I Want To Talk Movie Review | Anupama Chopra | THR India
Anupama Chopra reviews "I Want to Talk," the latest drama from director Shoojit Sircar starring Abhishek Bachchan as Arjun Sen, an IIT graduate turned marketing guru whose life is upended by a laryngeal cancer diagnosis. This intimate narrative explores themes of resilience, family dynamics, and finding grace in life's ordinary moments.
The film follows Arjun (Abhishek Bachchan), a cynical marketing professional in America, as he navigates multiple surgeries, unimaginable pain, and a transformed life, while maintaining a complex relationship with his daughter Ria (Ahilya Bamroo). Anupama Chopra examines how Sircar and writer Ritesh Shah avoid easy sentimentality in telling this true story based on the real Arjun Sen's memoir "Raising a Father," while analyzing Abhishek Bachchan's bracingly vanity-free performance.
With deliberate pacing and understated drama that has become Shoojit Sircar's trademark since "Yahaan," "I Want to Talk" marks another thoughtful addition to the director's unique filmography. Anupama Chopra discusses how the film, while occasionally meandering, finds poignance in the ordinary and represents Sircar's continued exploration of the middle ground between arthouse and mainstream cinema.

    The director said he cast him because he saw his mother's innocence in his eyes. What a joke 🤮 So I bet his mother paid for his film and the film will at best collect about 1 tenth of Aishwarya Rai's pay per film.

Anupama is such an empathetic yet bold (rare) facilitator. such a dedicated workaholic and amazingly talented Aamir! It is a treat to observe his objective outlook at the evening of his work towards his life career family friends with such a clear mind. and we wish him to be the way Clint Eastwood is.

    I do think rising ticket prices are a huge issue. I am not knowledgeable enough to know how single screens are across the country, but I'm afraid that distributors and theatre owners might increase ticket prices for limited showings of indie films just to milk the situation, especially coz they might assume only rich urban people will watch them. That would just make these movies inaccessible to the masses. I genuinely believe in a movie-obsessed country like ours, there needs to be a cap on ticket prices. I'm sure that will make theatres fill up again. That might also require big commercial "mass" movies to lower their insane budgets again tbh

    Arre bhai, Sidharth Sengupta ka jugaad toh dekho! Undekhi Season 3 ka plot, wahi location, aur wahi actors, bas ek naye wrapping paper mein band ke do alag-alag streaming platforms ko bech diya! Ekdum desi jugaad ka example. Story aur cast ko zyada tension mat do, bas background score aur title thoda badal diya, aur lo! Nayi series taiyyar. Bhai sahab, yeh toh "ek teer se do OTT ko ghoom phir ke wahi kahani suna do" waali baat ho gayi. Mazaa aaya, Sidharth ji! Desh ke asli startup aap hi ho!
