Ishquiya Movie Review

Isquiya is a fine film. Vishal Bharadwaj has started attempting the films that India can call "originally ours" ( Finally), this is a very appreciable act, Abhishek Choubey comes from the same school of thought and that is so evident in his work. Everything is just perfect, even the smallest of the casting is so authentic that you really marvel at the amount of hard work put in.The dialogues are fresh, creative and egdy at times compliment the film so nicely. I was very impressed with the way director has used small little things to show the differences in the character of Babban and Khalujaan ( like the songs they both hear...tells us how different they are from each other. I think that was fantastic.).
I was also impressed with the way Arshad has carried off his Bhopali accent and lingo all through the film.Though I am so disappointed with the way Vidya's accent and lingo kept wavering. One second her accent is so clear the other second she has that rustic flavour, I am also disspointed with the way people mix up Bihari with the Up language. The language of the areas like Lucknow, kanpur and Gorakhpur stc have a different lingo even from the language of Mathura, Abhishek is from Up he should know. Now that is the language Nandu speaks, even Vidya's on screen husband manages to do well there.I mean it very a real turn down , though Vidya tried to cover this up with her acting.There are some magical moments that Vidya and Naseeruddin Shah manage to create just using their face and eyes. I am also very unhappy with the way film ended. Vidya, Arshad and naseerji walking out after the blast looked like a scene direct from the Charlie's Angel's film, I found that funny. The way jijaji spares the three of them also amused me. C'mon guy you are making a realistic movie, why do you have to say in the end that look moral of the story is : the good always wins over the bad.I wasn't expecting it. But anyway its Abhishek's film, he has every right to make it the way he has made it. Overall I would say a real nice attempt. A good film. Thumbs Up to Ishquiya.
