Hollywood has plenty but bollywood has rare In Bollywood normally stunts are done by body doubles or sometimes by actors themselves but with the help of cables and all(Even Akshay falls into this bracket) but now finally we have an action hero who doesn't use the cables and other security measures and performs dare devilry stunts Vidyut Jamwal who debuted as a villain in FORCE(by the same makers, it also has a reference in between) and Tamil film Thupakki(2012) makes his debut as an action hero in bollywood. Few decades back, Vinod Khanna and Shatrughan Sinha debuted as villains and then became heroes in point of time The film however follows the typical formula which is done to death We have all the mas ala into 1 film. The hero is a commando who is captured by the Chinese at the start and tortured for 1 year and his own army people untie all bonds with him, except Darshan Jhariwala. We have a heroine who runs away in the fear of marriage to the villain AK 74(as he was born in 1974 he claims that name), he is a big guy in some place near the border of Punjab and Himachal.He has no eyeballs and yet can see(something so corny). The rest of a film is typical action film where our hero single handedly bashes the goons and then there are several chase sequences. The conflict of the army isn't given much prominent and only comes in bits and spurts. More focus is on the hero vs evil. There is a forced love angle, a forced song Saawan Bhairi played in slow motion which looks like an irritant and an item song towards the end. The action scenes are refreshing for bollywood at least, in the days of Himmatwala type films it's a revelation. Drama isn't that impactful, Emotional scenes too hardly gather any impact
Direction by Dilip Ghosh is okay Music seems forced but is OK
Vidyut Jamwal makes his solo hero debut and does a good job in his role, though his act is restricted to flexing his muscles and he isn't given much scope to act but he does well Pooja Chopra who played bit roles in Fashion and Heroine does an okay debut, she seems confident but has to improve in emotional scenes Jaideep Ahlwat does a superb job as the clichéd villain who reads out sms jokes even at crisis situations and keeps playing games on his mobiles, he enjoys his role but those eyeballs.... Darshan Jhariwala is okay while the rest are okay
