TUMBBAD - The overly artistic execution restricts the reach of this must watch ORIGINAL Indian horror film with an important moral lesson. (Review By Bobby Sing) |
It’s extremely difficult to explore new avenues, fresh plots and inventive visuals in the Horror genre in particular which more or less survives on clichés and all familiar elements. Plus it’s even more challenging to present such content along with an important moral lesson as found in the famous Indian traditional Jataka Tales or Panchantantra stories, we still remember having read in our school days.
However, a team has amazingly managed to perform the toughest task and that too in an unbelievable style as a praiseworthy amalgamation of Indian mythology, fantasy, horror, a tale of a monster, a treasure hunt and an innocent kid along with a social message in the end forcing you to give it a serious thought.

Hi Avik,
pardeep garg
Bobby sir, I will always have special memories of this awesome movie " tumbbad " because of your article....I thank u from the bottom of my heart...Due to hectic schedule at times , it becomes difficult to watch a movie in theatre ( even though it's there on your wishlist & u don't want to miss it watching in theatre ) Same thing happened to me regarding this movie.....Due to some overbusy schedule I missed it watching in theatre at my hometown when it was released...It was there in theatre for two weeks only ( at my hometown) However your article kept on pushing me to see it in theatre. So I made an effort to travel to a major city where it was being screened at pvr cinemas ( nearest to my hometown ) , stayed there in a hotel ( ' as it was 8 pm show ) and finally had this memorable experience of watching this masterpiece " tumbbad " .It also shows the self-belief, grit & determination of " tumbbad " team to present such unusual , one of its kind cinema...Hats off to the entire " tumbbad " team... thanks once again bobby sir Pardeep Garg ( FB id Seven Notes )
