Othello...Omkara....Vishal Bharadwaj......Langda Tyagi.......the cream cast from Bollywood! What else could we expect from this excellent film-maker - Vishal from Meerut, India. This movie is a treat to watch.Omkara is Vishal Bhardwaj's interpretation of William Shakespeare’s classic, Othello – a play that has been made four times in Hollywood but is being brought to life for the first time in a mainstream Hindi film in a commercial format. Credit is due to maker Vishal Bhardwaj for suddenly reviving Shakespearean literature. While he sprang a surprise at us with his adaptation of Macbeth as Maqbool, the successor Omkara Othello remained in the public eye thanks to it's star-studded casting. But this time, Vishal Bhardwaj tries too hard and the effort shows. He is straining to be realistic and it is evident in the sepia texture, profane language and disconnected montages.
Saif is a treat to watch as 'Langda Tyagi' - a sure-shot contender for Oscar!!!
