Just saw Superboys of Malegaon, a biographical film about a group of boys from the small town of Malegaon who build their own local film industry, making parody films of Bollywood classics. Shot in 4:3, it’s a delightful mix of passion, friendship, humor, and an emotional climax pic.twitter.com/YCuLF2uJcl
Absolutely loved Superboys of Malegaon. At its core it is the story of indomitable human spirit and how the little joys in life need to be cherished. Delightful is the most apt word for it I guess.
Superboys of Malegaon is a brilliant film. Incredible yet day-to-day story on real yet incredible people. Crisp direction by Reema Kagti. 10/10 for dialogues to @varungrover. 11/10 for acting. Vineet Singh & Shashank Arora are true actors who make you forget that they are actors.
Probably the most feel-good film of #TIFF24, Reema Kagti's "Superboys of Malegaon" transcends its biopic trappings to become a moving, rousing ode to scrappy creativity, DIY filmmaking, and the need for people to see themselves reflected in art. https://t.co/b7OISgW6Gj
It is a film that fails to really give you a sense of place, time or honest camaraderie. The screenplay is haphazard and it has the tendency to abruptly cut away from a scene just as the audience is getting drawn in 1/2
watched superboys of malegao yesterday and while the hygine of dialect and homage was well tended to, the superficiality and the fear of diving deeper into the lives of the struggles of malegaon residents was palpable, making it a vapid and hesitant production
Go back to theatres. Relive that experience. This dire msg during the Oscars reminded me of why a Superboys of Malegaon needs to be watched in a theatre. Streaming is fine but nothing can replace a theatrical moment. Catch it at a cinema near if you haven’t already !
