The Hollywood Reporter

Bars are a recurring motif in Shadowbox/ Baksho Bondi, emphasising the loneliness and isolation of its characters. One of them will end up in prison by the end, as the recurring visual cannily foreshadows, but for now, they鈥檙e all trapped.

鈥淪hadowbox鈥� struggles to overcome its plain aesthetic, but its central drama is usually interesting enough, thanks to the impeccable depth of its performances.

Screen International

What is perhaps most impressive about the film鈥檚 approach is how little is overtly spelled out, and how much we understand about Maya鈥檚 troubled past without the need for unwieldy chunks of exposition. This is storytelling of economy and elegance.

Is there a more stoic face in Hindi cinema than Tillotama Shome鈥檚, especially when she鈥檚 being told she鈥檚 not good enough for something?

Cineuropa

A small, subtle film which tenderly pulls on the strings of our emotions, but we may often wish the timbre was more substantial.

Baksho Bondi is a moving portrait of an India that still has so much development to offer, and that still has to confront the deeply rooted tendencies of class consciousness.
