‘Shabaash Mithu’ review: Laboured innings that loses way after a promising start

The Hindu  

In the first half of Shabaash Mithu, the low-profile coach Sampath Kumar tells a young Mithali Raj, after an indifferent performance in a practice session, that she should be grateful that there are no big social hurdles in her path and compares her background with that of her bosom friend Noorie who played for seven years without telling her parents. Shabaash Mithu Director: Shrijit Mukherji Cast: Taapsee Pannu, Vijay Raaz, Mumtaz Sorcar, Devadarshini Runtime: 156 minutes Storyline: A biopic that chronicles the life of the former captain of the women’s national cricket team., Mithali Raj No offence to the staggering records and stature of Mithali Raj in international cricket, but in a cinema hall, one would like to know more about the lives of Noorie and Neelu. Very much like Mithali’s coach, Srijit expects Tapsee to stretch with one foot inside the increase. It becomes all the more apparent after the winsome flamboyance of young Inayat Verma and Kasturi Jagnam who play the young Mithali and her friend Noorie respectively, without any artifice.
