(2.5 / 5)

An upgraded version of David Dhawan movie by son Rohit Dhawan starring the hunk John Abraham and Varun Dhawan. John as always looking awesome with his masculine bulk body and David Dhawan did complete justice to his role. Movie is like next jolly Bollywood movie with larger than life actions, beautiful locations and songs. As shown in the trailer, the movie is all about kidnapping of a famous cricket player named as Viraj Sharma before a crucial match of India with Pakistan in a final of some series. Akshay Khanna is back as a villain in the movie as a cricket match betting mafia who kidnapped Viraj and the story goes on.

Johan Abraham from Special Force India and Varun Dhawan from Arab Police is chasing for the player all over the movie through various challenges and situations. Movie is very colourful as always following the legacy of father David Dhawan. The lacking point is about the soul of the movie, it was not that much entertaining. The plot is too much good for making this movie with more thrill and perfection. It looks like Rohit Dhawan lost the grab somewhere in between the movie. As compared to Desi Boyz, his first venture, it was awesome.

Jacqueline Fernandez is there in a supporting role adding little masala on the movie with her stunning looks and the song Sau tarah ke. There are two more surprise packages in the movie as cameo roles which I can’t reveal here as per the ethics. Saqib Saleem is playing the role of cricketer and he did complete justice for the same.

Overall it is a onetime watch if you wanna enjoy something light without brain.

Great Grand Masti – Movie Review

(1.5 / 5)

When the first Masti released in 2004, it created a sensation with new level comedy mixed with emotional drama, story and awesome level of acting from the trio. The level of the comedy and story decreased by the next released Grand Masti in 2013 and now Great Grand Masti is a complete wastage of time, money and talent of Ritesh Deshmukh, Vivek Oberoi and Aftab Shivdasani. No doubt they are fantastic actors but when the plot and story is not keeping the pace, the actors can’t help it.

As shown in trailer, movie is based on vulgar comedy like putting a Viagra capsule into a glass of milk increases the size of glass. Story revolves around a ghost of a young virgin girl living in an old Bungalow. As per story she died without living her desires and fantasy, hence the ghost is waiting there to get a male person to full fill here desires. To include the flavour of melodrama, Director Indra Kumar tried to add some family values of love and respect between the couples but ended up with poor acting and baseless emotions.

Urvashi Rautela is the ghost in the movie flaunting her dresses in every essence, like the ghost is having a complete designer wardrobe at her home. The three sex starved husbands, this time completely failed in the task of entertaining the audience.

Overall, it is not even a one time watch.

Sultan – Movie Review

(4 / 5)

A mind blowing performance from Salman Khan, really an Eid Gift for all. It seems like movie starring Salman Khan are setting up a new standard as a film and record in box office. It is a complete family entertainer with full melodrama and power packed actions of wrestling. In the beginning of movie, I felt it to be a little lagging but soon it paced up immensely to the top. Story is little predictable but the way it is presented, made the movie a thrilling experience. As shown in trailer, it is all about a middle aged wrestling champion from a village of Haryana who won various gold medals for India and became a world champion in wrestling. The core of the movie is wrestling but the story is driven by love and romance. Movie is giving a message of girl empowerment along with promoting the sport wrestling in a very nice manner. Young crowd and new investors should promote alternative games other than monopolized game of our country.

Movie is blessed with beautiful songs composed by Vishal-Shekhar and sung by brilliant singers like Rahat Fateh Ali Khan, Mika Singh, Sukhwinder Singh etc. My personal best one is Jag Ghoomeya by Rahat Fateh Ali Khan. Salman Khan rocked with awesome acting and dashing wrestling moves. His dedication and hard work is reflected on screen. Respect for the various transition he made with his body for various stages shown in the movie. Movie is a combination of flashbacks where there is a 30-year aged Sultan with little lean physique but not as a pro. Then there is 40-year aged Sultan with bulky and fatty muscles with a tummy. Then transforming into a trained Pro-Wrestler in the same age of 40 with huge muscles and excellent definition. This time the only flaw I felt is the Haryanvi accent by Salman which is ignorable as the other entire performance is outstanding. As per my analysis the weak point with Salman was the emotional roles he does, but this time he performed it with excellence.

Anushka Sharma is there as better half of Sultan in the movie, she is also an International Level Wrestling Champion who is the sole responsible person for building up the personality Sultan in this world. She is the backbone of the movie with outstanding performance. She tried giving a message of saving girl child, importance of girls in the society and evil they are facing in some parts of our country. You can feel it that she really took wrestling classes to be original in the shots.

Randeep Hooda is there in a cameo role as a trainer of Sultan for the Pro-Takedown championship. No doubt, he did full justice to his role. Anant Sharma as Govind, Sultan’s friend who backed up always with Sultan for all his journey of life was outstanding and awesome in the movie. He completely nailed the Haryanvi character in the movie. Can’t ignore Mr. Kumud Mishra as Guruji of Sultan’s Wrestling, he added real touch of a true Guruji Pehalwan. Other than all-star cast, you can see real people from the wrestling world in the movie.
