Zwigato centres on Manas (played by Kapil Sharma), an odisha resident who lost his reliable factory work and is now striving to make ends meet as a food delivery driver. Manas, who relocated from jharkhand to odisha in search of a better quality of life, is now responsible for providing for a household of five, including his wife Pratima (played by Shahana Goswami), their two children, and his elderly mother, all while holding down a job that is becoming more and more difficult to keep.

Manas experiences a variety of scenarios, some of which are also covered in the news, in his quest to make 10 deliveries every day in the hopes of receiving incentives. His wife is working various jobs in the meanwhile to try to help. He and his family are suffering as a result of the terrible job market. director Nandita Das tells the tale of the working class in Zwigato, which we witness every day but rarely on the big screen.

Nandita initially leads you to believe that Zwigato is a straightforward, sombre slice-of-life tale. It serves as a reminder that delivery personnel are, at the end of the day, just regular people, discreetly prompting you to reconsider how you interact with them and perhaps even asking you to be a little more forgiving. But, when viewed in a broader context, Nandita's film delicately discusses the numerous forms of social inequality that the working class encounters without being preachy or making a political statement.

The delivery executive is requested not to use the lift or even enter the high-end restaurant since he is a delivery man in another situation where social inequality is evident. These scenes demonstrate the influence of strong writing and acting by sticking with you long after the movie has ended. It is interesting to find that Nandita, a shorter than two-hour film, not only chronicles the story of the delivery man but also sheds light on a number of social issues. Yet, there are a few scenes in the movie where Manas seems to be just a prop in social circumstances, and you start to lose interest in the main character.

By skillfully expressing the annoyance of a working-class man, Kapil makes him universally relatable. Kapil ought to try more things if this is how he acts in situations where there aren't any comedic undertones. You want Shahana to be happy since she is the modest yet striving wife.

Even while the movie serves as a type of mirror for society, not everyone will enjoy it. Not everyone will appreciate the art-house cinematography used in the movie. Like other bollywood movies, this one doesn't really have highs or lows or a huge ending, which can dull some viewers.


Nonetheless, if you like watching movies, I'd recommend giving Zwigato a try.
