Laaloo Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Yeah and that part about machli and sperm. Not sure if youve gotten that far yet. A lot of **** against Hindus. UrmiSinhaRay and sscomp32 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moochad Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 (edited) I haven't watched it, but from the reviews from people I know who have, that is indeed the case. I am going to give it a skip. Anurag Kashyap was the director no? that can speak to its content I guess. Edited July 22, 2018 by Moochad sscomp32 and UrmiSinhaRay 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FischerTal Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 kashyap knows bashing hinduism will not invite any repercussions, but bashing he who shall not be named invites a death sentence. sscomp32 and UrmiSinhaRay 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MechEng Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Hindu phobic or not, I'm not a big fan of Anurag Kashyap movies/series. He sells violence in the name of realism, way too much focussed on negatives of the society. Having said that, I'm not questioning his skills, he is very good at what he does.

zen Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 (edited) Ppl should be afraid at least in the sense that people would do almost anything to stand up for their rights .... Look what happened to Tibet .... Ind’s history, to a certain extent, has been shaped by ppl worrying about their own interests and trying to please others Edited July 23, 2018 by zen UrmiSinhaRay and sscomp32 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coffee_rules Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Even his Mukkabaaz has a Hindutva man as the main antagonist. He has a thing for being Hinduphobic ever since BJP came to power. So, Mumbai is terrorized not by Dawood, but some fictional Hindu (Gaitonde) gangster. UrmiSinhaRay and sscomp32 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hindu terror, all through the series in cohort with Islamic terror to cause major destruction which will cause Hindu retaliation in a global way. This is the same topic as in Quantico, done in a GoW style, with ample amount of profanity, sexual content, extreme violence and dark humor! If you tolerate the Hinduphobia, it is a good watch for the dark story. Edited July 23, 2018 by coffee_rules UrmiSinhaRay 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Number Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 The abusive language is a total put off. I don't believe gangsters talk like that. He has filled every sentence with g,l,c,b words. The plot is good and engaging. UrmiSinhaRay, sscomp32 and Laaloo 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UrmiSinhaRay Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 As someone who read and loved the original book, I think Sacred Games is one of the finest stories ever toldHowever, Anurag tends to inject a lot of his own biases into the stories to essentially ruin them.

asterix Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 I enjoyed the episodes even if it’s going to direction of Hindu “terrorists”...Maybe that’s the reason most Hindus are generally considered liberal...

Remember the scene where Manoj Bajpei openly threatens via public addressing system to return the girl or face consequences? In real life the exact opposite happened . sscomp32, Gollum and UrmiSinhaRay 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vilander Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 makes sense to watch originals instead, aka some b grade series made in US out of which this crap is probably 'inspired' and does it have the tool saif in the lead - no thank you.

Vilander Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 sacred games ..what kind of crap name is it anyway...sacred games...is it a pun on hunger games ? that story actually had games...is this on games that evangelists play because what they consider holy ? did the moron forget Hinduism has no parallel for evangelists though, thats where probably this borrowed 'inspired' concept will fail..lol 'bollywood'.
