Taapsee Pannu got a disappointing outing in ‘Shabaash Mithu’, Mithali Raj deserves a better biopic

Bollywood actress Taapsee Pannu is seen in sports biopic Aaj Kal. After Rashmi Rocket, she has now brought Shabaash Mithu, the biopic of former women’s national cricket team captain Mithali Raj. Mithali Raj is the woman who presented the greatness of the women’s national cricket team to the world. The women’s national cricket team made India’s iron known all over the world by making big records at the world level. It was not easy for Mithali Raj to get women’s cricket to like in a world that likes men’s cricket. Society did not even think about women playing cricket, Mithali Raj changed such mentality with her own strength and courage. Now the Indian cricket team is recognized at the international level.

movie story

The film begins with Mithali Raj’s childhood. Where no one in her family even thinks that she can even think of doing something like cricket. No one even has any idea that Mithu can have any attachment towards cricket in his mind. The film narrates the ups and downs of the former cricketer’s life. Mithali, a fan of Sachin Tendulkar, was interested in cricket since childhood but Mithali was being given Bharatnatyam classes by her family members. Nuri is her friend who makes Mithali relax about her cricket. After this he met Sampath sir (Vijay Raj). Sampath trained both of them for 7 years. After that, after all the struggle with the family, Mithu reaches the sports academy. There he had to face new challenges. An attempt has been made to show the whole story of how Mithali made her mark at the International Cricket Academy where men dominated.

how is the movie shabash mithu

There is no doubt that the story of the film is inspiring. It is shown in the film how Mithu used to play cricket secretly from the family and gradually after all the struggle she became the captain of Indian women’s cricket team. He made many records in his name but was killed in the film direction and artistry. Mithali Raj, who is a celebrity, used to deserve better than this. Taapsee Pannu’s work in the film is quite cool. She could not do justice to Mithali’s character in the film. It is said that Taapsee Pannu is a good artist but she could not understand the role of Mithali. There was a crying scene in which her crying seemed completely fake. At the same time, director Srijit Mukherjee has also failed in his work. He has not been able to bring such a powerful story to the screen.
