‘Mr. Cool' refers to the cinematic myth of James Bond through a pop-surrealist, maximalist lens. In this electrifying composition, Bhatt reconstructs the experience of watching a Bond film—the exhilarating rush of espionage, action, and crime—capturing Bond’s suave personality. The silhouette of Sean Connery, embodying the archetype of a man cool under pressure yet lethal in action, is framed by iconic symbols like the gun barrel aperture and '007,' nodding to the franchise’s legendary opening sequence. The recurring graphic patterns are reminiscent of the sixties, when both Bond and pop art reigned supreme.

Bhatt’s abstract approach interweaves layers of bold colour, fragmented imagery, and nostalgic references, creating a composition as kinetic as the spy thrillers that defined Connery’s reign from Dr. No (1962) to Diamonds Are Forever (1971). The artist constructs a visual field where Bond’s adventures, with their dreamlike landscapes and exaggerated stunts, echo the surrealist influence of fantasy.

In ‘Mr. Cool’, Bond’s presence embodies the paradox of a man who is as suave in a tuxedo as he is ruthless in the field. The composition brims with cinematic iconography—popcorn, film reels, and stylised geometric elements—where pop art merges with visual entertainment, embedding Bond’s legacy as the ultimate secret agent into cultural memory.

‘Mr. Cool’ is an ode to the enduring power of enigmatic icons, where legends, whether on canvas or on screen, are rendered timeless.
