Shakuntala Devi (2020)

Bollywood doesn’t know how to make a biopic; or maybe they don’t care as long as they’re making money. Direction: The plotline is incoherent, seems like it is taken straight from Wikipedia. This page has shakuntala devi 2020, watch online, shakuntala devi 2020 free download, full movie hd.

The movie just shows events happening without reasons, no story following up to the events. We rarely understand the mathematical genius that is Shakuntala Devi, because there’s very little story to it. Much of it is just unnecessary melodrama centring around a mother-daughter relationship.

This movie is an insult to one of the greatest India has ever produced. ACTING: Vidya Balan is at her worst, partly because of a lack of plot and tries hard to compensate for it. She’s over enthusiastic invariably, grins all the time – something very different from the actual Shakuntala Devi. She’s not jovial, she’s creepy.

Shakuntala Devi is an iconic woman in India and arguably,in the international realm too.She was a very strong personality and most famously had batted for LGBT rights way back in the 1970s.She was very vocal and upfront about her opinions.Thus,I expected atleast a part of this persona to be conveyed in the Amazon movie.

Vidya Balan as the lead was an added bonus.However,not only does the movie dilute the central character to the extent that she becomes cartoon-ish but it also fails to present a coherent narrative.It’s mildly infuriating to see the kind of disservice the movie does to the real Shakuntala Devi.Vidya Balan seems to be stuck in the “Tumhari Sulu” world of a bubbly,cheerful middle aged woman who is always ‘very happy’.The makers have tried to marry the Tumhari Sulu character with some elements of western musicals and it’s just…odd! The other actors are decent in their roles.However,the weak writing and the overall disconnect of the movie’s Shakuntala Devi with the real one pull it down.
