Peepli [Live]



Average time pass flick. Nothing new that we havent seen before. Story of below poverty line farmers and the politics of Indian Govt.

Pluses:
  • Our center of attraction, Nattha :) His expressions reminded me of Garfield :D Always neutral to everything happening around him. :P No reaction.
  • Good depiction of the farmer's reality.
  • A tight slap to the govt.
  • Sarcastic and humorous take on the media.
Minuses:
  • Very short movie, ever by bollywood. Not a paisa vasool, guys u can wait to watch it over ur Tata Sky within a few months :)
  • Cliched drama, have seen the satire on Media even before and also the plight of the people below poverty line, nothing impressive.
  • There was a lot more expected from Aamir Khan Productions.
  • Even though the movie was so short, spanning only by 1.5 hrs...i felt the movie was dragging, not much of content to show. Not very well scripted.
  • Music was so-so, more close to village folks songs.

My Rating: 2.5/5
