Bhonsle On SonyLIV is a slow, striking film. Director Devashish Makhija takes deliberate care and precision to set the mood of the film with each shot, emphasising the depressing desolation of Bhonsle’s life, the desperation in Vilas’ and the fear in Sita and Lalu’s.@SonyLIV

What a magnificent restrained performance by @BajpayeeManoj #Bhonsle is about standing up to the bully without losing your dignity. It’s visceral & in your face. Outstanding performances @SantoshJuvekar #IpshitaChakraborty #ViratVaibhav Congrats #DevashishMakhija 👏🏾❤️🤗

Honestly saying, watching @BajpayeeManoj performing is a blessing in this era. Many other not so media famous artists as well. He is in Bhonsle On SonyLIV. Worth watching I guess.
