Anek Full Movie Download HDFRiday

Anubhav Sinhas Anek is a gripping layered narrative about efforts to negotiate a peace treaty in the North East India with a separatist group a process that has gone on for decades without a conclusion. A covert operative Aman Ayushmann Khurrana who goes by the alias Joshua is tasked with creating a situation that brings Tiger Sangha Loitongbam Dorendra the top rebel leader of the region to the negotiation table. Along the way Aman finds that everything isnt as black and white as he had initially thought and finds himself conflicted emotionally and professionally.With conversational dialogues interspersed throughout the narrative Anek brings you face to face with the undercurrents of discrimination and alienation from mainland India that exist in different pockets of the northeast. At times uncomfortably so but then that is the intent of the narration. Anubhav Sinha doesnt use heavy duty seetimaar lines or overt jingoism. What works here is subtlety in the dialogues and performances and some nuanced writing that brings out the essence of the grey that Anubhav Sinha set out to depict through the film.Anek through its runtime draws subtle parallels between the northeast and other parts of the country in particular Jammu and Kashmir. For instance Manoj Pahwas character Abrar Butt Amans superior and a Kashmiri himself looks out of an airplanes window while on a flight to the northeast. Taking in the breathtaking view he says Agar Firdaus bar Roo e Zameen Ast Hameen Ast o Aameen ast o Hameen Ast Khusros well known line that describes the picturesque beauty of Kashmir. Through the window of that plane the director offers you a glimpse of the outer beauty and inner turmoil of both regions.The film is engaging but it could have done with a tighter screen time by trimming 5 10 minutes . Its a tad slow pre interval and comparatively fast paced post that and unpacks a lot in that timespan.With some powerful performances by Ayushmann Khurrana Manoj Pahwa Andrea Kevichsa Kumud Mishra Loitongbam Dorendra and JD Chakraverti the film leaves the audience with plenty of unsettling questions primarily what makes you an Indian. The use of silences regional dialect folk songs and the background score the production design the visual tone cinematography and action pieces lend themselves well to the narrative.Anubhav Sinha continues his run as a conscience keeper of sorts making one film after another Mulk Article 15 Thappad that force you to think about equality and justice in the context of religion caste gender and now region.

ANEK 8.2 1st half 6.5 2nd half. Overall 7.510 more weightage to first half these days as if that isnt fancy nobody will go till the endIt opens a new door to Indian cinema which talks about geo politics of the most complicated democracy in the world with 22 official languages with no national language and national sport as such. Why Well it isnt democratic yet to decide on one the very oneness we miss as a country. This film lays bare the very dirty and polluted politics of India and its policies to deal with separatists. We Indians are at one side and the separatists toil to scramble the ladder of recognition but they are pulled back with two choices either die or chant Jai Hind and be with us. Quite not fair right Well for the majority of us it is fair. The India is politics and not its people.Ayushmans best work so far with no flaw as such. The North east crew was quite brilliant. I loved the way they hid the state name and all jeeps had NE on their name plates. Great direction. Punchy dialogues. A bit lenghty and boring in the second half as the prologue of the movie in the first half was covered fantastically and it was all about executing that in the 2nd half with a bitter and gory war at 3 fronts. Wont give spoilers. Do not just join the bandwagon of that population which doesnt even watch and start criticizing just by seeing the names. A great movie buff decides all by himself. A must watch to know this side as well.

Many of us have already witnessed that movies of this genre deviate from the truth to appeal large group of audiences. However this one is an example of bold film making. An eye opener for everyone patriots and nationalists both.Well the sky is falling and we have lot of turkeys in the audience seat for whom the only solution is to dip your head in the sand during uncomfortable situations and during this period you try to deliver an eye opener and you expect it to succeed.This one is an Oscar entry but wont be tolerated at the box office of todays India.Kudos To the whole team of aNEk.

ANEk rides on the Ayushmann Khurrana platform of socially aware films but starts and ends with the mic passed on to the actor whose story is being told. This is a step in the right direction. It corrects what Aysuhmanns last film left to be desired. However Anek isnt just about the North East region of India. Anek is ambitious. Almost too ambitious for its own good. Its less film and more an idea. The idea of moving towards participatory democracy. The idea of India transitioning into the United States of India.Anubhav Sinha is a fantastic questioner. You can see that he hates leaving any question unasked and that habit is at the forefront in this film. His questions are often challenging and occasionally even existential. The hope is that his insatiable urge of asking questions will rub off on the moviegoers and will make them imbibe critical thinking that our education system has largely kept at bay.The movie stays on brand with this theme and even ends with a question. Reasoning is simple. The film wants the public to come up with answers to those questions instead of being didactic about its point. And the film does its job of giving every side enough footage to appear unbiased the government the disillusioned government officer the politicised rebel group the militant group who represents the voice of the people the group whose entire struggle is nudging mainland India to recognise them for real and not just on paper. Unlike other political thrillers this film is extremely nuanced. So much so that Ive seen people thinking its muddled because of it. Its a fair concern because the film is noticeably marred by what I call as the Batman vs Superman syndrome.The editor has done the entire crew dirty. Their job is so choppy that it does terrible injustice towards everyone else from the actors to writers to cinematographers all of whom have done a near perfect job. There are scenes where you can actually tell that they were cut to shorten the film and thus end up being pointless. There are also a few plotholes why is Joshua having a change of heart 3 years into his stay in the unnamed state of the NE which demand a level of suspension of disbelief that you dont expect from a film this rooted in reality. Add to that the production value of the film is cheap probably because of its tight budget.Ayushmann Khurrana however does his level best to carry this film despite all its shortcomings. His performance lifts the film and keeps you engaged even when the editing zones you out. His shades of gray are more impressive than his transition into the empathetic man the latter he has done often throughout his career. Watch out for his scene right after the viral North South language scene. Its a career high award worthy performance that involves a nihilistic question that is bound to make literally everyone uncomfortable and ends with a statement that would rile up a large chunk of his audience. Its a shame though that the film doesnt give him enough action sequences because the man was bulked up enough to pull it off. Andrea does a phenomenal job for a debutante. She is consistent throughout the film. Seasoned actors Kumud Mishra Manoj Pahwa and Loitongbam Dorendra live up to their names specially the latter two who get ample footage in the film.Despite all the issues that plague this film its highs are so thoroughly engaging and leave such a slow burner impact on you with its very relevant questions that they almost make up for the lows. Hopefully we will get the directors cut of this film someday which would do justice to it.

First people need to understand the situation in the NE before watching this film . Only then will they understand.Second this is not for masses. It is for the audience of the highest class. So please if you come across reviews saying slow boring etc prolly they are masala film fans. You are watching a film that requires your utmost attention otherwise everything will go over head and this is where the highest class audience excel at that is paying attention.Now coming to the main film the makers have tried to include literally 3 4 plots into a 2hr 30 mins film an operation to keep peace a sports angle the Tiger Sangha angle etc. Had they focused on only the rebels story this film would have been terrific but sadly juggling between one plot to another you really cannot digest everything even the best audience cant. They come to watch a film with a proper one plot and at the max 2 plot film but this one has too many to digest this is where Anek falters big time.Setting of this film is great. Gives off proper NE vibes . The action sequences are few but are well choreographed despite limited budget. The one where the Johnson rebels get cornered in a small jungle that part is really well made. The sequence following that made me emotional.The 1st half requires your utmost attention while the 2nd half is quite interesting.Ayushmann khurana has finally ventured into a different kind of social message film. A first timer as an agent he does a commendable job. Rest everyone have also done a terrific job especially that little boy who joins the Johnson army.Another negative is it gets too preachy often and they disrupt the flow of the film.Overall a good one time watch only if you are ready to watch patiently about an important topic.

Ayushman an actor with some real guts instead of making fantasy and money making movies like RRR he has guts to portray the society with its hypocrisy. Go watch this movie to reform yourselves to be a better citizen respect each ethnicity watch for serene beauty of North east.

Politicians dont like peace. Masses love it. Beautiful movie. How to identify we are Indians If Hyderabad people start calling Pune people North Indian... If every state has a different theme or anthem... What about India as an identityHow to identify different straits or identities We still consider east side people as Chinese. We as Indians think only what is been shown till date.KGF2 dialogue of Nepotism has not been gobbled and digested by Bollywood who infact have swept Dadasaheb Falke family.Satyajit Ray and there are innumerable south Indian stars who contributed to Indian cinemas.But Anek movie calls you to watch it full screen and understand what an Indian is all about

Its not a movie worth for entertainment.... Its certainly not made for that.. The picture would make you aware of the circumstances which are probably faced by the living citizens of North East... And its not probably about North East about majority of the Indian states are eventually disregarded or are made discriminated with the United power of India by some racial remarks to be honest... The picture just brings out the mentioned issue infront of all... The plot has been exaggerated a little so the ratings have been cut upon that but i wont say that the gist is wrong... In the end the choice is all yours if you would wanna watch it or not... But pls kindly dont expect it to be a entertaining one cause the issues are not...

I would say every Indian must watch this movie a completely different plot.Nowadays no one is making such content when we say INDIA or INDIAN what does it actually mean. INDIA is majorly identified as Mumbai and Delhi but its actually all the small northern states also part of same country. We make fun of them look like Chinese but they are also Indian. In almost every Hindi cinema every character and story revolves around big cities no one tries to represent them as Indian.

This is the most accurate representation of India i have ever seen Anubhav Sinha did a great job directing itit had the truth about how do you become Indian without being called a North Indian a South Indian how do you become Indian.On one side there is Indian government and other side there are the rebels who dont want India there and then there is Ido whos trying to represent India through boxing everyones fighting their own fight.Everyone did a great job ayushman the writers cinematographers editors music everything was perfect.It is a must watch movie for everyone.

Sameer lodaya.The movie is on a baseless story of north East Indian statesThe makers have portrait a story of separatists in North Indian states..Ayushmann the undercover cop who has been appointed for peace between india and this separatists have failed to execute and played nothing special also had very less screen time as a main lead..the directors punch like his last movie article 15 was not at all there..the characters like female boxer and teenager rebel has been unnecessarily created and most of the time is wasted keeping aside the main story..baseless allegations on india for keeping aside North Indian people is not helping the content to get strong..power punch dialogues or scenes were not felt .. Long fighting scenes without Ayushmann was also a big wasteYou wont be entertained or gain anything from this movie.

Ayushmann. Nailed it every aspect of it. After article 15. The same duo. Abhinav. Sir. Great Movie. Loved it.that. Interrogation Scene is supreme. Ayushmman every time never disappoint.

Which world these people live in and what do such filmmakers think of India. I dont think they have a feeling of being Indian. So whatever is the problem blame the government and whole left out majority of country. Even after getting represented and winning many medals across many international competitions getting a world class infrastructure in healthcare and education getting representation in Apex positions of government and administration a huge presence in army with like 2 3 dedicated north eastern regiments but still they have a point Indians dont respect north eastern states. WOW . Just fill the society with hatred against the government and against the majority of the country for no reason. Can you name one society on whole earth which exists without problems. This movie is a disgusting crap at every level not one place they have talked about illegal immigrants but just kept ranting about bad government attitude and how seperatist are right in their own view. Seriously there should be a point when freedom of expression should be questioned.

A movie justifying terrorism. Why did Ayushmann Khurrana sign this movie This movie comes in the category of haider shikara tango Charlie raazi etc. Story screenplay and dialogues are very bad.

Anek 2022 Movie Review Ayushmann Khurrana is truly a content boy of Bollywood cinema. He has given back to back content driven films which no other Bollywood actor from his generation has managed to do. He has always chosen the right subject and every time it was a different topic. With Anek he has brought a new topic to light but the film eventually goes dim. Ayushmann and Anubhav Sinhaas previous outing Article 15 2019 is one of my favourite films from recent times and undoubtedly the best work of the duo to date. Anek brings them together for another important and serious topic but the duo fails to deliver what we were expecting from them.The film deals with a hard hitting subject which has been untouched till date but goes wrong with the storytelling that hasnt got anything for the regular moviegoers. A wannabe patriotic film with no jingoism. Well thats not the main issue but its an issue anyway. The biggest issue is the slow paced narrative that fails to hold your attention. Anek is a socio political action thriller set against the geopolitical backdrop of Northeast India. However intricate that sounds while reading the film is one step ahead in complexity. The film focuses on an undercover cop Aman aka Joshua Ayushmann Khurrana who is on a mission to restore peace in the Northeastern region of India. Aida Andrea Kevichsa is a talented boxer who has been humiliated for years as a non Indian due to the culture and appearance of the north east. Joshua encourages her to play for India while he is being dragged into a political conspiracy that intends to keep the war going. Its his opinion vs. Political decisions but there are a lot of dedal speeches that make it a powerful story. However the screenplay is too slow to count you in for a show as you almost find it as effective as a sleeping pill.Ayushmann Khurrana has given many fine performances and with each film he has raised the bar for himself. With Anek he doesnt raise it higher but certainly remains on his own level. The character of AmanJoshua hasnt got enough shade to show him his calibre. He has one accent and one attitude throughout the film which is too common for an undercover cop. There are no such intelligent moves for either which could have made his character much more interesting and versatile. Nevertheless he carries the entire film on his shoulder and thats enough for this lacklustre film. Andrea Kevichsa gets a forgettable role in her debut. Cant say horrible but her character is not accessible for the common viewer. Its not just the accent but the entire personality that keeps it away from the mainstream audience and after all the struggle all it has to offer is predictable drama. Manoj Pahwa was such a gem in Article 15 but here his talent has been wasted. Or maybe the intricate structure of the character made it look so Not sure. Its such a complex mix even from the writers perspective that you dont connect with any of the supporting characters in the film. Deeplina Deka J. D. Chakravarthy Kumud Mishra and Loitongbam Dorendra are decent but nothing that stays in your mind.The technical aspects of Anek have fared better than expected. The background score works well on a few occasions with a few irritating overloud segments. Also the action sequences are too real hence they feel like documentary footage. Ewan Mulligans camerwork is fine whereas Anurag Saikias songs have found the essence but not the beats. Anek couldve been easily trimmed but its the same name again that makes it dull. Yasha Ramchandanis editing made Thappad a pretty boring affair and Anek has joined the same club. One strong point is dialogue. Hard hitting and meaningful.Anubhav Sinhaa is one such director I started to look up to when he delivered back to back good films like Mulk 2018 and Article 15 2019 after films like Cash 2007 Ra. One 2011 and Tum Bin 2 2016. But then he lost the form with Thappad 2020 despite putting his hands into another challenging subject and now Anek makes it two in a row. First its Sinhaas writing at fault here then its direction. Anek seems so clueless and off track for more than half of its runtime that you cant make head or tail of it. The new characters suddenly come into the picture some suddenly disappear and most of the time its the linear equation that seems lost. Anubhav Sinha repeats the same mistake. He keeps his narrative too serious and intense unnecessarily. Also the long runtime makes it a boring seminar. Anek has no commercial appeal at all but it doesnt even have that much artistic value to be called a good attempt at art cinema. As a whole the film has an important concept but fails to live up to the hype that the subject needed. If you loved Thappad then youll like Anek too but if you loved Article 15 more then its better you watch the same film again.RATING 410

Must watch movie apart from representation the need for such topic in India is very much required it is hightime we acknowledge our own brother and sisters from our very own parts of vibrant India.In the first half it looks like we are watching Part 2 of some movie and do not know whats happening Or why the kid Niko was so important that everybody were trying to save him But by the second half it slowly dawns on you that its about overall naxal conflicts of the east and it wouldve been helpful if we knew more about east Indias issues.Just like Vikas from panchayat would say its all about Poltics sir.. poltics.

Theres no denying the fact that India is a nation thats divided by race region religion language caste colour economic class and what not. The country is criss crossed by fault lines everywhere some prominent and known to all and some others hidden away with lava boiling underneath ready to spew fire and ash any time. Anek helmed by Anubhav Sinha is a narrative on one such fault line that lies in the North East that is not a subject thats on your face as the media doesnt project it as an issue and therefore it isnt on your face. The North Eastern states rich with natural beauty and resources and a culture thats yet to find itself integrated with the rest of the nation are less fortunate due to a lack of development and mired under several constitutional provisions. So who will make that effort to make them inclusive accessible economically equal and culturally united with the rest When shall we start treating our brothers and sisters there with dignity respect and compassion so they may integrate easily into what we call our motherlandAnek isnt your usual Mission Kashmir theres no fairytale being woven. It is a sombre submission of the state of affairs of the North East where people run a lack if development and are yet reluctant to leave home to go to greener pastures elsewhere to seek a living as they are aware that the rest of the nation doesnt treat them equally or well. Insurgency simmers and there are leaders who stoke the fire on the one hand and there are other powerful people who claim to be representing the people but actually filling their own coffers with the government aid. Then there are bureaucrats from the government who project themselves as supporters of the peoples cause but only on the face of it theres an altogether different intent playing in the background. With all of this Anek makes a valiant effort to showcase the issues and raise an awareness in all earnest. It is a subject noire that highlights the chasm that separates the North East from the rest of the union and doesnt provide a comfortable situation. Whilst being true to the problem though the film often goes into a documentary mode and doesnt offer a solution. Ayushmann Khurana is fantastic as usual and Kumud Mishra and Manoj Pahwa add gravitas. Andrea Kevichusa plays Aido the singular ray of hope who challenges status quo and shines in the role of Aido. The progress is rather slow and theres no scope for humour in the movie. Anek is for those who dont visit the theatre for just entertainment but are ready to face the hard facts and embrace them.

Good movie to watch for especially the movie is about northeast people and their relationships with India ayushaman khuranna rocks in the movie this movie explores different subject.

Loses itself within parallelism of what it means to be Indian. Anubhav Sinhas sheer authenticity brought social and political concerns but many of em were dreadfully disjointed. At least Ayushmann and newcomer Kevichusa tried something different for good reasons.

Not for masses since it is not masala movie However educated sector will certianly relish it Outstanding acting direction and screenplay Hats off to Anubhav

Thats the bitter truth just cant understand why so much of negativity. Every thing was very good in it. Anubhav sir and his hard hitting content. I wish everyone should watch it and every Indian should know our states name with their proper location. Jitega kon People of

Its a good movie but not engaging. The director could have done better to keep audience glued. Ayushman does experimental movies and he is great. Andrea was good in her debut. The movie gives a humble message to all Indians that we are representing India first and every voice matters. Its a political movie and many might not like it. But again you cannot make everyone happy in this world just do your job.
