Ram Kamal Mukherjee Instagram – Take a bow, Mr Bhansali.
Just finished watching 8 hours magnum opus, Heeramandi… and it was such a delight. Maybe this series is not meant for audiences who don’t believe in dialoguebaazi and onscreen opulence. So, some might find it slow, stretchy, and melodramatic.
But for those who loves bitches, “begums” and story of betrayals, they will find this as nothing short of a masterpiece by creator and director Mr Sanjay Leela Bhansali.
I am so happy to see all my friends killing it with their screen presence and histrionics, from Manisha Koirala to Sonakshi Sinha, from Richa Chadda to Aditi Rao Hydari, from Taha Shah to Jason Shah, from Fardeen Khan to Adhayan Suman, they have nailed it right. Personally, I feel that Manisha steals the show with her wide range performance, and she reminds me of a royal version of Begum Jaan’s character played astoundingly by national awarded Rituparna Sengupta in Srijit Mukherji’s Bengali film Rajkahini. Even the soul of the Heeramandi has uncanny resemblance with Mukherji’s Bengali saga.
Once again Bhansali pays tribute to his favourite genre, “musical historical saga” and sets the tone right as he takes us to the bylanes of Heeramandi, the so called “tehezeebkhana” of Lahore with astounding art direction, soulful music, magical cinematography by Sudeep Chatterjee and exquisite costume by Rimple and Harpeet Narula.
Don’t miss this saga on @netflix_in if you are looking for some top “notch” performance!
