Twitter is buzzing with stories about “Malang”s popularity among the viewers in India, which most probably will remain a purely local thing, considering the extensive use of the local film tropes. This Netflix thriller with strong drama elements is a tough cookie to chew, not just in terms of the actual plot that bounces back and forth until the half of the film, but also related to its very structure. Is it a romance, a tragedy, a revenge musical thriller, a parody, or is it maybe a promotion reel by the Goa tourism development corporation? It would be very disappointing to hear that the latter played no role in the plotting of “Malang”, granted that a seven minute long footage of parachuting, water-skiing, cad-driving, diving, just to mention a few, would otherwise mean laziness in building a picture of a real-life bonding between two people.
