Movie review: Flat No. 3's "Belagaam Talent".
If I have to sum up my whole experience with Flat No. 3's "Belagaam Talent" in two words, I would say master piece. I am a big fan of Carcons International' s plays and movies and when I heard about this release, I called my home and booked a recliner sofa seat without wasting a moment. And then came the moment, movie started in grand fashion. And by the time it ended, I was lost deep into carconacy (a unique emotion which is mixture of ecstasy and lunacy).
Flat No. 3's "Belagaam Talent" starts with highly sensitive and controversial scene of Lav Grover singing a song (Himesh Reshamia's song more to add on that). We all have witnessed this marvelous scene several times in our lifetime and this one comes with no less intensity. As story unfolds, madness increases with each and every scene. This is definitely one of the best carconic story ever told on screen so far.
One aspect of Flat No. 3's "Belagaam Talent" which stands out is its direction. New director George has already achieved new heights with his maiden movie. Camera work is so precise and steady that I didn't even notice it is actually moving. Each minute detail was given upmost importance may be it Lav calling for Shalini for female part or changing appearances of characters on screen.
Crack-acting by the crack-actors in this movie is what we expect from such talented and experienced crack-actors. Lav Grover is at his wild best. He not only shows his dancing talent but also exhibit great physic, exceptional carconic timing and excellent chemistry with other crack-actors. A sheer delight to watch. Nitin brings so much charm and intellect to this carconic drama just with his sheer presence. Definitely we cannot see age taking over him in his performance. The way is perform each scene with so much perfection has always made me wonder. The scene (at 2:33 seconds) where he come banging onto screen and perform Aaaaaaaaaaaaaa Aaaaaaaaaaaa and where (one at 2:38 seconds) where he closes his eyes to concentrate on his singing and where (one at 2:53 seconds) he drops microphone where just out of this world.
Shalini comes as surprise package. Crack-acting in her first movies along with such legendary crack-actors takes courage by itself and performing at that level is something different altogether. She did not only match other crack-actors scene by scene but also surpassed them in some of the scenes. She looks well trained in carconic dancing and jumping too. Manish was good with caps and has potential.
Overall great movie, exceptional direction and crack-acting we will remember for long time. Must go!!!

Dear Arpit,
Bhai kudos to you for writing such a wonderful review of the blockbuster movie Belagaam Talent.
Forget about the extraordinary feat that the movie has achieved. The best part attached to the movie is the Review of the movie done by none other than the greatest of all times, the cynical and the critical most and one of its kind his highness Arpit THE Gattani,
The flowering language and the precision with which he has written a wonderful piece, in which he has given an insight into the minutest of the details, so metaculously done, that even an expert from hollywood would feel shy to go for a comaprison with him in writing reviews of the movies from the world over.
It has indeed been a matter of great privilege and honour to accept and receive such a fantabulous response directly coming from the horse's mouth.
The huge success of the biggest hit ever Belagaam Talent, is due to the love and support of the carcons group and the madness, lunacy, distructive creativity, and lot more which this group stand for.
I on behalf of the unit of Belagaam Talent dedicate the success of this movie to all the dedicated and ever encouraging members of carcons. Love u all.
Love
Lav Grover
