'DASVI' - 2022
The title refers to 10th standard or Matriculation level of education in India; it is a film about a some what corrupt politician making it an ego issue for himself when he is taunted at for being uneducated. He has been sent to the prison which is headed by much shorter and cuter female superintendent in front of whom Abhishek Bachchan's character seems literally like a towering figure; he finds himself insulted by her.
In order to escape the rigors of being in prison, at first he decides to take up studying to avoid the hard work but eventually the real bug bites him.
It is a very simple, cute, endearing film with all the characters being some what sweet and light. It IS a masala-type-ish film but it IS very different in its treatment.
I thoroughly enjoyed it. It even succeeded in making me tearful at one moment.
My ratings: 8/10 ********
