Santo Bua"
22 May 2020
2014's project being released in 2020 has obviously & already lost its charm as things have changed since then. The movie is surely struggling when it comes to its sensibility. Apart form that the screenplay is scattered and seems very disjointed followed by very poor & I repeat very very poor editing. Despite going all wrong the performances by the seasoned casts is just watch worthy, undoubtedly the star of the movie is Ila Arun aka Santo Bua she was sympathetic, funny and totally natural hitting the bulls eye. Nawazuddin as Ghoomketu, A not so young aspiring writer struggling & exploring Bollywood, writing and narrating different genre including Horror, lovestory, discussing item numbers sometimes breaking the fourth wall and interacting directly with the audience can only be pulled-off by the actor of his stature he did that very naturally. Lastly I like the brief appearance of Anurag Kashyap as Inspector Badlani the 'Chai Pani Cop' he was funny and lit but his character left incomplete which again may be due to the flawed editing. I wish I could see more screen presence of Badlani.
