David (2013) Review by nishanthazhagu from India
In 2004 Mani Ratnam experimented with 'Yuva' which was an unusual taleof three different people and how their stories get entangled with eachothers. Later we saw many such types of films being made in our Hindifilm industry. Most of them followed the similar path what Mani Ratnamhas set apart, but then there were few who dared to attempt somethingdifferent. After receiving fantastic reviews for his debut film'Shaitan', Director Bejoy Nambiar comes up with his latest film 'David'which narrates the story of three different people sharing the samename but set in different era. So let's find out whether this movie toois on the similar grounds of 'Yuva' & other such movies or might set analtogether different benchmark.
'David' is story of Neil Nitin Mukesh Set in 1975 – London, VinayVirmani Set in 1999 – Mumbai & Chiyaan Vikram Set in 2011 – Goa.All of them share one thing in common & that's their name –David.Certain changes happen in their lives making life complicated for them.What do all these David do & how the story does unfold is what theentire film is all about.
All the three stories are unique & different. I personally loved theChiyaan Vikram followed by Neil Nitin Mukesh's stories. Vinay Virmani'sstory starts on interesting note but as movie progresses, the storystarts diluting in super speed. One might find bit uncomfortable in theinitial moments of the film as there are lot of stuff happening in thesilver screen. But as you get inside the skin of the film, you tend toenjoy it even more. Screenplay in first half is brilliant, second halfis also good but is super stretched thus lowering down the impact ofthe film. There are some brilliant moments like the whole attack overGhani, Vinay's daily routine, Naseer shaving in his passage, Vikram'schat with his friend followed by the whole brawl in the bar, Vikram &his mother looking for bride, Almost all Saurabh Shukla – Vikramscenes, Vikram convincing Prahlad Khakkar, Monica Dogra's support toNeil & many more.
On the the story of Vinay Virmani seemed bit weak in comparison toother chapters. Right from the reason of attacking Naseer to thecooperator revealing the truth to Vinay or even a stranger instigatinghim and few more did not turn up as they should have on the silverscreen. At few places the makers goofed up over the date's issues buton overall basis played brilliantly with the different time zone. Oneof the major flaw of the film is that it's too long, especially in thesecond half where it seemed over stretched. Dialogs by Tariq SiddiquiIn Neil Nitin Mukesh chapter deserve a special mention.
Camera work is fantastic. All the era's looked stunning especially theblack & white era and the whole Goa chapter looking total warm andcolorful. R. Rathnavelu, R. Madhi & Sejal Shah takes the cinematographyto another level. The whole movie is a visual treat, thanks to thesecreative guys. Editing is crisp in first half, wish it was the samelater on.
Music by various musicians bring the needed flavor in this film. Onemight enjoy 'Maria', 'Ghum Hue', 'Bande Ki Daastaan' & 'Damadum MastKalander'. Other songs fails to make impact.
Bejoy Nambiar chooses a different and stylish pattern to narrate histale. He is total opposite of what we saw him in his debut film –'Shaitan'. Out here he keeps you glued to silver screen with hiscreativity. The usage of different tones for all the different era goeswell with the flop of the film. He takes forward the art of technicaldirection, just the way genius like Mukul S Anand, Rajiv Menon orSantosh Sivan did in their times. Wished the director would havecontrolled his love for the longer script and trimmed down the film by20 Min's, the whole finale impact would've been more hard hitting.
Neil Nitin Mukesh looks fantastic and does his part with total justice.When it comes to Grey shade role he is perfect choice. Akarsh Khuranaas Ghani was total impressive. Monica Dogra looked great. NeilBhoopalam in small cameo does his part. Milind Soman might remind youof Kiran Kumar from Angaar. Ajinkya Dave, Nikhil Chinappa, Sarika doesgood special appearance. Vinay Vrmani looks cute and fits perfectly inhis role, wished he had some good writing attached to it. Nasser is aveteran classic actor who shines even in small role. Sheetal Menon isgreat support along with Rohini Hattangadi & Shweta Pandit. Lara Duttalooked bit healthy in her guest role. Satish Kaushik was total wasted.Chiyaan Vikram was hilarious in his rascal type role. He keepsentertaining you with his screen antics. Tabu is superb in her smallpart. Isha looks beautiful. Saurabh Shukla was fantastic. PrahladKhakkar, Remo and others were enjoyable.
Dumb Han in terms of brilliant direction, technical aspects, twoentertaining chapters and some decent performances along with gala ofgreat actors. A total treat for cinema lovers who love to see somethingcreative and out of the box, But the overall theme might be bitconfusing for the general audience as lots of stuff keeps happeningaround, making it hard for them to understand. Also the length of thefilm dilutes the theme of the film. Out of three stories I liked two,which reminded me of the famous idiom - Two's company, three's a crowd.
David (2013) Review by livinonprayer from India
OK, many people gave negative reviews because they were not able tokeep up with the plot. This movie has everything, action, drama,comedy, romance, tragedy, amazing cinematography, superb songs, andquite unique style of handling a movie.
Although superficially it may look like a movie with three protagonistwith same name 'David', last few minutes really define the movie nameand common string that holds all three stories together.
Some references to decide whether you'll like it or not
If you like Quentin Tarantino - Please go watch David
If you love rock music -just watch the movie for "Mast Kaladar" rockversion
If you can like Neil Nitin Mukesh - this is a must watch
If you like art movies - you are on borderline
If you like Amir Khan's performance in Talaash - you are on borderline
If you like Karan Johar movies - this is waste of money for you
If you love Shahrukh Khan - you'll hate this flick
If you like Amir Khan in 3Idiots - you won't like this one
Overall I am kind of disappointed it got so less collection at boxoffice. I might watch it again in theater.
David (2013) Review by rangdetumpy from India
Bejoy Nambier had brought in dark psychological cinema in a sleekfashion & raised the bar with "Shaitan". With "David" he only sealedthe fact that he is a consummate artist.
David is about three "Davids" in different places & time-zones & howthey are connected by destinies.
David #1-Set in 1975 London, David(Neil Nitin) is the side-kick of aninfamous gangster Ghani. A sharp shooter & a Ghani loyalist, David'slife takes a turn when some arcane matters regarding his origin comesto surface which challenges his relationship with Ghani.
David #2-Set in the 90s Mumbai David (Vinay Bimani) is an energeticaspiring rock-star who aims big. Like any regular guy he loves hisfamily even though there is an ideological tension with his father whois an incorrigible optimist & a philanthropist. The father-sonproximity develops when a Hindu fundamentalist with a sinister motivetries to malign his Christian father to rise up the political ladder bymaneuvering "religious" sentiments. The incident gives birth to a newDavid who takes the risky path to unravel dark societal realities.
David #3-Set in 2010 Goa, David (Vikram) is an inveterate drinkerhaving a sad history of his wife leaving him on the wedding day. Fromthereon he becomes the object of "bad luck" in his region. With atroubled existence he is in search for true love which comes in form ofbeautiful "roma" who is the fiancée of his best friend Peter.
The beauty of Nambier's film is the structural & thematic similarity ofthe three stories that move in parallel. The film starts with a glimpseof the climax and goes back to the genesis of each segment. Each of thestories reflect father-son relationship and the trajectory isthematically same. Each "David" is fighting their inner Goliath as theychoose the path of redemption. While "Shaitan" gave us a glimpse of howthe darker side have the potential to control human psyche, "David"explores the world of truth & forgiveness amidst dark & unpleasanttimes. "David" shreds their past anguish, forgives their presentenormity & fight against their inner Goliath to shape a peacefulfuture. That's what makes a "David' stand out from the crowd. He may bealone but not shaken.
Nambier's eye for detailing is tremendous & every frame looks carefullyedged out. The unconventional camera angles provided the extra zilch.
The Varughese's cinematography & photography department demands awardsfor their excellence. The story set in London had the neo-noirish lookwith sleek black-and-white frames adding in credibility to the gangsterstory. The action sequences in both the London as well as Mumbaistories are 'choreographed" with precision. Ejaz Gulab's stunt is oneof the best in recent times (along with brilliant action sequences oftechnical marvel "Viswaroop").veteran Shreekar Prasad's editing joinsthe story sensibly without confusing the viewers. Background &foreground are rocking and gels with the mood of the film adding extraweight to the proceedings. Two men fighting in the cage during"Mastakalander" song is a master stroke.
Nambier & Sehgal's script is apt. The characterization is superb. Theidea of David (the one in Goa) talking to his father's ghost is simpleout-of-the world. The wacky yet cute sequences of father-son arefresh,honest,touching & funny.
Amongst the actors all the Davids gave a commendable performance withVikram scoring a little high over others.It is heartening to see atremendous actress like Rohini Hattangadi getting such a powerful role& as a immoral Hindu fundamentalist she expressed devil through hereyes.Saurabh Shukla, another tremendous under-rated talent impresses asghost of David's father.Tabu rocked in a significant cameo in a role ofa true friend, philosopher & guide of David.Veteran Naseer excels asfather Noyal.Neil Bhopalam,Monica Dogra,Shweta Pandit,Shetal Menon madetheir presence felt. Isha Shravani as Roma seriously looked like anangel.Lara Dutta's track looked forced.
Nambiers film gives a message on the path to righteousness with acaptivating narrative.It could have been a superlative experience like"shaitan" but thanks to the dragged second half it misses out frombeing a masterpiece.Also the stories could have been more compact formore impact. Nevertheless David is fine celluloid attempt which needsto be appreciated for its innovative execution. Looking forward to allNambier's films in future..
'Spoiler' P.S : Couldn't resist myself from writing about a particularsequence from the film.In the second story there is a discerningsequence which is an eye-opener to the god-fearing society. Like otherbusiness "God" has become a subject of business with'bhagwan",'allah',"jesus" being different brands created by people withvested interests. It is analogous to "undergarments" business wherebypeople wear their own brands even though all of them are the samething. Like depicted in "OMG" those people have no religion & theymanipulate religion for their own benefit. In the process the commonman knowingly or unknowingly suffers.
