Sujoy Ghosh’s ‘Jhankaar Beats’ is a charming exploration of life, love, and music, capturing the essence of everyday moments. The film features Rishi and Deep, two friends aspiring to win a music competition. The movie’s humour and realistic portrayal of relationships set it apart from typical Bollywood productions. From the humorous scenes to the emotional depth, the movie is layered with nuances of suburban existence. The film’s structure and soundtrack is a tribute to R.D. Burman’s classics. The performances by the cast, particularly Sanjay Suri, add to the film’s appeal. The producer Pritish Nandy considers ‘Jhankaar Beats’ a film which brought a fresh perspective to Indian cinema, attracting audiences tired of conventional Bollywood content. It showcased the evolution of Indian cinema with the multiplex culture and became a cultural phenomenon and the film’s influence can still be felt in projects like ‘Four More Shots Please’.
