We need to encourage these movies because they have some messages that we overlook or we don't care about. The audience and their taste is now changing and hopefully people will accept these kind of contents with more welcoming manner. I would like to encourage the director, producer and the actors and everyone associated with this project to continue to work on projects like these. I can understand that the money is less however the content is pure and authentic. Giving 9 starts and keeping one star so you guys have room to do even better and grow. There are a lot more contents and issues that people needs to be aware of. Cheers!

A very good attempt was seen here by the whole team
The content is new to Bollywood of animal used for illegal activities and how a guy tries to save these animals..the makers have shown good detailing of animals and their breeds..performances of both Anshuman and Riddhi very good along with Paresh
The best part of the movie is the action which is one of a kind Anshuman riddhi and Paresh gave good action scenes
As it was as a action packed movie the pace should be very fast and some long action scenes were required..the love story was dumb
The movie is perfect for OTT watch.

Do not let Anshuman Jha's innocent demeanor deceive you. He is a normal delivery boy during the day, but at night, he transforms into an animal vigilante. If he finds someone tormenting animals, especially dogs, he becomes extremely violent and incapacitates the abuser. He also befriends a hyena which saves his life in the climax. Ridhi Dogra is a sincere cop who is on his trail. Paresh Pahuja is a sophisticated businessman who is involved in the illegal animal trade. #Lakadbaggha is a must watch for those who keep yelling ''bollywood does not experiment with subjects''. Performances are outstanding. The action sequences are well choreographed. Rating 3.5/5.
"Lakadbhagga" presents an interesting concept centering around a vigilante with a mission to protect street dogs. It's a distinctive storyline that sets the film apart. Yet, the execution and the cast's performance are a mixed bag, diminishing the overall impact of the film.
Anshuman Jha, who is given the responsibility to lead the film, disappointingly delivers a less than satisfactory performance. As the vigilante, the character demanded a stronger, more convincing portrayal, which unfortunately Jha falls short of delivering.
On the flip side, Riddhi Dogra is the film's saving grace. Continuing her outstanding performances from her TV Series "Asur", she brings an exceptional depth to her role in "Lakadbhagga". Dogra demonstrates her versatility and ability to excel in a variety of roles, making a strong case for her to be featured in more mainstream Bollywood films.
The direction of the film leaves much to be desired. It fails to do justice to the unique premise and doesn't manage to evoke the intended emotional resonance. The setup in Calcutta, while rich in cultural heritage, seems misplaced for the context of the film. It doesn't add much value to the storyline and instead ends up feeling forced and inauthentic.
Overall, "Lakadbhagga" is a film with a promising premise, bolstered by a remarkable performance from Riddhi Dogra. However, it stumbles due to a weak lead performance by Anshuman Jha, lackluster direction, and a mismatched setting. It's a commendable effort that falls just short of delivering a fulfilling cinematic experience. If you are a fan of Riddhi Dogra, "Lakadbhagga" is worth a watch for her performance alone.

NEVER JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER!
This quote fits for the lead character ARJUN. This dude showed some realy nice action scenes. His physique, costumes and hairstyle is close to Bruce Lee. Female lead is not promising. She should have been a journalist instead of a police officer in this movie.
Weak screenplay and unnecessarily long conversations ruins the flow of the flick. Film creates a feeling that its based on animal trafficking and the hero is going bust a big racket but eventually nothing big happens. It only focuses on the Hyena. More screen time should hv given to show how the bond between the hero and the hyena develops.
But definitely worth a watch. If any wise Bollywood directors notice this new guy ANSHUMAN JHA then Bollywood definitely gets a new era Action Hero. Kudos to the ANSHUMAN JHA!
Long Live INDIA..! Long Live SERBIA..!!
