Jhund actually talks about those walls standing in the society, which many poor-uneducated people, despite being talented, cannot jump over. In this way the herd gives a big message. In the last minutes of the film, Amitabh Bachchan’s long monologue in court beautifully narrates the reality of inequality in society. There is no doubt that the film, made with full responsibility, has a high aim and it stands on the ground of the present and soars in the skies of the future.

This is Nagraj Manjule’s first Hindi film, but his two films in Marathi, Fendri and Sairat, have been so popular and popular that many non-Marathi speaking people also saw him. In this way Nagraj is not unknown in Hindi, but as far as Jhund is concerned, it does not touch the same heights as his previous films. It does not shake the viewer like those films. Although the scope of this film is huge. From north to south and from east to west, there are lakhs of such youth in the slums of vast India, who, if they meet, are flocks and if they are decorated, they are the pride of the country.

The story of the film is simple. In the heart of Nagpur is a slum of the poor and neglected, in which teenagers and youths live to earn money by selling petty crimes, robbery and drugs. They themselves are intoxicated and are disoriented. From beatings to stabbings, it is their daily job. Professor Vijay Borade (Amitabh Bachchan), who is going to retire from college, sees him one day. When in the rainy season these children convert a small drum into a football in the field and Prof. Vijay feels that if he gets the right training, then he can become a great player. The film proceeds on this track. In which incidents like the match of these slum children with college students, the tournament of slums across the country and then the invitation of the Indian team on the initiative of victory for the International Slum Soccer Championship. In the midst of these incidents, the personal moods and struggles of all the characters are also revealed. Nagraj Manjule constantly makes socio-political remarks through several short scenes in the middle of the main story of the film. His favoritism is clearly visible and the slogan of Jai Bhim resonates in the film. Amitabh Bachchan is seen saluting the huge picture of Babasaheb Ambedkar. Amitabh’s performance is superb and he does not allow his superhero image to be reflected anywhere among the common characters.

The 178-minute swarm has two major problems. One speed and the other length. The herd is very slow, especially in the first part. Nagraj goes into many details and takes every scene of life on the screen in a leisurely manner. The scenes look good, but the level of sensation in them becomes more repetitive. The story stays on. The length of the story has increased with some extra and long scenes. Some characters also look extra. Nagraj has walked a long way here to speak his mind. This was not the case in his previous films. There is momentum in the other side of the herd and it increases with rapid developments. However, even here, Nagraj goes into the details and inflicts a severe attack on the society and the system. Especially the trek of Rinku Rajguru. When Rinku, the daughter of rural illiterate parents, is wandering to get a passport, a person opens the door to the system and says, “Here the person needs paper to be identified and even after death, the identity is from the paper itself.” it occurs. The man alive in front has no identity in himself.

The film tells us that as a society, we do not even look at the marginalized people. They live, they want to die. Opportunities are negligible for them. Government, system and society are almost insensitive towards them. While things are improved, the champions can come out from here. And it’s not just about the game. The biggest beauty of the film is its characters. The fake Bollywood heroes who hit the slums in style are not here. Those who do taporigiri in a fake way. The characters here are absolutely true. All the actors have given life in the given role and their glimpse remains in your memories. You get a glimpse of what Bollywood cinema might be like in the future.
