Andhadhun
Rent/Purchase
A series of mysterious events changes the life of a blind pianist who now must report a crime that was actually never witnessed by him.
What critics thought
Sriram Raghavan's blind-pianist thriller landed as one of the most celebrated Indian genre films in years, with critics falling over each other to praise its relentless unpredictability and the way it blends dark comedy, suspense, and moral murkiness into something hard to categorize. The main point of debate was the second half: some felt the film's momentum carries all the way through, while others thought it grew predictable and lost the tight grip of its opening. Tabu's performance was singled out repeatedly as the film's electric center, with Ayushmann Khurrana's work close behind.
“Andhadhun should rank among the most fascinating and fun suspense thrillers ever to emerge from Bollywood”
Anna M. M. Vetticad·Firstpost
“Raghavan creates a world interchangeably familiar and pulpy”
Shilajit Mitra·The New Indian Express
“strong flavour of the Coen brothers at their peak, but also enough nods to Raghavan's longstanding interest in the dynamics of the perfect crime and the hustlers and flimflam artists who populate pulp detective stories”
Nandini Ramnath·Scroll.in
“racy, pacy and appropriately pulpy”
