Bhavni Bhavai is the film directed by Ketan Mehta the plot was located in the small village of Gujarat the film have story of king. The focus area film are untouchability satire politics imagination versus reality headset he is the film The Touch of reality at the every point.
The most not worthy thing of the cell is action reaction framing and dialogues which creates search of harmonic atmosphere the film is satire on politics and it's not about the great king who fight in the world in a painter listen to control the situation is seems like a fool and so innocent people have to suffer. The character of king its symbol of andher Nagri gandu Raja the name of the King Chakrasen(worldruler) is totally opposite from his character. Even Jivo(life) is like a cursed.
On the name of caste and class as well as untouchability the one who is marginalised have to keep mum and just sacrifice everything the film begins with Migration of untouchable people even it narrates like Bhavai(Street play). The worst situation of subaltern is described it through the character of jio and other untouchable people when the film Bhavni Bhavai ednds the film Do Bigha Zameen has been gone further.
According to Shyam Benegal,
" tradition in popular Indian cinema is not the reality but an ideal as an ideal it has been sanitized concerning itself not with the harsh realities of caste untouchability gender discrimination in the varieties of feudal economic oppression that exist in traditional society but rather to evokes a nostalgic sentiment and sense of belonging to the uncertainty is of tradition the idea of inviolability of the family signifying oneself for the family is considered highest virtue."
And the name of tradition some of the time people were exploited a lot and on the name of virtue,sacrifice for family or country is known as martyrs. The Sacrifice Of jio considered as a multi room but here it doesn't has which to do that and he was forced to be sacrificed he asked question,
" my head goes this way
my rest was that way
which side will be I on?"
It disturb and make audience think about existence of human being. Human being always have a search of self existentialism suits to connect it with the question of Jivo.

" Even if we accept the conditions we know how to crush them down"
According to Vidyarthy Chatterjee '
"If Ketan Mehta has chosen to retire from filmmaking after Bhavni Bhavai, he would still have been remembered for long as a major director, such was the strength, skill and subtlety of his first film. Bhavni Bhavai left the audience speechless with its then 28 year old director Ketan Mehta's daring innovative style, its formal experimentation, its visual richness, the hilarious, energetic performances of its leading players, and its deeply moving story which could be easily followed despite its disinterest in linearity. The film is radical as much in form as in its politics.”

The technique of two ending first one give relief to audience as it was happily ending but the second looks realistic and just like Franz Kafta said 'Axe for the frozen sea within us'.
Action and reaction is something to be noticed throughout the film economy of the kingdom is reason behind the foolish King the scene liking declared the word but not able to pull his own sword. The narrator described the king was crying because he doesn't has son and just after that was bathing buy milk when the news of Queens pregnancy declared by the lady sucking hard punished some untouchables so one of them was dead. All those scenes were intermingled with each other and its combination of opposites and satire.
