With an explosive and bloody final sequence, Bokshi’s effort to demonstrate the horrors that are created through the oppression of peoples, whether that be due to gender, sexuality, ethnicity etc, is commendable Go to Full Review

Although not exactly easy to watch, with the duration definitely not helping in that regard, “Bokshi” is definitely a competent debut, that benefits the most by the fact that Saikia seems to have utter creative freedom in his movie. Go to Full Review
