Never mind
I was a bit disappointed with Dev D, for its quintessentially a Bengali story and Anurag Kashyap moved it to Punjab. When the movie started I felt uneasy and it was hard for me to stomach the Jat landscape in which he transplanted the bhadralok's drama. But as the frames proceeded I stopped thinking about it, and truly speaking its a great movie. And its essence is beautifully brought out in the end credits which are first, shown upside down and then inverted to bring them in the right position. Basically, that's what this movie is about- a topsy-turvy retelling of the Bengali melodrama.
