Yeh Ballet Movie Review:
It’s hard to do justice to real-life stories. The dialogue can put a damper on the essence of held conversations, the weight of the characters’ psyche and emotions gets pruned to quick cuts, and the timeline of their journeys can come across as a test the makers had to cover all their bases on. Director-writer Sooni Taraporevala’s (Little Zizou) loose adaptation of her 2017 namesake documentary Yeh Ballet (on the lives of two Mumbai boys, Amiruddin Shah and Manish Chauhan, who received full scholarships to the Oregon Ballet Theatre School) manages to tick all those boxes and more, while still emerging as a two-hour feature film that’s worth sitting through, if only to read between the lines
In the Netflix original film, amidst the hustle and bustle of the city known for fostering dreamers are two unlikely boys who find a match with a dance form so alien, one’s first meeting with ballet gives rise to a flippant irreverence while the other’s culminates in instantaneous devotion. Asif (Achintya Bose) is a breakdancer who can’t be bothered with taking a “bakwaas (rubbish)” formal class while Nishit aka Nishu (Chauhan plays a fictionalized version of himself) is a contemporary dancer who misses the cut for the limelight. Both their paths intertwine as renowned Israeli-American ballet teacher Saul Aaron (Julian Sands who plays Shah and Chauhan’s real-life instructor Yehuda Maor) relocates from the States to India and starts teaching at the local Mumbai Dance Academy.
This film review are Mostly Positive from Critics, IMDB Public Reviewing site give 7.6 Star Out Of 10 Star with Reviewers are 714.
Critics Rating by Saibal Chatterjee , from NDTV give 3.5 star out of 5 Star.
