Tumbbad movie review: A fey, beautiful and dark masterpiece

Deccan Chronicle  

Director: Rahi Anil Barve Cast: Sohum Shah, Mohammad Samad, Anita Date and others. Director Rahi Anil Barve has crafted a film reminiscent of the traditional stories which are beguiling yet simultaneously frightening. Penned by Mitesh Shah, Adesh Prasad, Rahi Anil Barve and Anand Gandhi, the film begins in a village called 'Tumbbad' where it rains incessantly. Director Rahi Anil Barve has fashioned a dark, violent, exquisitely realised world filled with strangeness. The stunning production design by Nitin Zihani Choudhary and Rakesh Yadav, Pankaj Kumar's impeccable cinematography and Jesper Kyd's terrific background score are some of the crucial factors to make Tumbbad what it is.
