Tigmanshu Dhulia's rework of the classic "Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster" is a well written, adeptly executed & proficiently performed movie. This is yet another movie which showcases the abundant talent out there & proves yet again that Indian cinema is just not a "superhuman " hero bashing umpteen goons or candy floss romance.No character in this movie is out & out angelic or devilish but with shades of Grey which is how average human being is. And the happenings in the movie are not exaggerated or factitious yet shocking. The movie grows on the viewer as the screenplay travels through trust, mistrust, infidelity , betrayal , treachery , all leading on to a stunning climax which packs a punch.The dialogs are the strong point of the movie. It is bold, at the same time intelligently written. It is not all that grim & gloomy all through. There are loads of lighter moments. Though the movie is not of neo-noir genre, the screenplay is "neo-noir"ish.The attention to details that the director has taken into even minute of things deserves appreciation. The interiors of the Saheb's poorly maintained palace is an example that readily comes to mind.Randeep Hooda as the gangster Babloo is the real star. This movie will be a turning point in his fledgling career. As naive Babloo who is recently dumped by his girlfriend and as the movie progresses metamorphosis into a scheming gangster , Randeep is first rate. The variation in emotions he shows is excellent.He moves from being innocent , romantic , passionate & finally menacing as the movie progresses.Jimmy Shergill as the Saheb has done his part proficiently. Mahie Gill is not just glitz & glamor but performs well too. She is hot at the same time emotes well. She is turning into to a very promising actor. Vipin Sharma , Deepal Shaw , Deepraj Rana & Shreya Narayan have given ample support."Jugni" in Jaidev Kumar's music is an enjoyable number. Background score is adequate.Aseem Mishra has shot the movie in 90's style with ample use of the modern technology wherever it is needed.On the whole, "Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster" is must watch.Bottomline : Brilliant...!

Saheb,biwi aur Gangster revolves around these three protagonists. Saheb, played by Jimmy Shergill, a sort of king without money but only terror.Biwi played by Mahie Gill, is saheb's wife who is horny, manipulative and also little psychotic. Gangster(Bablu), played by Randeep Hooda is the ambitious sidekick. While Saheb is busy with his intense affair outside, Mahie gill seduces and manipulates bablu for her own motives.All of the characters are well crafted,they are clever and have their own personal agendas to keep things interesting. And when sometimes things may start to slow down, there are frequent sex scene(though short) to maintain the the pace,perhaps,this is where this films excels.All performances are good. Jimmy shergill plays his role well, Randeep Hooda also does a great job of playing a crass though charming gangster. Mahie gill also does an acceptable job of a seductive and desperate wife.Rest of the cast is good as well.In the end this is a great film with adequate action,thrill, drama, a little politics and a enough sex.

a remake of classic sahib Bibi ghulam of Mina kumari and guru dutt only that here Bibi knows what she wants and gets it and same with ghulam. Though it is never explained what killed sahib's first wife and why choti bahu is mentally unstable or goes brusque at the name of Lalit but otherwise story is good. It is just like how Othello or Macbeth were adapted to Indian story line by Vishal Bhardwaj. Politics of north Indian small towns is captured though political struggle is showed in only one dimensional way. acting by characters of minister and rival politician and their dialogues are terrific. Deepal shaw shines in whatever little screen time she is given. Only casting mistake I think was Jimmy sher-gill, someone like Ajay devgan would have looked better in this role. though movie slacks towards end but cinematography is good and so is pace. Tigmanshu's first movie Hassil was also a gem and so is this

Saheb biwi aur gangster is a really entertaining movie. Mahi Gill with her sex appeal, Randeep Hooda's role as a young gangster, and Jimmy Shergil's charm as a Nawab are great. The movie is based in a village in Uttar Pradesh, where Raja families are losing their status in today's politics. The Nawab lives in a ancestral haveli with his rani. He is short on financial terms. Other powers(gangsters) are also rising in the area. Babloo(Randeep Hooda) is a young gangster. The story revolving around these characters, is an enthralling ride of love making and local politics. Acting is what makes this movie so irresistible. A must watch.
