Gulaab Gang (2014)

gulaab gang is a commercial film,stated soumik sen,but yet it is still intelligent then silly blockbuster and more real to be called commercial,the most violent portrayal of women in Indian cinema,and goddess avatar of our superheroine madhuri dixit,and no way less devilicious chawla, who is tough to fight with.its not a MAIN HOO NAARI type preachy parable,but a social drama about rural women fighting not for liberalisation,but their existence indeed. its a shame that some male chauvinistic critics have shunned it, who could not digest womens performing hand to hand action sequences, music and background score is classical and folk,and is for different taste,if u r not fond of women centric films,still u can enjoy,bcoz madhuri n juhi r true heroes of GULAAB GANG.

The combo of 2 of the Bollywood Top Divas is out in cinemas with a high frequency slogan "Women Empowerment". The film is full of undulating situations, emotions, action and drama. The acting skills of Madhuri Dixit and Juhi Chawla are well suited to the overall plot. The supporting actors and actresses are well balanced. The talent of Juhi Chawla has been proved finally and she has been on the stronger side of her personality signature. Madhuri Dixit was too inspirational but the action sequence filmed on her gave a bit clumsy and super hero touch that looked a bit out of reality. The film should have been advertised and promoted more.The respect and dedication extended towards Madhuri in the film is sketchy and should have been elaborated a little. The storyline developed well in the first half but it looses its tempo and effect considerably in the second half. The situations and cinematography should have been more convincing. The dialogs were effective, fresh and innovative but were out of synchronization with the situation during 2nd half. The music remained out of soul, touch and melody. An item song at an appropriate situation could have paid rich dividends towards the commercial aspect. Overall the film did a good job and can make the audience stick to their seats. Bollywood is rapidly advancing towards women excellence in films and female actors are merely a show piece now. The film is dedicated to women empowerment and nothing could have been a better gift for women on this "Women Day" than "Gulaab Gang". An intense, vocal, bold and a must watch drama packed with impressive acting skills and dialogs.

When the film was announced it caught my attention as it brought together Juhi and Madhuri who never worked together till date. Also the topic seems bold however the director opts to make it a mix between masala and realism There are too many dance numbers yet the problems and also several dramatic scenes are brilliantly handled, The clash between Juhi and Madhuri is interesting Another problem is that a documentary called Gulaabi Gang was released few weeks before which showed more realistically the story that mars the impact.Direction is decent Music is okay but too many songs and they do look out of placeMadhuri Dixit is fab in the role that demanded an actress, she is superb though her accent may not be 100% but her expressions and acting is spot on Juhi Chawla for the first time in a negative role is simply outstanding, she makes you forget the Juhi we know Divya Jagdale seen in small roles in Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam(Ajay's sister) and other films is simply outstanding, Priyanka Bose and others are good

First, i would like to appreciate the director for making movie on gulabi gang. which is already a world famous and some people doesn't know about it in most parts of India. First i thought the movie would be only on revolution against injustice to women. But gulaab gang fights against every injustice in their village where men come to them ask their help,which is impressive. there is also political drama which makes you interesting to watch. After watching the movie i started surfing online about gulabi gang and it's leader sampat pal. Men might be against the movie or the gulabi gang. But what i want to say is common yar, let them do at least which we men have no courage to do. when it comes to the movie,you may watch it once for madhuri and juhi. rest of the cast also did their job very well. i'm sure it won't disappoint you. performances of entire cast will make u sit through the movie. that's enough to watch a movie i guess.
