In the end, the movie comes together as a satisfying summation to over a decade of superhero storytelling from Marvel’s cinematic universe. It is packed with enough plot twists and turns to keep you riveted, enough glorious action to make you feel like you really got your money’s worth, and enough sentiment to keep you thinking about the film much after the credits have rolled.

Simply put, with sparkling performances and a colourful setting, Pataakha shines on screen like a proper boxful of crackers!

Overall, Batti Gul Meter Chalu is a film that does seem to have its heart in the right place with the subject it wants to deal with, albeit with a mild case of cardiac arrhythmia – perhaps a little shock is in order to set its pace back in order?

Sairat is not an easy film to make or to grasp. While I recommend it, I’d also warn the audience to pause and take a deep breath before passing the judgment, one way or another.
