Jitendra Kotai Puberty brings a lot of curiosity with it. When you do not get any action you will frustrated. Sexual frustrations of Naman and friends is beautifully shown. Double standards of Brahmans are showcased in a very sarcastic way. This is a coming of age film that is quirky , weird and humorous. Loved all the dialouge in quiz language or geek langauge
Shashank Ramesh Yes, you read it right! An out n out comical saga set back in the 70's and 80's. The overall feel of the film makes one rewind back in time and replenish nostalgia. A quaint film with the backdrop of the Brahman culture brings out a lot of humour, and facts spot on. A teenage boy who is set on a journey to set free himself amid-st the many conventional notions associated with his religion imbibed to him since his childhood is portrayed wonderfully. The intricate detailing which epitomize the tradition, upbringing and adventures of teens back in the 80's is something which impressed me as an audience. The journey of Naman and his friends from his home-town to a different city is shown just to the point and back is portrayed aptly. The female characters who appear in the film have done a good job, specially Sindhu Sreenivasa Murthy (Ash) deserves a mention. A clever script executed with a simple approach making this a part of quality world cinema.Overall a good one hour and thirty minutes of pure comedy with a nostalgic feeling of Bangalore sums this up to be a good watch.
pjbhaumik Quashiq Mukherjee's Brahman Nahman hilariously lampooned collegiate coming of age in 1980's Indian bourgeoisie. Sindhu Sreenivasa Murthy played a highly loyal yet unrequited lover. Tanmay Dhanania and Chaitanya Varad acted as the venturesome sidekicks while recruiting Vaishwath Shankar who just wanted to fit in. Denzil Smith chaperoned the rambunctious conquest of the quiz team all-stars at the national quiz championship in Kolkata. Anula Navlekar was captivating while Subholina Sen was flirtatious to the rebellious nerd whom Shashank Arora portrayed. Ashok Mandanna depicted the nerd's orthodox yet lenient father whose factory near Bangalore University played the set for various antics. There were plenty of farcical scenes in this story of a youth society globally shrouded in conservatism and preexisting conventions.
Sankalp Khare Okay. So I watched this movie last night. I'm not sure what naysayers have against it, but I would most certainly recommend it to someone who's grown up in India. Even more so to someone who's been a 70s or 80s child. And really really very much to someone who's into trivia. And lastly to anyone who's been a young man in this country, wondering how to get the girls :) That being said, I'll list out some of the things that I loved about the movie --- 1) Look and feel: The movie has been shot remarkably well. The credits, the sets, the production.. it's all classy. Very nicely done. 2) The 80s feels: I do not know what the India of the 80s was like, but I was struck by how nicely they've tried to live true to the movie's setting. There were certainly things that I could relate to, having seen small town India in the 90s :) 3) Narrative, Editing & Direction: I cannot recall a single dull moment in the movie. The narrative grasps you right from the outset and does not let go till the end.
