Langda tyagi, one of my favourite characters of all bollywood movies, maybe a favourite of lot of people. So what makes this
character so interesting, is it the story of the great shakespeare or is it vishal’s direction or is it saif’s acting which makes this character so alive
or maybe it’s the combined effect of all three of them.
But vishal does not stop here, he adopts 2 more of the shakespeare plays and makes epic movies out of them. These 3 screenplays were
so well written in Indian context that if you have not read the books, you will
be awe struck by their story, you may get some goose bumps too. Vishal is such
a good story teller he will bind you to your seat, till the end of the movie.
Also lot of credit goes to the great actors who helped vishal journey of making these 3 epics which are larger than life. Actors like
Saif, Ajay, Irrfan, Tabu, Naseeruddin, Shahid, Pankaj etc. who has raised the
standard of bollywood, above the mindless comedy and action we are so used to
watch, actors who had dared to go beyond the common perception of the bollywood.
So was it not difficult to
imagine hamlet in kashmir, macbeth in a mumbai mafia and othello in a UP
village. It is no less than a work of a genius , a man who has a vivid
imagination to put these stories and characters in such different Indian
scenarios. Let’s see what he brings in our plate in future.
