The Tashkent Files : A Fan Point of View.

I have seen all those movies Vivek Agnihotri is associated with, either as a director or a producer. But I came to know him only after Buddha in The Traffic Jam and thanks to all those tolerant people who shown intolerance during its release, otherwise, I had gone through the movie without knowing Vivek. Actually, I changed my mind from left to right by following him on different platforms. It is nearly impossible to imagine the same man is associated with Hate Story(2012) and Zid(2014), where former is masterpiece and later is a big sorry.

But after the movie ended I was with two other. Both of them had the same reason to watch the movie, that I had. But then they had planned to watch that again for the second prime minister of India. I too planned it with my friends. But sadly the movie was thrown out of the multiplex even before a week.


By the way, I would say movie compelled me to think, to rethink and to think again and again. It was also made possible because only imminent and veterans were cast. Interestingly enough, Nasiruddin was cast while Vivek and he is two ideological poles.

But one thing I would suggest respectfully that there should be more visualization, which was absent. It would have been more convincing and engaging if it were made like Meghna Gulzar's Talvar(2015). I think a low budget movie seeks it hard to do.

By the time, Study IQ education has reviewed the movie, many of my friends are repenting.

Hope I will come across the uncensored print of The Tashkent Files soon.
