MOVIE REVIEW
SHILAJIT MITRA
The weakest of Anubhav Sinha's recent films

ANEK

DIRECTOR: Anubhav Sinha

CAST: Ayushmann Khurrana, Andrea Kevichüsa, Amir Hossain Ashik

ANUBHAV Sinha can direct. His last three films-Mulk, Article 15, Thappad were robustly argued ideological statements, but one could also find in them moments of genuine cinematic merit. In Anek, however, I could only find one. It comes too late in the film: a band of rebels picking their way through a dark forest, and dying one by one. For once, Anubhav is in his element, using movement and imagery to convey a thought. The rest of the film shows little and tells a lot.
