The Desi Binger

Sadak 2 is the kind of film that film critics have to see, so that you don't have to... Hi guys, Just finished watching Sadak 2 on Hotstar and here is my quick review of the film. Honestly I thought that the hate that the films trailer got when it released because of the whole nepotism and sushant singh rajput conspiracy angle was unfair. yes, the trailer was bad, but its just a trailer.

One thing you should know about me, well, not "should" but if you have decided to read this review, then you might as well know about me is that, I love well made gangster flicks. if i have to borrow a line from one of my favorite movie of all time and modify it for this context it would sound like this  "Ever since i remember, i have always wanted to make a Gangster film"  A Gangster Cop drama is a close second, maybe 3rd ... anyway, doesn't matter. The point is that when i heard that "Class of 83 - The Punishers of Mumbai Police" is going to be made into a movie called " The Class of 83" . I was excited, so much so that even the news of "Bobby Deol" playing the lead role in it didn't quash my spirit.  As some of you already know The "Class of 83 - Punishers of Mumbai Police is one of the many brilliant novels  by celebrated author Hussian Zaidi.  Nobody writes Indian crime like he does, Zaidi during his earlier years was
