‘Udta Punjab’: Engaging and Power Packed
Udta Punjab has finally released and the curiosity that surrounds its release is proof that the Censor Board did some commendable PR work!
Moving away from the hullabaloo, however, director Abhishek Chaubey must be praised for making a hard-hitting and engaging film on the subject of drug addiction. Further, the music in the movie has been used to stunning effect.
If the second half had been better edited and the pace was a little more urgent, Udta Punjab would have soared.
Catch the movie; we promise you won’t regret it.
