Review of Ganapath

Ganapath (2023)
1/10
A Dystopian Disappointment. ...
25 October 2023
"Ganapath: A Hero is Born" ventures into a dystopian future, promising an action-packed narrative and a dual role for Tiger Shroff, alongside the legendary Amitabh Bachchan and the talented Kriti Sanon. Directed and written by Vikas Bahl, who also produced the film, this ambitious project falls short of its potential, leaving audiences with a painful narrative.

The film's premise, set in the year 2070, introduces Guddu, who transforms into Ganapath, a savior on a mission to protect his people from a notorious syndicate led by Dalini. While the concept holds promise, the execution leaves much to be desired.

It's surprising to see Vikas Bahl, known for delivering acclaimed films like "Queen," associated with a film that misses the mark. The narrative fails to engage viewers, and the film as a whole disappoints, especially considering the high expectations that come with such a cast and budget.

While Tiger Shroff's action sequences are undoubtedly impressive, they can't salvage a story that lacks depth and coherence. The film's attempt to set the stage for a sequel, even in the face of its shortcomings, adds to the frustration.

The music, featuring songs by Vishal Mishra, Amit Trivedi, White Noise Studios, and Dr. Zeus, along with the score by Salim-Sulaiman, attempts to inject life into the film but falls short of making a significant impact.

In conclusion, "Ganapath" is a missed opportunity, failing to live up to the expectations set by its impressive cast and intriguing premise. The painful narrative and unexpected shortcomings make it a disappointing addition to the world of dystopian thrillers. While some may still hold out hope for a potential Part 2, the film leaves much to be desired and falls short of what could have been a thrilling cinematic experience.
