Why Neeraj Pandey? Why ?
23 June 2018
Big fan of Neeraj Pandey . I like whatever he has made. A Wednesday set a new milestone in thriller genre, while Special 26 set a new trend of no nonsense con films and Baby was a benchmark for terrorism based films in Bollywood.

This time he tried to remake his earliest masterpiece. You know what I am saying. Two men with different views went against each other , while one strictly follows the political system and its principles the other is against it. The same story which made A Wednesday a hit, but doesn't work this time.

The 'common man' factor is missing. Neeraj Pandey's strength is to make movies with characters that connects well with us. But Aiyaary misses the point.

Another Important aspect of Neeraj Pandey films is acting. We have seen brilliant acing from Anupam and Naseer in A Wednesday , Almost everyone in Special 26(Akshay got more attention because he was not expected to do that kind of role) , Again everyone in Baby and Sushant Singh Rajput in M.S Dhoni. But this time, he chose the wrong person to lead. Siddarth Malhotra can not act(though he was a little better than here than in his previous films.). If he works with Neeraj Pandey in 50 more films , he will surely become a good actor(But 50 atleast).

The films becomes over the top at times. At almost 1 hour, we don't have any idea about what is going on. It is so confusing. There are few subplots among which, the real story lost.

It's not a Neeraj Pandey film at all.
