One Line Review: It's all about a minor trick gone wrong and turned into a menace in blessing's disguise. Positive Points: Story is fresh; performances are genuine. Negative Points: The film lacks engagement and literally drags you through; the story ends inconclusively. Plot: In the village of Bakrapur, the Qureshi family is suffering from financial hardships and is in dire need of repaying their loans. In order to make up for their financial hardships, Suraiyya (Suruchi Aulakh), the wife of Faiz (Majid) decides to sell their only goat Shah Rukh in the animal trade fair. This decision is also backed by Ansari (Asif Basra), who is Faiz's maternal uncle and is a known Fakir in the village. However, Zulfi (Shameem Khan) is not ready to let Shah Rukh go away. In no way he wants to part away from the goat. To help him retain the goat, Jaffar (Anshuman Jha), who is a hair stylist and also Zulfi's sister Naaz's (Yaushika Varma) boyfriend, comes up with an idea. He paints the Arabic 'Allah' on the goat's body with hair dye. On the day of the sale, he shows up from nowhere and reveals to Faiz and Ansari that the goat has the Arabic for God written on it naturally and hence the goat is a miracle. This not only stops them from selling the goat, but also Ansari uses the goat for his Fakir like gimmicks, thus cashing on the 'miracle'. This not only helps the Qureshi family to overcome their financial difficulties but also earns them a fair share of popularity in the village. However, this happiness is short lived when an Arab Shaikh declares that he wants to buy the goat. Direction And Other Technical Aspects: The film's direction can be compared only to that of 'Peepli Live', the difference here being that the film fails to engage the audiences. Though the story is good, it is certainly not put in a way that you will be interested to watch it all through. Cinematography is just fine and avoids camera angles and such tricks to bring in realism to the story. Performances: Anshuman Jha impressively plays the role of Jaffar, a confident, but helpful and compassionate youth who genuinely wants to help his girlfriend's family. Suruchi Aulakh performs her role well, that of an irritated and annoyed wife who wants to make a difference in her family conditions and is constantly frustrated over things going wrong. Asif Basra as usual is impressive with his role as a smart old guy, who knows how to cash on the situation and get a hang of it when things get adverse. Child actor Shameem Khan is good, though not that good in playing the role of an angry yet silent village kid. Music: The film doesn't have enough music, though Agnee has offered it for free. 'Pyar Mein Bakra' the love song is somewhat a funny song about the protagonist Jaffar and his girlfriend Naaz that goes parallel with the film's theme. 'Zero Balance Mein' is another love song, which shifts between classic and soft rock, but is not really a delight to listen. 'Om Shanti Om' the last one in the film is yet another parody song and a tribute to the 'bakra' Shah Rukh. Agnee has done the music and lyrics have been written by Abbas Tyrewala and Panchhi Jalonvi. Final verdict: 'Yeh Hai Bakrapur' is all about how an ordinary misunderstanding and more than that, man's blind belief can make the situation complex. Though the message is good, it feels that there is not much more to the film that than. Also the film lacks on engagement and entertainment. Though it is the performances that help you hold on.
