The Black Cat takes No. 3 spot on Film Companion's Top 10 Indian Short Films of 2017 ranking: www.filmcompanion.in/article/top-10-indian-short-films-of-2017-ranked
It brought back my childhood memories. I would read Ruskin Bond's stories all day long sitting in my room on rainy day with cup of hot coffee and I get lost into his stories. Thank you for bringing my childhood memories back. ❤️
Came here after reading a newspaper. Since this was released on children's day, I must say it is a delight to see Mr. Tom Alter as Ruskin Bond in this short story.
I recommend this film as the best Halloween film for all time...I waited to watch this film forever... Ruskin Bond has always been and will be forever favourite for all the lovers of witchcrafting and wizarding stories. This film gave me the best of Halloween Vibes 🌑🌫️🌫️🎃🎃👻👻
A story which bewitches you from start till end without losing its essence when converted to frames. It was a delight to see Tom. Set design and camera work was quite excellent.
Wow great movie. Wonderful direction, soothing music . a very light hearted movie. I don't know why but this movie gave me a positive vibe... Tom alter is good, uday ji (I like the most in this short movie) and shrenaz ji is also very good as witch. And of course the black cat. everything is looking very magical in this short film.
I am a Great Potterhead, also a Ruskin Bond fan, so this is so perfect for me. Love It :-) This is also in my class VI text book. There the price of broomstick was Rs. 3 and Mr. Bond bought it for Rs. 2
Really liked this. Never heard of Ruskin Bond. Will look him up now. The settings were brilliant. I love his house and garden and the witch's house as well. Real fairy tale scenes. Thanks for sharing.
Loved it!! Shernaz Patel, Tom Alter and a beautiful 🐈, very nice visuals, music is great, wats not to love. Can't really ask for more from a short film.
Whole folm was very good but last static shot witch in her room ruined the mood. There shld hv been hand held shots fr that scene. That shild hv also shown effrt done by art director fr that scene. Rest is all good.
Lovely work, Bhargav. Have been a fan of Mr Bond's writing for a long time, and was happy to see the simple yet beautiful adaptation. Keeps you hooked. And the best part, the movie maintains that simplicity, that feeling Bond's stories have. Hope you work on more such stories. All the Best. :)

does justice to Mr Bond's writing. Waiting for more of his short stories to be made into short films.
I haven't seen anything like this in Indian cinema yet!!! It's so unique and well made. Best Indian short film of 2017.

Tom Sir was a brilliant actor and a great person.
Thanks
Love for Ruskin Bond ❤You are always my favorite author.
I love everything about this movie. Wish there was a full-length movie of the same cinematography, aesthetic and direction
Soo good...really the cat knew to irritate....enjoyed n was expecting a longer version
But when I read it in the book, the broomstick was of 10 rupees and Mr.Bond bought it in 5 rupees
Direction, Set design, Editing, Cinematography, Vfx, Acting... everything's just perfect .. Fantastic work..
This was something else. A work of art. So beautiful!
Very well done...very well done. my son is going to film school...(Full Sail ) loved your story line. great job.

Great work, Bhargav! The atmosphere of benign Bondish terror perfectly created. :-)

Great work Bhargav Da
This was quite a fascinating story; It was simply adorable with a twist of humor (short, sweet & to the point)

Amazing VFX and superb direction !!!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Terrific set design. good acting.

Hello I’m here from msd & this was the BEST creation ever lots of love from ananya trehan(class v-e)
Not as good as the short story but it is fine. Nobody can take place of Ruskin Bond ever. Even the best actor in the world cannot enact his role.
delightful feel of the golden era of earth
Lovely work, Bhargav. Have been a fan of Mr Bond's writing for a long time, and was happy to see the simple yet beautiful adaptation. Keeps you hooked. And the best part, the movie maintains that simplicity, that feeling Bond's stories have. Hope you work on more such stories. All the Best. :)
The masterpiece.. Loved it.. great job guys !!
