Review of Zwigato

Zwigato (2022)
5/10
Good concept, poor delivery
18 March 2023
Kapil Sharma is back on big screen after years of break. The expectations were set high after the trailer release. But in reality, the film fails to deliver it for the most part.

Pretty much everything was revealed in trailer itself. Most audience are curious to witness the climax. But with Zwigato, even the climax is a miss. One never knows where the film began, where it is going and where it ended. It was too abstract for a movie.

The effort of the director to earn respect for gig workers is the only thing that actually succeeded. It does touch the softer side of audience. But did it really require a 2 hour movie for it? I don't believe so. Everything one sees in the movie was actually present in trailer itself. The predictability element was way too high.

Kapil Sharma plays his part well and connects with audience due to the common man looks and the familiarity. Shahana Goswami does great job playing as a loving and caring wife and earns sympathy of audience for the struggle that the underprivileged go through.

Overall this is strictly an one time watch OTT movie at max. One can avoid that too by just watching the trailer because the movie didn't have anything interesting per se, which was already not shown in trailer.
