Watch It In: Eros Now
A ton of Buddhadeb Dasgupta’s characters, especially the chief ones, are on a journey. Ordinarily, they walk intentionally, various events they meander. They’re to be found in a few spots, inside the city and in country zones, making their strategy all through packed roads and open scenes, gathering entirely unexpected people in a few time regions: he makes such a vivid film that expects you to think too little points of interest. Here is our own Anwar Ka Ajab Kissa Review.
The Chief Idea
Anwar Ka Ajab Kissa, a 2013 film featuring Nawazuddin, one in the entirety of Dasgupta’s intermittent Hindi excursions, has essentially started gushing on Eros Now. It’s a couple of men searching for himself, a topic the chief holds getting back to. Since the eponymous Anwar appears to acquire a questionable dwelling by keeping an eye on people, Nawaz is for all intents and purposes in each body.
Anyway rapidly you understand why this film in no way, shape, or form dealt with a dispatch: the plan is charming—how an individual who approaches revealing people’s filthy privileged insights and methods will be so ignorant about who he’s—anyway the execution is lopsided, and the final product, disappointing.

The Story
Anwar’s analyst is the exact converse of someone who should blend into the air to not attract thought to himself. He wears a cap and darkish glasses, and dances out and in disintegrating homes the spot furtive sweethearts meet, gathering information on the command of dubious relations who get up on the organization he works with.
The characters he catches should be picaresque: an obsolete young lady (Jaffar) who lives in her mind, an individual who subtly adores one other man, a decently neighbor who delicately follows him, as Anwar himself spends desolate evenings addressing his canine. All of a sudden, a woman addresses him as he winds up on a surrendered hillock. An individual (Tripathi) whom Anwar seems to know moreover appears to be all of a sudden: does he exist, or would he say he is an illusion of the innovativeness?
The film has all the earmarks of resembling favor; it has been yanked out of blankness because Nawaz and Tripathi are really saleable names. There are exclusively fleeting patches through which you perceive Dasgupta’s unmistakable mark, this variety of characters, and a combination of the valid and the unusual.
Anwar (Nawazuddin Siddiqui) isn’t generally a decent analyst. A private tracker (or as the film’s English title calls him, a ‘Sniffer’) working for a criminologist office called Inner Eye in Kolkata, Anwar may fulfill his customers by getting the essential information they need.
His customers generally recruit his office to discover if their planned children-in-law or little girls in-law or companions are ‘unadulterated’ basically (most aren’t) or sometimes, locate their missing family members.

While we do see him have a decent history with his cases, Anwar doesn’t have a clue how to take care of his responsibility in a secretive way. Disregard being Karamchand (however he prefers his dark cap and shades), Anwar can’t be Madhu Mangal Rane!
Anwar’s greatest paradox, nonetheless, is that he turns out to be near his objectives and even gets them to share their accounts, associating with them simultaneously. A forlorn individual with just canine Lalu for the organization, Anwar thinks that its difficult to accept that we are transforming into a world suspicious of even our friends and family, while he is spooky by his own previous recollections, of a day to day existence he would never have, of a sentiment (Niharika Singh) that he would never satisfy.
What we can conclude
Anwar Ka Ajab Kissa isn’t for everyone. Indeed, even contrasted with Buddhadeb sir’s past works, Anwar Ka Ajab Kissa feels undeniably more languorous and regularly unusual and merits a patient watch. The attention is on how the cases that Anwar research cause him to think about on his own self in his desolate universe. Each case transforms into a plotline, some effortlessly fails to remember, while some wait. For the last mentioned, I can pinpoint the instance of a family whose patriarch ends it all, and Anwar discovers that he has been having a double existence.
These examinations additionally loan to certain portions of humor, generally kindness, how Nawaz, who is stunning in the job, as usual, approaches the scenes. In any case, I felt that the comic tone conflicts generally with the contemplative nature that the film embraces. The wonderful Ananya Chatterjee and an inconspicuous Pankaj Tripathi, before he accomplished his faction status, show up in vital appearances.
As Anwar Ka Ajab Kissa continues, the lines among genuine and creative mind obscure for its hero, to the point that we don’t have the foggiest idea whether the various experiences he has (counting that arbitrary kiss with his past love interest) occurred or not, regardless of whether the individuals he meets haphazardly are even genuine.
The long undisturbed shots and Anwar’s incessant discourses are confirmation of how the veteran movie producer needs us to interface with Anwar’s mind, yet the listless movement doesn’t actually make things simple for the watcher.
The plot of the film is so frail and dull, I am as yet befuddled why the Award-winning motion pictures are so exhausting for the overall crowds, the plot of the film is so exhausting and it doesn’t excite you by any means, there isn’t anything to watch in the film aside from few extraordinary exhibitions by Nawzuddin and co-entertainers. The plot is unsurprising, discoursed are so dull and the film closes at nothing, by and large, the film is only not for the overall crowds.

I was expecting some incredible exhibitions as the film has some large names on the card yet it baffles me here as well, Nawazuddin Siddiqi is acceptable however not at his best, Pankaj Tripathi is additionally at low, in the wake of watching him in blockbusters like LUDO and Mirzapur, watching him in this film was truly frustrating. Different entertainers from the film like Niharika Singh and Ananya Chatterjee were additionally normal and the film has nothing to show as far as exhibitions for general crowds.
The Drawbacks
The most noticeably awful thing about the film is the screenplay, the film gets exhausting from the initial 10 minutes itself, the film is so moderate, the message that the film needs to brood can be passed on by a short film, there was no compelling reason to make a long film on this plot, the altering of the film is additionally terrible and practically 50% of the film is to no end, it exhausts you at next level.
