      Thrives on being raw

      Wherever possible, the masterpiece direction and editing keeps clinging true to the film's theme of keeping it raw. It doesn't set huge expectations thus and gives you the full dose of it all: violence (without getting gory), love making scenes (without getting vulgar), and language (used to build in humour). All characters are kept as grey and down to earth to keep up the raw element. Well made!

      needs to be appreciated

      #BabumoshaiBandookbaaz is a raw n brutal gangster film, set in UP, which needs to be appreciated. The locations, costumes, dialogues n situations are authentic n ensure that you remain fully involved with the key characters. The men enjoy sex n violence n this is well depicted. Nawazuddin, as Babu, is superb n so is Jatin, as his chela. Bidita Bag sets the screen on fire with her raw sensuality. Hope to see her more often. Divya Dutta is impressive, as always. This is one of the rare Hindi movies where all the key characters are murdered. The music matches the mood of the film. Rating 4/5.

      cant believe this is an bollywood movie.

      Two professional assassins are drinking on a bridge over railway tracks, sharing their life stories and reminiscing how they entered into the business of killing people. One of them considers the other his teacher. The junior has so much admiration for the senior that he has renamed himself Banke Bihari (Jatin Goswami) out of respect for his guru, Babu Bihari (Nawazuddin Siddiqui).

      A weird self realization takes over Banke when he learns that Babu gets paid Rs 25,000 for each murder while he gets only Rs 8,000. That turns their conversation towards inflation and how it has become difficult for hired guns to operate with honesty. In an inebriated state, they challenge each other to murder three people. Whosoever will eliminate the three first will win and the other will have to leave the business of contract killing.

      Disappointing

      A story of an assassin for hire set in Bihar. The story had potential but everything else concerning this film was a disaster. Poor screenplay, poor performances and indifferent music. Even the brilliant Nawazuddin Siddique could not save this. Making a good film on low budget is a skill which the team of this film did not possess.

      Extra Star for Siddiqui's Performance

      Film roams around Babu Bihari (Siddiqui), a professional bounty killer, is assigned a target by Jiji, a ruthless politician. However, during his mission, when he meets Phulwa, a young woman, things go awry. Everything about this movie is standard but it is recommended for its outclass performance by Nawazuddin Siddiqui. If youre a Nawazuddin fan and haven't watched this movie then you should the Tapori Killer Swag with sufficient sarcasm is what he does effortlessly and this character is no different. Other then that the movie is watchable as it wont amuse you well but neither will disappoint you.
