shor in the city

Raj nidimoru and krishna d k have returned to entertain us with shor in the city. they struck a deal with ekta kapoor and irrespective of what the deal was, the fruits are turning out to be incredibly delicious. the duo directed (and probably debuted) with the awesome amru-indie Flavors, where the sparkling simplicity of narrative and depth of characters were the hallmark. they have now turned increasingly sophisticated - multiple plots, sprinkled with nuances, dark humor, smoothed out climax and a sublime message. the movie ranks among some of the most accomplished desi cult dramas. but even as it slips under your skin without you being aware, I probably start missing the explicit narrative, the comfort of being told and explained everything. Not fully sure, but mysterious narratives are quite bewafaa in some sense.
and yes, the soundtrack is quite lovely too. sachin-jigar, harpreet. saibo is pretty.

i need a break and soon there shall be one. a big one. a quick death and a new life. be patient.
