SO NON JEETU BHAIYA...

It has been tried before in the movie, A lot of times where the gray character of the beginnings has to do right and ideal things because he is forced to do so somehow. Take an example of Ghulam Amir Khan the thug slowly turning into the ideal person. However in "Dry day" the reminiscence of "GUIDE" can be seen where a crooked is forced to go on hunger strike and ultimately changes the course of the story.The place where the story faulters is the loose editing (lot of unwanted sequence with no consequential effect on the story still in the movie), music ( no mention-worthy songs) and the motive of the story which is attached to gannu's wife. Shreya Pilgaonkar's motive, her persuasion in the beginning seems forced and subsequently diluting the chemistry between.Story of an alcoholic leading the alcohol ban petition, interesting move but alas lacked the depth and study.

Not upto the mark

I watched the movie with lot of expectations as our jitu bhaiyya is the hero of this film. However, the movie turned out to be quite boring in the end. The topic was good but couldn't be justified. Overall the movie looked as if it was directed very casually. The movie looked confused! It didn't had any strong flavour of humour, emotion, action, drama or anything else. Maybe a mix of everything. Jitu bhaiyya was good but couldn't be utilised properly. Anu ji is a great actor and always impresses. Rest of the actors were substandard and unable to do justice with their roles. The director thought to carry the whole film on jitu bhaiyya and Anu Kapoor ji's shoulders but failed. I'll not call the movie disaster but a boring one. I had high hopes but shattered completely. It's a okayish movie and can be skipped if you have other priorities in life!That's all. Sayonara!

Why so many negative reviews for a film with social values?

I think audience is more inclined towards negative content as opposed to something that showcases social value. The film is about fight against alcohol and its impact on society especially rural areas . Since majority of the population have embraced alcohol I am not surprised about negative reviews. Any film that glorifies violence, misogyny and sexuality is watched by majority of the public. The audience are being programmed and are averse towards positivity. What is wrong with this film? It has good storyline, great performances, engaging screenplay yet people don't seem to like it. They like films where protagonist chops people off without the fear of law. I wonder where the society is heading. Such films must be encouraged.
