Anurag Kashyap: Bulbbul had me enthralled and engrossed

Anurag Kashyap added that soon after he finished the film, he rewatched it. And this time, he could see director Anvita Dutt’s “stubbornness”, “agony” and “ecstasy.” He also applauded the work done by editor Rameshwar S Bhagat and wrote, “this is where I’d say editing Bulbul was rewriting Bulbul”.

In separate tweets, Anurag praised the performances of Avinash Tiwary and Tripti Dimri, who made their debut in 2019’s Laila Majnu. He tweeted, “The music @ItsAmitTrivedi, the performances, the breathtaking and courageous cinematography #SiddharthDiwan, which easily could have become gimmicky, and those actors .. such courageous choices from @RahulBose1 @paoli_d and @paramspeaks and seeing it through, not flinching at all.”

“Experience Bulbul… it’s not a scary horror, it’s a cautionary tale, it’s a fable of times, it’s Bengali Gothic(if there ever is such a thing),” he mentioned. For Anurag, the film “joins the list of best first films” that he has seen which includes “Court, Fandry, Subramaniapuram, Udaan, Masaan, Makdee, Tumbaad, Luck By Chance, SOT, Liar’s Dice, Annayum Rassolum, Killa.”

In the end, Anurag congratulated the producers of the film Karnesh Sharma and Anushka Sharma. Earlier, Anurag had praised the duo’s production Paatal Lok that premiered on Amazon Prime Video.
