Bandook (transl. Gun) is a 2013 Indian Hindi-language crime film starring Aditya Om, Manisha Kelkar and Arshad Khan. The film was directed and produced by Aditya Om.[1]

Synopsis

The film depicts the rise of Bhola Kevat, a lower caste boatman "Mallaah" (Kewat) in the interiors of Uttar Pradesh, rising to the unexpected heights of political power. Bandook connects crime and politics, a psychological peek inside the minds of people who use the power of the gun as a ladder to worldly success. It shows the vast distance covered by the human mind from picking a gun to pulling the trigger.

Development

Producer, director Aditya Om revealed he has been working on the script from two years as film is based on political Dons.[2]

Release

Justin Rao from The Hitavada gave it one star, and said, "It tries to be everything in the end and loses its own track on which it established itself.
