TSI Five-O: A gritty package of some subtle and some not so subtle satire
There are moments in 'Peepli Live' that will make you laugh hard, and the next instant you will overcome with extreme guilt as you realise what you just laughed at. The satire, though sometimes overblown, works brilliantly well with the realistic setting and finely etched characters in holding up the stark reality of rural India to our faces. The ensemble cast (mostly drawn from theatre) blends into the rustic landscape with ease and Anusha Rizvi's direction relies on handheld shots to add an extra coat of realism to the village of Peepli in Mukhya Pradesh. Peepli becomes the eye of a media storm and political frenzy when a marginal farmer Natha announces that he's committing suicide after being unable to pay back his loan. The grand posturing begins for everybody from the central government to the local politicians to every journo worth his 'breaking news' salt as they cash in on Natha's queer fate. Budhiya, the instigator of Natha's decision is played superbly by Raghubir Yadav while Omkar Das as Natha will force you to introspect.
'Peepli Live' is a film that will severely test your sensibility ' after all, it is hard to digest the fact that a serious issue is being made fun of. But that tone is what sets the film apart and also lends solidity to its decrying of the media as publicity hungry hounds insensitive to the human condition. To laugh or not to laugh is your choice, but the decision to give 'Peepli Live' a watch is a no brainer.
