artist | Alia Bhatt, Vijay Raaz, Seema Pahwa, Shantanu Maheshwari, Jim Sarbh, and Ajay Devgn |
Author | Utkarshini Vashisht, Prakash Kapadia and Sanjay Leela Bhansali |
the director | Sanjay Leela Bhansali |
the creator | Jayanti Lal Gada and Sanjay Leela Bhansali |
Sanjay Leela Bhansali is seen trying to glorify a woman called Mafia Queen in this film. She sells liquor illegally. Bribes the police. And, to make up for his actions, Bhansali shows him a brutal beating by a miscreant. This beating is what drives Gangubai to Rahim Lala. About two and a half hours long film ‘Gangubai Kathiawadi’ impresses in pieces.
Whenever Ajay Devgan comes on screen, people expect something big to happen but his character is like a comet. Flashes just for a moment on the sky of the story and goes away. This part is its blessing. Huma Qureshi dancing to qawwali is its relief. The song ‘Meri Jaan’ composed inside the car with Shantanu Maheshwari is its nature. At first sight, Shantanu looked perfect in the role of the ladies’ tailor on Gangubai. Vijay Raj got something like this after a long time, In which he got a chance to show his different style of acting and he managed to leave his impact. A strong actor like Jim Sarbh did not get a chance to juggle much in the film. Yes, Seema Pahwa and Indira Tiwari showed their flair.
I kept getting tweets for Gehraiyaan and Gangubai reviews from some random people I have never seen or heard about. They kept raving about Deepika and Alia endlessly – I had to mute all but it still continued. The movies are gone and so have the tweets now.

Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s music has also not been as strong this time, for which he has received a lot of praise from the film ‘Guzaarish’ to ‘Padmavat’. He is also the video editor of the film himself, so the blame for slowing down in the middle of the film is also on him. The story of Hussain Zaidi and Jane Borges is rife with Bhansali’s script written by Utkriskar. Yes, Bhansali’s dialogues with Prakash Kapadia keep on catching the audience’s attention time and again. The film can get the advantage of being a typical Gujarati and Mumbai-style film in Maharashtra and Gujarat, but in North India, the film’s ordeal is to be done from day one.
