A very good movie that needs a lot of improvement...

The story was disappointing at first half of movie. This movie was my first exposure to Punjabi movies and unfortunately for me, this movie didn't come with subtitles. I therefore had to watch this movie depending only on their actions and visuals. I could only understand about 10% of the dialogues due to my limited knowledge of Hindi.

The acting of that corrupted police officer was terrible. He was acting like a 2-year-old the entire movie. The only person that gave a good performance was the main heroine.

None of the scenes in the movie felt like it was a true story. If you watched true stories like Rustom, Bhaag Milkha Bhaag, Special 26 etc. then you know what I'm talking about. The movie felt like an action masala and there was so many noticeable holes that made the movie feel nude for a while.

However, the story was very meaningful in nature. Everything that happened from the interval scene onwards was very thrilling and interesting to watch. There were a lot of cool scenes even though you question how certain scenes happen in real life and the plot-holes this film has.

This is a very good movie. I hope to watch it again if any subtitled one comes out. It feels good to watch it at least once. This is one movie that makes you want to watch it again (after a few months). I highly recommend this movie to anyone who wants to jump in to Punjabi movies.

And about real needhi singh and fake needhi singh.. I have seen the real person.. Real life needhi singh. Her looks a kind of dangerous woman.. But the fake needhi singh doesn't look serious she doesn't look dangerous..

best punjabi movie of the year
sidhuzzz23 July 2016
very strong character of kulraj in the movie.good story line a must for whole family.it is not a regular Punjabi film it has a strong message for women of day not to succumb to pressure of any kind.it has world wide appeal specially for India and Asian countries. the actress has done full justice to her role though their is no main male actor in the movie needhi singh herself has taken the task of taking the movie to its logical best. after long time one has come along a good Punjabi movie.directer Dhanda adds that though the film, set in Bhago Majra village in Mohali, is based on real events that happened circa 2011 — like gender violence witnessed by his friend's sister — the dramatised treatment is entirely his own.
