ISHQIYA- raw, rough and bumpy ride.
Directed by: abhishek chaubey
It seems like vishal bharadwaj and his allies has got excellent grip on rural side of country in their story-telling. The story evolves in the northern part of country where two small town thieves (arshad warasi and naseeruddin shah) are trying to escape from his boss mushtaq after stealing a big amount from him. When they didn’t find any shelter ,they move to an old friend’s village. Instead of friend, they found his widow Krishna ( vidhya balan).
As the things goes on they both slowly gets attracted towards Krishna who uses her seductive feminine art on them. But when mushtaq catches them and gives a month time to return his money, the trio plans to kidnap a business-man from gorakhpur
Ishqiya has the same rawness as we saw in omkara previously; the dialogues are excellent with bucolic touch. Music is as good as it tends to be in vishal bharadwaj movies with superb lyrics by gulzar, specially one song dil to bachcha hai ji .
Story required performances of top notch and The trio has performed their part excellently. naseeruddin shah as wanna be young guy is delight to watch .watching arshad warsi one will feel he is capable of playing more than a side kick of lead actors, he is superb. And above all vidhya balan- the perfect example of Cleopatra of village. She excels in each and every movie. The chemistry of all the three lead actors with each other is very good. Salman shahid and adil husain have performed the negative parts very well.
Director Abhishek chaubey has got good sense of story telling. He has tried to keep the tone of the movie light-hearted .
The movie is raw, rough and full of bumpy rides. Watch it .
RATING : 6.5 OUT OF 10.
