Love, sex aur dhokha -- that's a lethal combo and many a film-maker has integrated these elements in the plotline of his/her film. Tigmanshu Dhulia's new offering SAHEB BIWI AUR GANGSTER merges power and politics with love, lust and betrayal, resulting in a heady cocktail that hits your mind.
Let's go back a bit! Soon after the first look poster of SAHEB BIWI AUR GANGSTER was unveiled on Bollywood Hungama, the one question that avid moviegoers posed was, is SAHEB BIWI AUR GANGSTER a contemporary take on Guru Dutt's classic SAHIB BIBI AUR GULAM? Perhaps, the similar-sounding titles may have led moviegoers to ask this question. But, frankly, the two films just cannot be compared, though, I wish to add, the characters are borrowed from there, but the plot and milieu are entirely different.

Novel stories are the order of the day and you expect a formidable film-maker like Tigmanshu Dhulia to narrate stories that one hasn't heard/explored earlier. SAHEB BIWI AUR GANGSTER lives up to the expectations, on that front. Though it's not Tigmanshu's best effort [I genuinely feel he's capable of much more], I'd like to state that the film has several moments that bowl you completely, dialogue that deserve an ovation and of course, stellar act by the principal actors of this film.
