The upcoming Gujarati movie ’53mu Panu’ depicts a completely new take on the existing urban society and gives the audience a lot to think about. Set to be released on July 29, the movie stars Kinjal Priya as Ritu, Aarjav Trivedi as Kabir, as well as Chetan Daiya, Mehul Buch, and Jay Bhatt. The trailer of the movie was launched on July 1 and has generated curiosity among film aficionados. VOI correspondent caught up with the star cast at an event held at Ahmedabad’s AMA Institute today.
Ritu is an enthusiastic and dedicated journalist and believes that her profession is a tool to change the world and make it a better place. She understands her responsibilities and does her best when it comes to speaking out against wrongdoings, corruption, loot, and scams. On the other hand, Kabir is one of the most renowned lawyers in the city, who believes that he must use his skill, capability, and contacts to boost his practice without becoming a judge of other people’s character and deeds. The two are in a relationship and go through the ups and downs of daily life and conflicting stands because of their contradictory professions and beliefs.
The entire plot, a mix of suspense and emotions, compares the two characters’ lives to reality, which is not as straightforward as it seems. The audience is forced to think about all the experiences and the immoral activities that do not get enough attention. For instance, the frequently occurring road accidents, corruption, scams, and many other incidents. The people feel upset and wronged but with time forget about them. The story revolves around the characters’ reactions to witnessing such incidents.
Director Kartavya Shah manages to delve deep into the two professions and gives the audience a look into the people at work.
The film’s title ’53mu panu’ is based on its story and the plot. In a game of cards, the winner is decided only when the final card has been revealed. In the same way, ’53mu panu’ will keep the audience engrossed till the final moments when the suspense is revealed.
