I am a creative head and films are my passion.…

Ludo, in the film Ludo, is a metaphor for life. The film has four stories boxed in different colours, as we see in a game of Ludo. They are colour coded according to the shades of emotions.

Imagine a multi-narrative film so well made that every aspect of the lesson it tried to portray was well received.

Fir der kis baat ki. Aao jaane zindagi ki chausar:

The Essence of Blue

The colour represents Love, Purity and Trust.
Sheeja and Rahul are two young lovers victimized by their current life situation and find solace in each other.
There is so much trust and reliability between the two that they triumph even without communication with each other. Without each other, these two losers never really lost!

The Essence of Green

The colour is seen as the shade of Expansion and Jealousy.
Basu added the sentiment of irony and mockery in the relationship shared by Alu and Pinky.
While green also represents Harmony and Growth, these are the exact things that Alu is lacking in his life.
He is in a never-ending love loop with Pinky, who ruins him every time she enters.

Final Words on the Film Ludo

The Film Ludo strikes a fine bаlаnсe between the “nаrаm hаwа” аnd “gаrаm hаwа” thаt раsses thrоugh the lives оf its multiрle рlаyers.
Like the movie Jаggа Jаsооs, the film Ludо enters the sаme territоry аnd quietly delivers оn its рrоmise.
The final words of this Gen-Z are: “You can be as entertained as playing a game with your family!”

In the end, we notice that Ludo is a hyperlink, a word most of the critics aim for, but Anurag Basu made use of it. The movie plays well in expressing the Dices of Karma and Dharma.

Toh tu chahe feik pasa chunn ke, par zindagi ki hawa toh mudegi apne dhang se!
