abhishekbhardwaj57433 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.

lopamudrax Too many jumps doesn't let the story flow in a linear manner. I understand that there are a lot of by stories that need to be established but the jumps are way too many and the first foray in watching the film is that of disjointedness.And why the delay in embracing the protagonist? And when finally she emerges from behind the veil, the entry lacks voltage.And then comes in the antagonist and she doesn't fail. And the face off well that doesn't fail either. Both stand their ground and it's electrifying.It's not a question of who had the meatier or glamorous role but JC over shone MD. JC was the character and vice versa. I was seeing Sumitra in each frame through all her mannerisms whether it was biting her lower lip or having that clove (atleast that's what I think it was).Considering that the film is all about the leader of the GG, the magic, passion and the rawness just don't emerge. She excels in what she's the most graceful at but otherwise she just sparked intermittently.There was more than a kernel of a story and considering its the directorial debut of SS, a good effort. Much will be expected in the second outing though. The reason why I couldn't add in a better adjective is because of a number of reasons. The number of songs and their reasoning for them to be? And what's with the shoddy editing? Storytelling is an art - why butcher it?All in all it was a valiant effort and as I mentioned earlier given the sheer talent of SS, one expects a whole lot more.

ruthvika-angadi Needless to say, this movie is a must watch for everyone who enjoy good cinema. Although I planned to watch the movie only for the film's protagonist Madhuri Dixit, I was in for a big surprise. The cast is fantastically assembled. Madhuri and Juhi do tremendous justice to their roles; but the supporting cast takes the movie to the next level. Enough attention is given to the composition of the infamous gang, which comprises of women, young and old, fearless and fearsome, independent and needy, concerned and care-free. The script kept me on my toes guessing the backlash between good and evil. The transition between scenes is smooth and reminded me of good story telling. Action scenes are well choreographed and performed, and melodrama is kept to the minimum. The movie deals not only with injustice against women, but also with abuse of power. It's not patronizing in the least as good and evil are both portrayed by women. I think, this is a very clever move by the script writer. Songs were distracting, except a couple of them which suited the situation. Nevertheless, it was a treat to watch Madhuri shake a leg.All in all, an entertaining and enriching movie.

vinaysagar 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.
