Seriously, we need to become rebels against the people who have the courage to make such films. Get it? Rebel…courage…kranti…..yep! It’s as bad as that last contrived sentence and it gets worse like the explanation to the pun. And yes I’m that bored to ramble on like this

Back when we used to buy balcony tickets for 5 rupees, there was an ambitious director from Gujarat who started making Hindi films. Long since forgotten, his earlier works like Marte Dam Tak, Paap ki Aandhi & Aasman se Ooncha laid a strong foundation on which the recent Absurd wave in Bollywood is being built. Mehul struck gold in the mid 90’s with his high decibel Tirangaa, which remains his best work in the absurd genre and Krantiveer, a film that was to the 90’s what Arjun was to the 80’s and Deewar was to the 70’s – a reflection of the angst of that generation’s youth. In a year when the seeds he had sown early in his career have grown into a lush young tree, he returns with a sequel to the jewel in his crown, Krantiveer. And with this return, lays down a few lessons for budding aspirants of the absurd wave.
