Usual Courtroom Drama minus thrill
Prof_McGonagall12 October 2020
If you love to watch courtroom drama then it may be good. But there have been so many movies with much better courtroom drama. The biggest drawback is that there is no thrill no suspense. If they wanted to put forth topic of male gang rape, then why you showed boys disguised as girls. If you want a bold topic then keep it bold, why choose middle way! Story doesn't falls in either category. Writer should be clear in mind.

Something new!!
navika-3045910 October 2020
At first I wasn't thinking of watching this movie due to all the new casting but having alot of free time in wfh I thought of giving it a try and seriously I am not disappointed. Its not just that the story is new but also the acting from all the debutant actors is terrific and specially both the lawyers. You wont waste your time watching this movie. Do give it a try.

niravm-5995411 October 2020
It reflects the psychological aspects that a victim,its family and near ones go through during criminal litigation , its a wonderful movie wherein minutest legal intricacies have been comprehensively portrayed on screen,hats off to the homework done by the team in doing such profound work off-screen and on-screen.

A must watch..
vaibhavpareek11 October 2020
The subject matter of the movie is brave, thought provocking, sensitive and an eye opener. I congratulate the makers to show such courage and the actors who are mostly debutants and brilliant, especially both the lawyers. The court room scenes are very intense and realistic. No unwanted and unreal drama has been added like other movies in filming court room scenes which makes the movie more realistic. The main hero of the movie is script which is very interesting and unique. A must watch..... Vaibhav Pareek Ex- Law Officer Geology and Mining Department, Govt of Gujarat. Presently practicing as an advocate in High Court of Gujarat

Nice Movie, worth your time and money
arvindgoja-113 October 2020
After a long time a nice Court room drama movie has appeared on the screen. Everyone has played very nice and important role, contributing in their own way. The court room scenes are Very Organic and Natural. The argument in the court are very genuine and realistic. I think this movie would be first of its own kind addressing the issue which has never been addressed in our society.

ankitasikarwar-1161515 October 2020
"Rape in any of its forms is horrific," this line from one of the pivotal scenes in the movie is what describes the drive of its story appropriately. It's difficult to imagine what a victim of rape goes through. What it means to be violated with force and malicious intent! What effect does it have on an individual's psyche? If gender of the victim plays a role in any capacity whatsoever! Does law provide an adequate cover for every victim? The film hovers around such issues and thus is an important and relevant story. Every victim relies on a collective understanding of a crime and criminal in order to get justice, but we as a group of civilised human beings have absolutely no idea how any trauma affects a particular person. All of this makes for a matter worth probing, and 376 D makes a courageous effort.

It's a story of 2 brothers, and a girl whose relationship to them is the bedrock of their existence in a make-or-break entanglement of a big city. A series of unusual incidents through a night shakes their lives irrevocably. There's an attempt to physically assault and gang rape. If you consider this a spoiler, the story really actually begins after this. It's not a suspense film, it's not an overtly dramatic film, it's a film about a traumatising incident, and the after effects that follow in the wake of loss, legality, and everyday life.

376 D takes its name from a specific section in law that deals with gang rape. After watching the movie, I can safely say that the movie is aptly titled, because the focus is really on the legal recourse. The characters do not reveal much about their individual lives or their pasts, other than around the incident. We are left with a fight that rests solely on a narrative that places all its bets on moving forward. The debutant directors, Gunveen Kaur and Robin Sikarwar, deserve praise for their commitment to a vision of raw, unembellished truth.

The performances in the film speak, but whether they echo or not is a subjective opinion. Vivek Kumar as Sanju calls upon emotions and anxiety with considerable satisfaction, Naman Anand as Devi is brief but vibrant enough, while Deeksha Joshi as Sandhya punches with what she's got. The two lawyers played by Sumit Singh Sikarwar (as Mr. Keshav Anand), and Priyanka Sharma (as Ms. Shalini) do quite a lot of heavy lifting in a true-to-life portrayal of courtroom proceedings. Their presence and arguments bring a refreshing change of pace from what we have known as court dramas.

It's impossible to talk about this film without its music & lyrics. The songs are impactful, heartwarming, and liven up the background of these characters who seem stuck in their web of 'reasonable doubts'. Kudos to the entire team!

It's not easy to survive in this growing world of consumerism and rabid development. It strips people of their identities. There are millions of Sanjus & Devis out there who live in a demanding city with an income that doesn't attract any sort of influence. They might be getting wronged in one way or another. And although it seems like a theoretical idea that reformative justice would take place & compensate for their losses, there may just be a sweet release of emancipation in justice that empowers and lets one move ahead with life. The film's climax imagines and captures this for a beautiful brief moment.

Amazing Movie with Unique Subject Matter.
legalsearch-5463512 October 2020
Being a law professional, after reading the title of movie, i watched it by assuming that it must be a film, based on some case; but after watching it, i found it a movie based on unique subject matter. Our legislature must consider to amend criminal law, by considering the concerns raised in the movie.

The movie is amazingly directed. All the characters of the movie have justified their respective roles; especially the roles played by Advocates, the Judge and the psychiatrist. The direction is quite impressive. No where movie is becoming boring. In fact its a well played court room drama and i must say both the advocates have played it so natural that it gives real life court room experience. Highly recommended "Must Watch" movie.

A different story.. a new perspective
shahshin19214 October 2020
At first I thought this would be like any other movie with same story but I was so wrong. Dont want to put spoilers so wont disclose things but this movie really made me think. There are so many things we are so ignorant about. And our minds have been so conditioned by false-propagandas that we simply fail to see & understand certain problems/struggles. Everything was pretty realistic and great, including the court-room scenes, unlike cheeky bollywood films where court-room scenes are so extravaganza with lawyers doing crazy things to make a point. I learnt something new. This movie is not only informative but I think it will overall make you a better - a less-judgmental person. I definitely recommend watching it!

Wow! What a film! Kudos to the makers, actors and the whole team for delivering such an amazing work of cinema. I'm a filmy buff but I never have seen such a strong, realistic court room drama till now. The concept, story line, performances show the depth of involvement of the whole team. It's a must watch.

Kudos to the makers for the fresh material!
ohmygoditspunit29 October 2020
This movie addresses a topic not explored earlier. It really picks up pace and engages the viewer from the time the legal proceedings / the court-room scenes begin.

This project has been helmed by debutante directors but the quality of certain aspects of the movie such as the lighting and camerawork were really polished and effective in major part of the film... it reflected the mood of the film very aptly, even enhanced it.

Many first timers mess up the background music or dont pay much attention to it. But in this movie, the bgm was very effective in many parts.

The dialogs in the courtroom scenes seemed less dramatic than the usual Hindi movie style which was a refreshing change. It made the scenes more real and effective. The movie is backed by some top writing and sharp research.

Hope these makers get to create more such riveting content!

Movie worth watching and applauding !!
panna-0561711 October 2020
Though rape on male victims has been prevalent since centuries and no law on their side, it has come into light just few years back and a huge taboo yet. The movie is based on the male victims' struggles and how the society sees them, no different than female victims, rather not being the victim at all as there has been no law on their side since centuries .. The actors have played their roles very well , amazing acting and also was quite impressed by the court scene which were quite realistic (being a lawyer myself) and very much on point in terms of law and their arguments and verdict. A movie worth watching and applauding 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Watch this masterpiece!
djcontractor17 October 2020
#376D A courtroom drama without the unnecessary drama!

This film is a must watch for anyone who has ever been in a court room and everyone who hasn't.

It is the most realistic depiction of the legal process in the country that we have come across. We appear in courts as well as hold quasi judicial powers in the line of our duty. And this film has touched us at our very core.

We are blown away by the amount of research that has gone into it. It is as accurate as it is engaging.

The performances are strong but nuanced and understated at the same time.

There are so many layers and messages that are conveyed with each well shot frame.

Do yourselves a favor and watch this masterpiece

Good Court Room Drama!
gkheskani16 October 2020
This is a movie which talks about actual scenario of the Indian Judiciary, how lawyers work and how things move in court

It is not a typical masala court room movie like Daamini or Jolly LLB where in the characters life outside court is covered more and court scenes are covered less

This is an outright court room movie The story builds a little slowly and it picks up pace when it reaches the court

The writing team have done a good amount of research how a case is argued in court, which is not usually heard of in Indian Cinema

It has been made on tight budget and it shows, had it been backed by a good production house it would have done wonders (considering the production team does not change the script :-))

Good performances by the cast considering as it is a first movie for some of them

All in all a good movie, definitely a watch

A Solid Subject. Amazing performances
keyurchitre16 October 2020
A movie that breaks barriers and gives an insight into the functionality of the judiciary system in India. The initial storyline starts well and later catches pace as the courtroom scenes begin.

Amazing work by the creative writer and director of the movie. Most importantly, kudos to every individual both at the back-end and front runners who added relentless dedication to make this movie a brilliant watch.

In a nutshell, the movie is definitely a good watch!

A realistic movie
mayurtanay10 October 2020
I have worked as an investigator in premier institutions like DRI, CBI and ED and have fair experience of investigation, evidence and law and I find that most of the Indian movies are far far away from reality when it comes to investigation and court room.

I am pleasantly surprised to find that this new movie 376 D is refreshingly realistic and gripping.

I must complement the entire team for coming up with such a gripping, intense and technically correct movie.

The story is unique, screen play is gripping and acting of the lead characters is natural and flawless.

I also loved the music and songs.

Overall a wonderful and gripping movie.
