Jhankar Beats turned out to be an enjoyable movie! Also saw the worst movie of the season, Khwaish, on the same day. Movie making needs a certain understanding of how it will be received from the viewers perspective; what is being delivered in 2-3 hours time, irrespective of what message one is trying to put across. Example, Jhankar, although made at an amateur level and hardly had a story line, created a world / environment / experience one could relate to. Jokes and dialogues bordering on sex need to be handled with care too. Jhankar made it sound funny, whereas in Khwaish, it was almost vulgar. The way the condom issue was handled in both the flicks were so different in portrayal. One thing about Rahul Bose, every role he's played are so different in nature. In 'Everybody say I'm fine' and even in Jhankar, he fears not redicule on self, which makes him an entertainer, and he's smart. Knows how to do it. Anyone who can master emotions and sees the matrix of connecting to people at different levels of personal interest, will truly go ahead to make entertaining, memorable content worth the recall. This guy's going a long way...
