Heeramandi reviews - Page 10

Overall it was OKAY. SLB for me hasn’t hit the mark since Black, but this one is surely his worst. The story and substance is wafer thin.

One of the biggest issues I had was with the dancing. It was so bad. None of the actresses capture the essence and beauty of the mujra. Sanjeeda Sheikh is an amazing dancer and I feel she was purposely given bad choreography so that she doesn’t outdo Sharmin. You can almost visibly see her holding back

Why was Madhuri not cast in this ? She would’ve been perfect for this.

I’m not too fond of the cast. I didn’t feel that anyone did a great acting job tbh. I liked Sanjeeda the most and Richa as well. The rest were okay. Casting both Suman’s brought down the value of the project, both are z-grade actors who IMO took away from the movie. Manisha was good but not consistently. Sonakshi was good too but she had the same expression on her face. The project needed a better and stronger cast.

Sharmin - Expressionless, Lifeless, Dull, Unrefined, Painful to look at and Traumatizing to watch. Just No. Go away, never come back and don’t bother. You can’t and you shouldn’t. Disappear please.

SLB's mother Leela Bhansali was from a low caste family and has an ancestral link with Tawaifs or courtesans.

He gave a tribute to his mother Leela Bhansali in Devdas where Kiran Kher played his mother's role. In that film Kiran Kher's character Sumitra was from a nauch family.

That is why Bhansali is obsessed with courtesan culture. His mother belongs to courtesan family.

You can't imagine how difficult it was for me to find this comment 😭 finnally someone said this
