Baby Do Die Do starts on an intriguing note, in Sin City-style. Sometime later, it pays homage to Charlie Chaplin-style filmmaking in an important scene. Yet, director Nachiket Samant has a unique voice that shines throughout the film. The characters are quirky, while a few developments and twists are very captivating. The soundtrack is niche but unique and well-woven into the narrative. On the flipside, certain developments are puzzling and plain silly. A couple of characters' subplots are interesting when viewed individually. But in the film's narrative, they seem forced. An important plot point is conveniently forgotten after a while, making one wonder why it was even added in the first place. Huma Qureshi does not have a single dialogue, yet she speaks volumes through her eyes and expressions; easily one of her best performances. Rachit Singh is lovely and his scenes bring some respite to the otherwise dark film. Chunky Panday is marvellous while Seema Pahwa is dependable. Sikandar Kher is too good as the antagonist Arun Khushwah (Lucky) and Himanshu Malik (Mikky Murjhani) play well-written characters and are the surprises of the film. Marudhar Shekhawat (Manu) is another actor who impresses. Mangal Kenkare (Baby's mother) is okay and her character should have got more screen space. Vidya Malavade's cameo is decent. Rupesh Bane (Faizu), Kailash Waghmare (More), the late Ashish Warang (Constable Tawde), Pradeep Kabra (Bodyguard Maruti), Karan Dave (Goli) and Nishad Vaidya (Bunty Bhambani) are fair. All in all, Baby Do Die Do is a decent, stylish entertainer.

My rating - *** out of 5!
