Amazon Mini TV Sorry Bhaaisaab review
Rekindling those Do Dooni Chaar, Khosla Ka Ghosla on big screen and Yeh Jo Hai Zindagi, Rajani kind of memnories on small screen, writer director Suman Adhikary and Sumit Ghildiyal give a relatable slice of life with a quirky sly end.
Cashing on the Delhi based middle class milieu Sorry Bhaaisaab is a short and sweet journey of desire, need, greed, hope, faith and fate.
It’s ironical and well as comical, the 20 od minute short sees the ever dependable Sharib Hashmi as Mr Gupta pitching in perfectly and flawlessly performing to the core.
Gauahar Khan as Mrs Gupta ( less glamour more charm) is a pleasant surprise and she delivers very well.
Suman Adhikary and Sumit Ghildiyal ensure that a relatable atmosphere is maintained throughout and proper care is taken regarding the settings, other characters – the grocery shop owner, the neighbors, lingo etc.
Flaws
Some vital points are missed and the climax though sly and pointing comes with feeble establishment resulting in the robber becoming too metaphoric for a ‘common man’ to understand.
Final words
Anyways, ‘Sorry Bhaisaab’ is a sly, relatable & funny take on the sorry state of a common man bole toh ‘aam aadmi’.
