Movie Review by Greg Goodsell
Directed by Q
A ne’er-do-well with a shaved head in Modern India with the nickname of Gandu (which translates to the equivalent term of “Asshole” in Bengali) has a series of misadventures with his Bruce Lee-obsessed rickshaw driving buddy (Joyraj Bhattacharya). Unemployed, Gandu’s main source of income is picking the pocket of his mother’s boyfriend as they noisily make love. Squandering what he does have on a daily lottery, Gandu dreams of making it as a rapper. After a lifetime of grinding poverty and thwarted ambitions, Gandu’s fortunes suddenly take a turn for the better – will he have success in the music biz and finally lose his virginity to the hooker of his dreams?
