Raja Sen from Rediff.com rated it 4 out of 5 and said "Badlapur is a dark, unflinching, fantastic film."[12] Sudhish Kamath from The Hindu wrote that the film was "darkly ambitious and very well made."[13] Rachit Gupta from Filmfare stated that it had "exhilarating performances, stellar storytelling."[14]
Saibal Chatterjee of NDTV rated it 3/5 and noted the pervasive contemptful treatment of women in the film, writing, "If one can ignore the overt misogyny on show all through the film, Badlapur throws up enough surprises to hold the viewer's interest right until the bitter end."[15]
Mohar Basu of The Times of India rated Badlapur 4 out of 5.[16] Shubhra Gupta of The Indian Express rated the movie 2.5 stars out of 5, describing it as riveting, but also noting that the film "comes off too contrived in many places, and leaves us hanging in others."[17] Rajeev Masand and Md Abidur Rahaman of CNN-IBN rated it 3.5 out of 5 and wrote: "The pace slackens post-intermission, plot contrivances are many, and you might say the film is misogynistic in its treatment of women ... [However], the film keeps you on your toes, curious to see where its twists and turns will lead."[18]
In December 2015, Badlapur got 15 nominations at the Stardust Awards, having the maximum number of award nominations from one film for the year. Both Dhawan and Siddiqui were nominated for the Best Actor category. The film was nominated for awards in Story (2), Screenplay (2), Direction, Lyrics (2), Best Playback Singer (Male), Best Choreographer, Music Direction (2), Best Actor (2), Best Supporting Actor (Female) (2).[19]
The movie is based on real incidents that happened in 1990. The incident that happened is just known to have happened, there hasn't been an actual recording of the exact events. The film's story, however, follows those events closely, do just watch the film you'll get an idea of what happened. The book Death's Dark Abyss, just inspired the movie's theme and overall emotion, not the story.
[Death Wish]( _Wish_(film) invented this or at least popularised this genre, The Punisher is one more such vigilante, even in popular (commercial) fiction, books like Without Remorse by Tom Clancy put the vigilante on steroids, and in all these cases, I as the audience walked away with symphathising the anti-hero. We all knew that he wouldn't harm a single innocent soul...but not Raghav. By the end of the movie, Raghav had gone from vigilante to psycho killer, but the movie incorporates all the genre tropes - from the grieving to being recognised by the public, but all of it is with a twist.
Badlapur is a 2015 action thriller Bollywood film directed by Sriram Raghavan and starring Varun Dhawan. The film took inspiration from the novel Death's Dark Abyss by Italian writer Massimo Carlotto.
The film follows Raghu, who seeks vengeance upon the people who murdered his wife and child 15 years ago during a bank robbery gone wrong. As the story progresses, we see Raghu's internal conflict and desperation for revenge.
- Villain Protagonist: By the end of the film, Raghu has raped multiple girls, killed an innocent girl who had nothing to do with Raghu's family's murder and murdered a man who was trying to leave his past behind and live a normal life.
Sriram Raghavan's new film's title comes with a helpful tip for audiences. The censor certificate preceding the actual film informs us that it's titled Badlapur: Don't Miss The Beginning. The tagline is a critically important detail.
There is a fantastic plot lurking in Badlapur, but to find the intriguing ideas in Raghavan's new film, the audience has to fish deep below some painfully mediocre acting from Dhawan, awkward writing and terribly-paced storytelling. You know there's something seriously awry when even after four dead bodies, one rape, many punches and a soundtrack that's full doom-tinged songs and ominous drum tracks, the audience keeps checking their mobile to see how much longer till the end.
Given the man runs a successful restaurant, it's impossible he doesn't have friends among the local police. Does it make sense that a man would stash Rs 2.5 crores in an unsealed vat, in a warehouse that (presumably) has hundreds of people working in it? At one point in the film, the police claims to have enough evidence (including DNA) to make an arrest, but they ignore all that because someone else comes forward and admits to the crime. What is this place where it doesn't strike the police that their evidence is enough to prove the confession is false?
I'll cut to the chase. I much preferred Varun Dhawan's metamorphosis over to the dark side than I did Sidharth Malhotra's in last year's lukewarm, albeit successful Ek Villain. I get it. The comparisons may be a tad unfair, but they're inevitable given that both actors made their debut in the same film. Dhawan's transformation into the brutal, lean, mean killing machine is far more convincing and compelling than the act Malhotra pulled off last year, and his act alone is reason enough to watch this morbid, gruesome and yet compelling tale of revenge and redemption.
He gets able support from the film's 'antagonist', actually I wont call him that; The film's other character played with equal gusto by Nawazuddin Siddiqui, who initially, does a superb job of making us dislike him, and then in the second half, goes full circle and does an equally formidable job of making our hearts go out to his otherwise despicable character.
In terms of performances, it goes without saying that both Dhawan and Siddiqui are OUTSTANDING in the film leaving precious little for the supporting cast to work with but credit where its due. Radhika Apte, Divya Dutta, Huma Qureshi and Vinay Pathak pull of their parts with earnestness, but it would have been nice if Raghavan had delved a little into their back stories so that their motives were a little clearer, rather than making them mere pawns in Raghu's quest for revenge.
On the flip side too, you never fully engage with the love story purely because there's precious little chemistry between Dhawan and Gautam. Their romance should have been given just a tiny little more air time, which would have made it easier to relate to Raghu's plight. Moreover, I'm not quite sure why Gautam went to town promoting the film either, given that she has sweet FA to do in it.
I'm no longer scared of Indian cinema! Badlapur (2015) shows that there are quality movies coming out of Bollywood. This is a well made revenge drama that doesn't try and confuse things with it a complicated narrative, yet keeps one guessing what'll happen next. Keeps things engaging through-out and there is very few low-points. Perhaps not the deepest of films, but it's filthy enough to feel like there is some soul there. Troubled ones. And that makes Badlapur a entertaining 2015 choice.
i've wanted to watch this movie for 5 years
here's whats good:
the performances are great, nawaz is awesome and varun dhawan is genuinely fantastic, he shows enough subtlety and nuance to prove that he CAN act but simply doesnt
the film is made up of small fantastic scenes, but these scenes never lead to shit and are immediately followed by something horrid.
whats bad:
the editing is bad
the sound design is actually awful istg i wanted to fucking yell at the screen at points
the blocking is shit
A superb crime drama with an incredible screenplay that constantly tests a viewer's loyalty toward its characters. It's a miracle really a film like this got made in Bollywood almost a decade ago with a commercial hero (VD) playing the lead character.
An excellent premise, a jaw-dropping opening segment, and an overall well-paced revenge thriller are ultimately let down by a script rife with misogyny. Still, Sriram Raghavan is clearly one of the most talented filmmakers working in India today, and Badlapur showcases many of his talents, even if I was less onboard than with Andhadhun and Johnny Gaddar.
Any VFX / CG in the film?
There is only one sequence in the car, which is green screen. Rest of the CG work is incidental like removing string, clean up, add blood etc. all very effectively handled by TATA ELXSI. Pankaj Khandpur and Vishal did not need any prompting in that area.
Directed by the master of thrillers Sriram Raghavan, Badlapur is a neo-noir action drama based on an Italian short story Death's Dark Abyss by Massimo Corlotto. The short story is loosely inspired by the Italian author's own life, having been charged with a murder that he didn't commit and losing out on 17 years of his life. But the story in the film is a bit different. We know from the beginning that Liak is the one who killed Misha (Yami Gautam) and Robin (Neel Tyagi), Raghav's (Varun Dhawan) wife and son. But, all through the police custody and all the years spent in jail, he keeps repeating that it wasn't him who killed them. He tries to convince everyone and maybe even convince himself that he is not a killer. And maybe he wasn't. The death of Robin was an accident and killing Misha was purely an impulsive reaction in the heat of the moment. So is he still a killer if it wasn't his intention to kill them? But, Raghu is not bothered by this question. For him, Liak and his partner are murderers and his sole aim now is to find the partner and kill them both. With the opening of an African proverb, "The axe forgets but the tree remembers," Raghavan prepares us for a revenge saga that is about to unfold in front of our screens.
