Chaani jo khaak to mitt ke sona, tu ban gaya

Chaani jo khaak to mitt ke sona, tu ban gaya
Ghamon ki aag mein tap ke suraj, tu ban gaya

Chaani jo khaak to mitt ke sona, tu ban gaya
Ghamon ki aag mein tap ke suraj, tu ban gaya
Aaj paaya hai tune, sab kho ke mureeda
Mili jannat tujhe to, jab bigda naseeba

Haathon se nikli manzil jab yeh daaman chooth gaya
Aye bekhabar tu benoor ho ke roshan ho gaya
Bhari yeh khaali si jholi jo tu bhatka dar badar
Yeh bhi na jaane yeh kaafir ki dua ka hai asar
Jo taare se toota, sab khwaish milegi
Zara haathon ko phelaa, mannatein sab milengi
(Fakeera) - 5

Hua tabah aur hadd se zyada khoya jab qaraar
Udhi udhi tab saansein jaise udta hai gubaar
Socha kare kis pal mein dil ko raahat hai mili
Khuda ke ghar mein taalim tujhko gir ke jab mili
Aaj paya hai tune, sab kho ke mureeda
Mili jannat tujhe to jab bigda naseeba
(Fakeera) - 5

Badmaash Company is a smart film !

There's a longish sequence in an American eatery in the second-half of this deeply flawed and yet refreshingly cool urbane casual and yet highly cinematic work where Shahid Kapoor's Karan, by now on the road to seemingly irredeemable moral degeneration is told by his partner, played by newcomer Vir Das, that he wants out.

The way that sequence progresses and the manner in which the two actors play out a conventional friends-falling-apart moment, just makes you forgive all the excesses of inflated self-worth that the script suffers from in the last 90 minutes of this endearing though exasperating experience.



Badmaash Company is a film that is too smart for its own good. The main characters, four friends bonded by the collective will to grow rich overnight, go through a series of caper experiences. Not all of it is either convincing or even interesting. After a point, we know exactly where this quartet is hurling to. And the slide out of moral degeneration is never touching enough to make us shed a tear for these misguided over-reachers.

The doom comes none too soon, and then the narrative proceeds without a proper graph. By the time Karan (Shahid Kapoor)'s spunky girl Bulbul (Anushka Sharma) leaves him the script begins to look like one of those subverted morality tales from the house of the Bhatts where the heroes talk with clenched fists and heroines weep in their pillows as their companions come home in a drunken stupor.

Badmaash Company We've been here before. But wait. There is a sense of intuitive cockiness about the narrative which just sees the film's improbable mixture of the trendy and the trite(in how many ways will the upright father ask the devil-may-care son to leave home as the mother bites her lips and wrings her hands???) to the final stretch of predictable moral redemption.

There is a sense of the predictable and yet the unpredictable in the storytelling. Debutant director Parmeet Sethi's screenplay is one of those things that you want to believe merely because it sounds so smart on paper. But not all of this makes complete or even incomplete sense. The climax about colour-bleeding shirts being sold to America as the Next Best Thing is much too far-fetched to work even as a part of a con caper.

Nonetheless Badmaash Company has a lot going for itself. The first-half when Karan meets Bulbul, Chandu and Chang to create an instantly materialistic energy, gets you interested in these out-of-control lives. You don't quite empathize with their overweening goals. But at least they seem to know their minds, even if on occasions the plot doesn't seem to know what its doing.

There's something pitch-friendly about the four actors and the way they tackle the plot -material which never seems fully sure of itself. It's sometimes cool sometimes over-reaching itself.

Badmaash Company If the film holds together it's because of the bonafide enthusiasm and unconditional surrender to the proceedings of the actors.

Shahid Kapoor pitches in another perfectly poised and subtle performance even though his character's graph gets blurred towards the end. You can't stop caring for Karan's character because Shahid doesn't let go of his centre even when the narrative gets shaky. Anushka Sharma in a stunning makeover conveys her character's spirit and spunk through her well-toned body language and that twinkle in the eye. Tragically a lot of her speech and morality, and this goes for a lot of film's careless periodicity, is not 1990s (the film's setting) at all.

Vir Das as the film buff with a roving eye negotiates his character with gentle care. Here's one actor who knows what he's doing even when his character doesn't. And Meiyang Chang as the chinky-eyed alcohol guzzling Gangtok-guy seems made for his character.

Badmaash Company is an extremely smart and smart-looking film. But its sassy all-knowing tone cannot hide a certain bankruptcy of genuinely inventive ideas. This is a fatally-flawed film about seriously flawed characters. The packaging is glamorous but not over-done. The dialogues convey a ring of truth without bending backwards to be cool.

And though guilty of extravagant flights of fancy (the way our quartet of protagonists plunder the American Dream can only be called wishful thinking) Badmaash Company has enough going for itself to make it an experience worth our while.

And never mind the blind spots. Whoever said life in the movies was meant to be a bed of roses?

Badmaash Company Reviews !

What is it all about?

‘Badmaash Company’ is a film about guys in haste who wanna smell money as soon as possible, the movie has a ‘real’ feel to it. Efforts can be seen in first timer Parmeet Sethi’s attempt which is more authentic towards being a drama which ironically runs on a handsomely budgeted thriller lane that ‘steals’ the movie’s prospects to be a crowd-pleaser.


The Story……of course

‘Badmaash Company’ is set in the 1990s in middle class Mumbai, of four ordinary youngsters (Shahid Kapoor, Anushka Sharma, Meiyang Chang and Vir Das), who came together to start an import business of things longed for by yuppie Indians. What made their venture such a stupendous success was the fact that they found a way to beat the system and soon became the undisputed kings in their business, realizing their one dream of making quick money is by doing all the wrong things the right way.

Living the life of champagne wishes and caviar dreams, the four friends discover that to make a business successful, you don't need big money. All you need is a big idea. All is well and hunky dory till one day the four maverick entrepreneurs are forced to shut shop.

What to look out for?

Having the identifiable emotions of today’s youth, ‘Badmaash Company’ is ruled by Shahid Kapoor as you can easily make out there’s a genuine love of performing behind it. Shahid makes a true honest attempt to lit up the film, fails but manages enact a character with a rich psychology. Proving that he can find the shadings in every hue.

Anushka looks pretty and her chemistry with Shahid is striking. Meiyang Chang has the zing while Vir Das is quite impressive. Anupam Kher and Kiran Juneja along with Pawan Malhotra are competent as ever.

Dialogues are entertaining, some truly spectacular shooting in Bangkok and USA where the scenes between the gang is likable.

Musically not a bad selection of tunes by Pritam Chakraborty. The movie has superb production values.

What not?

Despite all the fun, however, the thorny questions raised by the debutant con flick which borrows real life incidents like the ‘Madras Bleeding’ of the 60’s, the home loan scam in America which pulled its economy down and the import strategy of Indian importers etc to make a ‘con’ movie. The absence of innovations and creativity in the con which is the genders basic requirement is it major drawback. The writer doesn’t pen con on his own for the film and on top of that this gang is never in news or discussions in police headquarters that kills the excitement of the audience who starts believing that nobody is bothered whether this guys steal or they fight the ignorance of this basic factors in a con movie is troubling. The wealth, power, and privilege that allow Shahid to effortlessly trade it in for a new con down the line are given a free pass.

‘Badmaash Company’ idea might be of scamming, fast bucks, self inventory, friends, wealth and friendship which starts with a voice over that makes it feel like an autobiographical drama, all this mistakes and the little regard for suspense or audience sophistication needed in a con movie and the last 30 minutes……. repeat 30 minutes during the second half where unnecessary.
