🎬 Title: Das Capital

Gulamon Ki Rajdhani

Story: “Das Capital” paints a vivid picture of rural northern India, putting the spotlight on the main character, Purshottam Ram, portrayed by Yashpal Sharma. He finds himself caught between his obligations to his family, unethical employers, and a tainted political landscape. The film showcases powerful performances from a strong ensemble cast, including Pratibha Sharma, Jameel Khan, K.K. Raina, Ravi Jhankal, Manoj Pahwa, Seema Pahwa, Anupam Shyam, and Rajpal Yadav, who together bring life to essential roles in the story. Originally conceptualized in the 90s and taking decades to script, the film was shot in 2012 and is now available for streaming on the OTT platform Cinemapreneur. This project is a heartfelt tribute by the late, esteemed Indian cinematographer Rajen Kothari, who sadly passed away shortly after its completion in 2012.

Editor’s Note: In “Das Capital” (2020), Rajan Kothari delivers a tightly woven narrative that emphasizes character development over superficial spectacle. Yashpal Sharma, Rajpal Yadav, and Manoj Pahwa provide solid, unpretentious performances that ground the film. With a run time of 1 hour and 40 minutes, it maintains a steady pace and avoids unnecessary prolongation of scenes. Reception has been varied; however, viewers will appreciate its mood and atmosphere. The tagline, “Gulamon Ki Rajdhani,” aptly reflects its thematic essence. If the premise intrigues you, consider adding it to your watch list.
