Storyline

Set in the underbelly of Mumbai; in the notorious by-lanes where 'Greed is a Culture' and 'Deceit becomes a Compulsion' 'Bhindi Baazaar Incorporation' revolves around gangs of pickpockets who consider pick pocketing as an art. They use their intelligence as a canvas and their spontaneity as a brush to survive in this dangerous lively hood. 'Bhindi Baazaar Inc.' is the story of a pawn and his calculated moves to reach the end of the chessboard. Revolving around a crime syndicate who are in the business of pickpocket, the film starts with a game of chess between two characters 'Shroff' and 'Darzi'. Each move unfolds their story and eventually the motive of their meeting. The story unravels the quest of a small time pickpocket 'Fateh' next in line to be a MAMU (local area-head). The screenplay underlines the gritty politics, hierarchy, rules, commands, intelligence, wit and betrayal within the business.

User Reviews

Movie keeps you engaged through out !

This will be a good 2hrs trip of" driving a ferrari on a 14 lane expressway, sadly with a lot of speed brakers"!!! Either you take the foot off pedal at evry speed-braker , or just ignore them and enjoy the ride with little discomfort!!! This movie is based on the local goons (paaketmaar), gang wars of small scale , reflecting a good overall picturisation of the local area . Movie is written quite well few ignorable errors. The creamy mouthful bite of your burger will be the character's relevance with chess board and Dialougue delivery!!! The movie has got great actors who we love to watch , amidst piyush mishra and kk menon , prashant narayanan has done a marvelous job . It sure as hell doesnt fill the shoes of Satya and Once upon a time in mumbai but will give you a similar feel. I am still in awe with the chessboard relevance and the last scene where a cricket ball barge in from a window and messes the chessboard and its relevance with the scene !!! Mindblowing!!! May not fascinate evryone, but the ones who liked satya , pulp fiction will love it ! Worth a watch!!
