An Interesting Start By Kiran Rao At Dhobhi Ghaa

Kiran Rao's first movie in terms of scripting and filming seems to score her connections with Kolkata and her inspiration from bengali art movies....Because Dhobhi Ghaat is so much about relationships which are unsaid, suttle and between people who have no connections. Narrative so poetic and artistic....I am sure the movie is not made for the mass and with a commercial mindset as it will appeal only to people who like this genre of movies....Its so much i would say like 'Antoheen' (if anybody has seen it).....For people looking for entertainment its a pure bore...but people seeking art its beautiful....I think she has had made a good movie and hopefully will continue to do some interesting work in years to come.....
Coming to the movie....Its about these four characters who are complete strangers, have no connection at all but how during the story create connections build strange relationships with each other which cannot be expressed in words....The backdrop of this narration has been chosen the old mumbai which like the story has lot of depth and character.....
All the characters have performed really well and while they have promoted this as more a prateek's movie but amir khan too has a fair share in the story which i think has been purposefully kept as a secret....
Narrative is artistic with beautiful background score and extremely good photography
Editing could have been better which would have made the flow a little tighter...
But overall a treat to watch for people who see 'Movie' as an art and not only as a source of entertainment for the rest please don't go...
