Kathal – Movie on Netflix

BinduLeave a comment

I recently stumbled upon this movie Kathal on Netflix and was immediately drawn in by the intriguing trailer that accompanied the title. Eager to delve into it, I started watching and I must say, I was not disappointed. The film revolves around the theft of two unripe Jackfruits from an MLA’s house, prompting the police to embark on a mission to recover them. It’s safe to say that this movie falls under the genres of satire and dark comedy.

What amazed me was that my six-year-old son joined me in watching the film, and for him, it was simply a hilarious comedy packed with thrilling action. However, as an adult, I couldn’t help but appreciate the clever way the movie addressed various societal issues. It managed to touch upon these topics in a wise and thought-provoking manner.

If you have a spare two hours, I highly recommend giving this movie a watch. Whether you’re a fan of Indian cinema or simply curious about the realities of Indian police, villages, and families, this film offers a delightful and eye-opening experience. Prepare yourself for an entertaining ride that blends humor, social commentary, and a dash of action. Trust me, you won’t be disappointed.

Sanju Movie Review

Netflix does have many good movies and shows to watch. Recently I watched the hindi movie Sanju. Sometimes I wonder why do I choose serious topics even though the purpose of watching movies is for entertainment. But unfortunately movies without substance don’t really attract me. Now how do we decide whether a movie is good or bad. First and foremost I really dont have the patience to watch any average movie especially when I am in front of a smart TV where I can navigate from Netflix, to YouTube or YouTube to prime video and so on. Thus If I watched a movie in addition to taking care of my toddler son, then it means the movie is good! Thus Sanju comes in worth watching list.

There is a debate why do you have to make the movie of a Culprit, but you do have the famous ‘God Father’ that was also about the Underworld Dons. But here at least he is not underworld don, How an offspring of famous personalities becomes addicted to drug, still comes out of it and becomes successful actor but again the fate puts him in prison.

The things to take from this movie are

  •  His struggle to come out of addiction
  • lesson to all those who might fall into the trap of bad habits, bad company and addiction
  • lesson to parents to be there for their children in times of their emotional needs
  • message that do not blindly believe each and everything that’s propagated in social media.

some of the questions I have is

  •  if it’s a biography why there is no mention of his first and second wives
  •  where is his child hood?
  • was the honesty of sunil dutt the reason for him get arrested?

I guess Rajkumar Hirani can come with a TV Serial so that it can start from Nargis and Sunil dutt wedding to the present Sanjay dutt. Because I believe a lot of things during his childhood might have definitely affected him to fall into the trap of drug addiction.
