The genius of AK vs AK is that it can have a lot of fun while allowing the film industry to take on tasks.

Vikramaditya Motwane's AK vs AK was released two weeks later in David Fincher's "Mank", and the timing couldn't be better. At Mank, we saw the downfall of an alcoholic writer, Hermann Mankiewicz. Perhaps, this was the only time he refused to give in to power and claimed to possess what was most important to him. This film is based on the script of Jack Finch, partly inspired by Pauline Kyle's essays, and offers a pertinent point of view to the author of one of the greatest movies of all time, "Citizen Kane". But in India, is this problem established? Does our movie really have an author? If so, who is bigger? It is the filmmakers — and their unique vision of building the world from scratch — or the stars — that attract the audience and ensure that their producers will not go bankrupt...well, in most cases.

AK vs AK initially had similar thinking about who owns an acting career. Or more precisely, who controls the media. This kind of meditation occurs in public activities, which is not a kind of irony. Because, let us admit: everything today is related to movies, not necessarily to movies. The most attractive aspect of "AK vs AK" (written by Avinash Sampass) is the camera-the camera can sometimes peep, but it can also attract outsiders' attention, depending on how you want to see it -And the lens that blurs the boundary between reality and fiction when you watch a movie. The photographer in AK vs AK is Yogita (herself), a documentary producer who is making a documentary about India’s top directors. Guess who is at the top...Anurag Kashyap (she gives the impression of being more arrogant and old-fashioned , Makes you wonder if Kashyap is playing the Motwan version of Kashyap).

Kashyap plays a narcissistic, self-focused version of Anurag Kashyap, Anurag Kashyap as "Tarantino of India" and "Vasipur" The artist's arrogance surprised the artist, and Anil Kapoor (obviously an unimportant star) asked him for a movie offer. When Anurag thinks Kapoor is "ancient, grandfather-like material", their self-esteem will be hurt, and Kapoor said, "If you remove those swear words, Wasseypur will reduce the duration by half." The assessment of this is partly correct.

Their quarrel triggered a series of events: Kapoor accidentally splashed water on Kashyap's shoes, and the latter splashed water on Kapoor's face. At first you were fascinated by the surprises in certain scenes, such as the aftermath of the Kapur Kashyap conflict and the headlines in the newsroom, which led to Kashyap’s close friends Tapsi Pannu and Navazuddin Si Dickie ("I made your career Nawaz Bay," Kashyap shouted on the phone) stayed away from him and painted an ugly but almost perfect picture of the film industry and journalism. But when the "serious" part begins, all of this will be obliterated... When Anurag Kashyap (or should we say Motwan?) he took revenge on Kapoor kandhan (in another context In, there is a slide that says: "No outsiders", I laughed), in turn, retaliated against Bollywood. Sounds like a nightmare for gossip columnists?

 

The opening remarks about an arrogant director and a superstar who was eliminated. AK vs. AK may be Bollywood’s Ayyappanum Koshiyum. But this movie did not cross the road of Ayapanam Kosiyoum. It wants to do what Manesh Sharma did in Fan. It wants to be a meta-film. This is a good attempt for it to settle down. Fan Bingbing is a meta-comment, but Motewan's movie is too self-conscious to be true.

"Justice and Challenge" is a "serious" movie and a black comedy. The moments in the film that are considered serious—there are real actors—are the weakest. But the comedy part of it was, to a large extent, a riot-once, at the worst moment of the movie, Kashyap called a police officer and asked him if it was Kashyap who made 10 For the billion dollar movie, he said, "Wow Meraba Hai."

Imagine this: a real-life actor must piece the puzzle together to find his missing daughter in real life. I know the movies you are thinking of and countless other movies. However, in Kapoor's 14-hour journey, the ideal is to cut a scene in "Wulin Wai Zhuan".

This film is really fashionable in the film and the film inside the camera does not cut, often using long shots; a continuous shot, a long chase sequence is an exquisite photo, reminding you of the one in Baves Josh. The camera brings a kind of closeness, a kind of "vividness" to the scene. There is also a sense of self, why you can't be a hero in your story, especially if you are a reel hero and viewed as a commodity-Kapoor found himself dancing'My name is Lacan' in a crowd of people.

For Anil Kapoor, this is a sport. When he looked at the crowd cheering for him and said: "Do they still love me?"? "It's not easy for an actor, and even more so for a superstar. It comes from a great place of confidence. Kashyap, not so much, because he must have been used to those wild vegetables (" You used second-hand shoes bought by Karan Johar. Your movie hit the box office.") And Bombay Velvet.

Movies are when people are willing to let go of their doubts when the lights are off. But what makes our movie our movie is unwilling to stop doubting. That’s why when Shah Rukh Khan played Aryan Khan and his avid fan Gaurav Chandna, it was arguably his best performance in the past ten years. Somewhere, we Shah Rukh Khan, who knew to be real, was hiding in Aryan Khan. We know that SRK stands with his chest naked, exposing the insecurities and weaknesses between him and the superstar. He was communicating with his fans but not really communicating. It feels very private.

In a publicity interview, Vikramaditya Mottwan wondered aloud whether Fan Bingbing would make more sense if SRK played himself. no, I can not. This is the difference between AK and AK, this is the biggest obstacle. The irony is that in a movie that involves real names, real people, real places, and real memories, you will want to pause your doubts and watch it through the objective lens.

This is why when Kapoor received a call from Anand Ahuja (sonam’s husband), or in fact, the Justice and Development Party took place on Anil Kapoor’s birthday (and was released on his birthday), Or, in fact, it involves Hashwald Hankapoor’s accusation that Motvan "smashed up" his career-by the way, it was a scream-you get a feeling of plasticity that this is a fictional world. This is why you realize that Anurag Kashyap and Anil Kapoor are not real, nor their true selves. They are playing the role of Motwan to show the authenticity of the movie.
