Gangs of wasseypur music director movie#
Now that the soundtrack is out, the official tracklist consists of “only” 14 songs? Saving 11 for the next movie eh, Mr.
In a way it is understandable since the movie is to be released in 2 parts. Kashyap decided to drop a bomb on his audience that the soundtrack of Gangs Of Wasseypur will comprise of a WHOPPING 25 tracks! Staying true to its real life influences, the film explores this revenge saga through the socio-political dynamic in erstwhile Bihar (North India), in the coal and scrap trade mafia of Wasseypur, through the imprudence of a place obsessed with mainstream ‘Bollywood’ cinemaĪnd then Mr. At the turn of the decade, Shahid’s son, the philandering Sardar Khan vows to get his father’s honor back, becoming the most feared man of Wasseypur. Now outcast, Shahid becomes a worker at Ramadhir Singh’s colliery, only to spur a revenge battle that passes on to generations. Towards the end of colonial India, Sahid Khan loots the British trains, impersonating the legendary Sultana Daku. To understand my view, check out the official movie synopsis: SYNOPSIS To be brutally honest, initially, I had next-to-no expectations from the soundtrack of this movie since I kept wondering how the inclusion of songs will be beneficial to a socio-political thriller of this sort. To sum it up, Anurag Kashyap promises sensible entertainment. His films beautifully exploit the genre of experimental cinema and despite of catering to a niche audience, they have found commercial success too. This man has dared to deliver a multitude of extremely arty films with underlying dark themes – and they have worked – be it the morose Black Friday or the psychedelic Dev D to his most recent release, That Girl In Yellow Boots. Irrespective, Gangs of Wasseypur has found a high place in my list of 2012’s highly awaited movies and the sole reason behind this is Anurag Kashyap.
Irony? Lack of geographic sense? Say what you please. It turns out that Wasseypur is actually located in Dhanbad district of Jharkhand, India – which happens to be my maternal hometown. We bring to you the exclusive music review of Gangs Of Wasseypur.Įver since I first heard about this movie, I believed that Wasseypur was a fictitious city spawn from director Anurag Kashyap’s eccentric mind going into overdrive.
