Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaAt the time of filming Rituparna Sen, who in the movie performs an unsimulated fellatio to Anubrata Basu, was in a long term love relationship with movie director Qaushiq Mukherjee. Asked if the actress was comfortable with that, Rii says, "I didn't have any problems at all. I have been a professional actress for 10 years now. It doesn't bother me if the camera is off or on." But still, any explicit shot requires preparation. Speaking of the workshops they did to prepare themselves for the sex scenes in Gandu, Rii says: "They were physical workshops that helped us shed our inhibitions and become real. If someone were to touch my boobs, it's natural that I'd be aroused. But it is the aftermath that is important. How do you feel after such a shoot? I wasn't shattered or anything after I shot Gandu. I was shooting lovemaking scenes with my co-actor that were being shot by my boyfriend. Now, how weird is that?"

Featured review
An Ode to Andy Warhol !!!!
I am not quite aware whether the director was inspired by Andy Warhol's "Chelsea Girls" or not but the film certainly highlights that exact frame mannerism of presenting the story for cinematic viewing like the one presented by Warhol in "Chelsea Girls".
The film consists of some erotic scenes which are explicit in nature but most certainly not pornographic in any way whatsoever.
The script was innovative for Indian audience though I am pretty sure that majority viewers have not got the basic notion of the script. The cinematography was brilliant must congratulate Kaushik aka Q for that. Lyrics were certainly explosive in nature but truth cannot be denied from it.
Acting is good especially by Anubrata(Gandu) and Joyraj(Rickshaw), Rii is hot but she did not got enough leverage to showcase her acting abilities. Komolika(Mother) was good in her role and Shilajit(Das babu)....well he was just the jolly good fellow.
I have only one complain that the sound was not recorded properly and at times background score became too noisy to hear the dialouges with proper effect.
Must say a good step forward for Indian cinema and kudos to Overdose Joint for thinking out of the box.
