The Mother Of All Action Films : Riveting Till The End
8 June 2014
To start with, I dislike violent movies and usually can not watch them.

This one was different. It was action packed till the very end with more than a reasonable dose of gore, but riveting nonetheless.

The story unfolds horrifyingly, more so when you realise that there are feudal pockets like this still remaining in some parts of India where 'rule of law' is not even a theoretical concept. Yes there is violence but the story line is interesting to the point that you just must keep watching to see what happens next. The interest factor is sustained so that one does not feel the movie is dragging unnecessarily.

Karishma Kapoor has superbly portrayed the terrified newly widowed mother. Nana Patekar does what he does best. Shahrukh Khan's black humour delivered effortlessly in the most natural way, is after all his trademark that has made him the actor he is. Deepti Naval did well. The little boy child actor was convincing, the cinematography was outstanding.

This is a violent movie, NOT SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN.

For adults even those like me who do not care for violent movies, it is riveting and holds the interest right till the end. Do watch it.
