5 Reasons Why You Should Be Watching Amitabh-Taapsee's Badla This Weekend!
The women's day weekend is approaching and this weekend we have interesting films coming up. While on one hand, we will have two amazing Bollywood releases- Sujoy Ghosh's Badla and Ritesh Batra's Photograph, we will also have a big Hollywood release with Captain Marvel. This is one weekend that will prove to be a delight for cinema lovers. Since we have tough choices to make here for this weekend, we have decided to help you out with your choices.
Badla is going to be one of the thrillers that will see the return of Sujoy Ghosh and this time, once again, he will reunite with Amitabh Bachchan. But let's have a look at some more reason to watch this film:
1. It's the official remake of the Spanish film Contratiempo
Contratiempo or The Invisible Guest is a Spanish film that was highly popular and even though it opened to lukewarm response, the film did well with word of mouth and got a lot of high ratings from users in many movie rating websites. The film was an edge of the seat thriller and with Sujoy Ghosh spear-heading it, we can expect a brilliant thriller with Badla as well.
2. Sujoy Ghosh's comeback
After Kahaani 2, Sujoy Ghosh had not directed anything. In fact, he had directed a short film called Anukul, which was also popular. After 2016, Badla will mark his kind of comeback and we just can not wait to see another thriller by this immensely talented director.
3. Taapsee-Amitabh
Badla will bring back Amitabh Bachchan and Taapsee Pannu together after Pink. The film will have Taapsee play a victim once again and Amitabh Bachchan plays a lawyer. In fact, we are expecting some courtroom drama as well and this is giving us major Pink vibes.
4. Bollywood murder mysteries
The number of murder mysteries produced in Bollywood is a handful. The last one made was Ittefaq, that was also a remake of another Hindi film of the same name. Given that it would be helmed by Sujoy Ghosh and boasts of some of the most talented star cast, it is already getting us excited.
5. Shah Rukh Khan's cameo
If reports are to be believed, then SRK, who is the producer of the film, will have a cameo in this film. Some also suggested that he might have an extended cameo. And who doesn't want to watch SRK on-screen really?
