Movie review: Matru Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola, Pankaj Kapoor shines

The show opens with a Landrover car demolishing a beer shop. Recalling 10 min before this act, drunkard Harry offers a Rs. 1000 note to the tender for a single bottle of beer which he in his traditional abusive language rejects. After the demolition, they cheer out with bottles in their hands. Just when I expect a pure Haryanvi comic-riot throughout the run time, the other unrequited occasions added with too many aspects mismatch with the concept.

Vishal Bhardwaj takes a satire on big politicians and their motives of money making. I still hold and hoped that this may be Bhardawaj's main issue to deal with by portraying socialism versus capitalism. But the issue is not practically dealt with.  Looking at some more loopholes, an aircraft crashing in a ploughed  field  is considered a UFO landing. It may be Bhardwaj's intention to reveal how uneducated farmers perceive such acts. But it proves to be non-essential. You wouldn't stop to compare with Akshay Kumar's ‘Tees Maar Khan' and ‘Joker' the way the things are dealt with.
