Small budget movies must be supported because they often end up doing what big budget films don't find the courage to do. If you are looking for a simple entertainment film with a fresh story-line, then 'Cash' is the film for you. 'Cash' doesn't have established actors or stars, but it does have a new story, a good one at that, fast paced screenplay, good music and is quite entertaining to watch.
THE GOOD THINGS :
1. The actors in the film are not the ones we are used to watching in movies, but they have done a pretty decent job. Swanand Kirkire is a wonderful lyricist, but I had no idea that he could also act, quite well actually. Kavin Dave offers great support with his comic timing, a truly underrated acting talent of our film industry. Krishna Singh Bisht plays the crazy Qazi, a bizarre character who derives pleasure from pain. As a character he adds a lot of humour to the film, until his act gets repetitive. Smiriti Kalra plays the very typical lead actress who is made to look glamorous and sexy in every single frame. Smiriti plays the hot and cunning Neha, and her confident portrayal of the character is truly praiseworthy. Gulshan Grover does what he has always done, it seems as if he was born to play a villain. Amol Parashar is quite believable as the wannabe entrepreneur, who puts up a confident face even though he has no idea what his next step would be.
2. The humour of the film is sarcastic and satirical and often dark, which is rare in Hindi cinema. The story revolves around the 2016 Demonetization, and often ends up doing social commentary, which is truly admirable because not a lot of producers would gather the courage to attempt something similar.
3. In a movie like this, which is pretty much an adventure ride, you don't really want songs as they end up blocking the flow of the film. Also, since this is a small film, one would expect some average quality songs or remixes, but that's not the case with this film. The music of this film is surprisingly good. The songs 'Tera Hua' and 'Me & U' are extremely catchy and sound really good to your ears. There are just four songs in the film and they don't take up a lot of time, but importantly none of them qualify to be called bad. Also, no remixes, just like the story, the music is also original. Something to learn for the big producers of our film industry.
4. The story is original. The writers have created a story around the 2016 Demonetization, and unlike the sycophants that our society is filled with, they are talking about it in a very practical way. Today rich producers are scared of taking risks and are happy to remake a successful film, and one of them even famously said that there aren't a lot of good stories around, but a relatively unknown creative team has managed to produce a completely fresh film, and for that they have my respect.
