b:16 TEASER ANALYSIS

FAMILY.FRIEND.COUNTRY - What a tagline. The tag line tells all at once, and now that's a strike one gets from the teaser because it immediately catches the attention of audience who have either been fed on Hollywood Dark Thriller film or have been exposed to the Mumbai Masala Action Thrills. In that sense, Batch No :16 (B:16 they call it )too is an action thriller, having an eye on commercial success, something that indeed came its way when the film released its teaser.

The film deals with a troop of APF (Armed Police Force), which mission out to undress a drug and its kinda Mafia. The film plays its card of Love, Faith and Betryal on the very outset. A plot driven film, B:16 is unabashedly complex. However, it does offer solutions to the viewer scene after scene without keeping puzzled for most of its duration. If at all there is some piece in the jigsaw puzzle that seems missing,PITEMBER PANDAY (Director) hands it over to you at the very next juncture, hence keeping you pretty much engaged in the proceedings.

What also makes the entire experience so endearing are the performances, especially from Suman Singh ( a performance that surprises u for sure) and nwebie Arpan Thapa. There are more surprises in the form of Hottie Sushma Karki and Anup Baral. The film is a hardtime shocker where all characters change colours at every passing junctures. I bet you can't avoid it once it gets realesed nation waide. This one - Eagerly WAITING.
