Bey Yaar
Director: Abhishek Jain
Setting: Ahmadabad and different locations of
Ahmadabad
Dialogue: Simple, typical Ahmadabadi and
meaningful, clearly understandable.
After grand success of his first debut film
‘Kevi Rite Jais’ Abhishek Jain make Bey Yaar and it also achieve success.
Characters:
Kevin
Dave played a role of Uday, movie begins with him, he is an artist and he is
narrator of the story; who narrates the story of two friends. 1) Chako
(Chintan) and 2) Tino (Tapan)
Story moves around two friends and their
desire, their plan and director mentioned some famous names of actors, directors
as well as artists.
For
example: Shubhas Ghai, Van Gogh, Al Pacino or even famous painter M.F. Hussein’s
painting at tea stall.
Manoj
Joshi played a role of Y.B.Gandhi; the art dealer. His character is very
interesting because he uses Chintan’s innocent nature and played with his
emotions. His character is gray shaded; he is very practical man and thinks
like a businessman and he always think about his profit.
Another
character is Darshan Jariwala who played a role of J.J.Bhatt, he is father of
Chintan. He has tea stall named ‘J.J.Tea Stall’. Typical Indian father who
teach moral lesson to his son. In the movie he is one of best friend of
M.F.Hussein. He had painting it was gifted by Hussein and painting was sign of
their friendship.
Pranav
Doshi played a role of Prabodh Gupta who helped to both friends in their plan. Famous
Gujarati columnist Jay Vasavda’s interview with Prabodh Gupta is also
interwoven with it. All characters have ability to make laugh at their own
situation.
Interesting study of woman
character:
Hardly
two woman characters are there 1) Chintan’s mother and 2) Samvedna Suwalka played
a role of Jigisha. Jigisha is more clever and intelligent than other character,
so her character played a vital role here. At some extent Jigisha’s character
is compared with Sophie Neveu in The Da Vinci Code. Jigisha is smart girl and
have ability to handle messy situation. Or she wonderfully manage technical
problems, with the help of his friend she create fake account and make plan to
defeat Gandhi and tried to get back pride and painting of Chintan’s father. She
is ‘helping hand’ of both friends and she also has ability to maintain tough
time between two friends.
Movie is best example of peace of art:
here art
plays major role, many dialogue represent artistic value. We are shown transience
nature of art. Because art is constantly changing.
Movie also focus on moral standards or proverbs like; ‘loiwya
hoy Tya> 2Utara wUqe na mre’, ‘jeva sa4e
teva’, ‘kro
tevu> wogvo’
Director
focus middle class and their situation, setting of the movie prove that movie
is simple tale of middle class man their desire and dignity. That how dignity
is everything for not only middle class man but for all.
In
short real essence of the movie is rustic locations, absence of ‘faka’, ‘dadagIrI’, ‘fighting’ etc but then
also like to watch it again and again. We are shown some short of greed.
Because of greed Chintan losses his father’s dignity and because of greed Gandhi
does all the wrong things. Story moves around friendship so it also gave
importance of true friend in one’s life and through Tapan’s character we came
to know that what true friendship means. Bey Yaar is package of comic Gujarati
movie with moral lesson and movie has also depth meaning and it has different
interpretations or views. Bey Yaar is one of the best movies in Indian Gujarati
cinema.
