All hail !!!! the Moor of Venice


The Moor of venice .... Othello , brilliant movie ... Ajay Devgan as Othello is the silent presence in the movie and Saif Ali Khan ( Langda Thyagi ) as Iago is too brilliant for words... he carries the role so well that at sometimes you feel like throttling him but then thats what he is supposed to do. Kudos to Saif .. Vivek Oberoi has a passing presence in the film and Konkona Sen Sharma as Langda...'s wife portrays the village belle wedded to an outlaw perfectly. Bipasha is a passing presence and Kareena Kapoor has played desdemona well....

Naseeruddin Shah is the typical politician running things from Jail and one who works his caste votes and can get elected anytime...
My only lament was that some of the movie was in Bhojpuri and took some time for the average Tamil Brahmin to understand , but then there was Virdee and some repetitions of dialogues required....
The climax is heart rending and the movie is brilliant and the songs are just too good... a must watch for any shakespearean and movie critic... Langda... is what acting should be ...
