Bollywood Crazy Opinion: I like the screenplay and the realistic style of the makers. Before starting on the film, I must appreciate Karthik’s effort for this film. It was not an easy role and he did it with ease. There is a scene in the second half where the police investigate the injured Freddie. Then, after the police leave his house, we see Freddie smiling in a surprising way. You can see his face and you can understand that no one can do this role better than Karthik. Well, the story is good and the makers continued the flow in a normal way. A big question in my mind before watching this movie was, can Alayah act? My answer is yes, he has really played his role in a way that suits the role. Not the best movie ever, but definitely the heart of the movie was in the right place. The story is good and the presentation is the same. Only in the first half, we see a big twist and we think, the movie is simple and will end soon. Well, the movie is not very simple and has a lot of twists and turns. The last 15 minutes were the scariest part and I have no words to describe the ordeal that was shown at the end. So, the message of this movie is, sorry if you have made a mistake. Otherwise, you will have to pay a high price for it. The production value is good and the film is very much on point. There are less than 10 characters in the film, including Hardy’s Tototoise. The background music is good and I’m glad the movie ends before we get to the sound of the stars. We need to thank the director for making this film more realistic than a melodrama. Not an easy role for Karthik but he did his best here. There is a song in the middle and maybe at the end.
Freddie is directed by Shashanka Ghosh. It is written by Parvez Shaikh. It is produced by Ekta Kapoor, Shobha Kapoor, Jay Shivakarmani, and Gaurav Bose. Music score is given by Pritam and editing is done by Chandan Arora. Cinematography is done by Ayanka Bose.
The budget of the film Freddy has not been revealed by the makers but it could reportedly be around 28 to 30 crores.
All in all, Freddy is definitely a movie for moviegoers. You can learn a lot from Kartik Aaryan’s acting.
last word: Watch it for Karthik’s brilliant performance and direction. Alaya F’s efforts should be appreciated for his acting. I don’t know but after watching Freddy, I remember a Stanley Kubrick movie A Clockwork Orange (1971), especially the last 15 minutes.
