Shikari

About This Movie

Shikari is an interesting blend of action and drama, set against the backdrop of the circus world. The film follows Shankar and Chanchal, who hustle through life with their road shows. When Shankar lays eyes on Natasha's circus poster, it sparks a yearning for something bigger—an opportunity that eventually takes him to Russia. The pacing feels a bit uneven at times, transitioning between high-energy performances and quieter, more introspective moments. The practical effects used in the circus scenes really stand out, giving it an authentic feel. Performances are heartfelt, especially from the leads, who bring a certain depth to their struggles. It’s a curious watch for those who appreciate films that tackle ambition and dreams in unexpected ways.
