Its about the journey of 3 people; Devi Pathak (Richa Chadda) - who's recovering after her boyfriend's death, Deepak Chaudhary (Vicky Kaushal) - who burns dead bodies for money, falls in love with an upper caste girl and Vidyadhar Pathak - Devi's dad (Sanjay Mishra) - who is very concerned about her image in the society and his struggles in doing so. 3 parallel lives passing by simultaneously in Benaras, along the shore of river Ganga.
The director (Neeraj G.) keeps it very simple and doesn't try too hard to impress the audience. Their Life just passes right in front of you; it makes you cry, laugh, smile, emotional, sad, angry & fall in love with them. Cinematographer Avinash Arun treats every frame very delicately and makes it look very natural; almost like a painting. Exploring the dark parts of Benaras as well. Writing is good - keeps it raw & real. The music is peaceful and has that connect with you...Casting is perfect & Acting is very natural from all the actors, being the soul of 'Masaan'. All of this comes together beautifully, creating something wonderful. The language, accent, characters, look and feel of the movie, stays with you...
A movie to be felt, not watched. It'll stay with you...
Its Beautiful, but may not be for everyone... You need to be a cinema lover to appreciate it.
