This movie doesn't have any new story to tell. But it has all the required masala to keep your interest alive. This movie gives the feeling of watching an upendra movie. The dialogues have very deep meaning. They are true to life.

Many people find this movie anti feminist and that is because it has dialogues reflecting the reality of females. I feel there is no need to get offended when we appreciate Hindi serials like The Kapil Sharma show, FIR, hindi movies like Veer di wedding and Telugu movies like F2 (in the name of women empowerment). This movie shows the protaganist as a no-nonsense guy who can beat criminals irrespective of their gender.

Performance wise Dhruva Sarja is very good. He is in almost every frame. Dialogues suite the character and he has delivered them with perfection. Other characters don't leave much mark.

So if you like masala movies, you treat men and women equal and you will not be bothered by not so great story, this movie is for you.

One more thing, the movie definitely mocks sadhus but doesn't praise other minority religion unlike other bollywood movies. If a Hindu is mocking his religion and showing the truth, it can't be called as anti-Hindu movie.

Giving 1 extra star for dialogues.
