TSI Five-O: Kashyap is in his element, even if the story is a bit of a stretch
There are many kinds of filmmakers blitzing the scene. There is one that is totally market-driven, doing his demand–supply number. There is another for whom cinema is a vehicle of self-expression, be it artistic, political or social. There is yet another for whom these two converge to offer entertaining, intelligent middle of the road content. Then there is the guy for whom movies spell entertainment all the way, the more mindless the better! Then there is Anurag Kashyap – a fiery practitioner who leverages the power and passion of this youngest of art forms to sock it hard and hit where it hurts the most! A volatile samurai who uses the camera as AK-47 to blast the candy floss that masquerades as cinema and present his version through the bloodshot prism of his explosive talent!
For Kashyap-watchers, “Gulaal” is a familiar territory. This time though, it’s a love story-cum-political thriller (with communal supremacy trying to overrun democracy) set in the Rajasthan of the future. Love, lust, passion, greed, deceit, intrigue, betrayal, ambition, and the death of innocence…it is an astonishing and colourful passion play that is as riveting as it is disturbing! A fiery invocation to shock you through cinematic catharsis!
Typically, Kashyap’s strength sometimes becomes his weakness. His irreverent, flamboyant shock tactics can be tiresome and dilute the narrative flow. A little restraint would help. The performances (by a cast of mostly new comers), however, are nothing short of brilliant. As for Kay Kay Menon, Piyush Mishra, Deepak Dobriyal and Mahie Gill (Paro of “Dev D” fame), they rock! The innovative use of lyrics and music (through Mishra as Greek Chorus) is mind blowing too. A niche film attempting to macro the micro – expand the local to universal – “Gulaal” is a must-see for all those who believe that there is life beyond “Singh is Kinng”!
