I had very huge expectations from this film but lets down in every way..
Negatives:-Soo many plothiles missing in the story and there is absolutely no professionalism in Anup Bhandari's work this time out.. He had nothing new to offer from his side..neither to script nor to direction.
Poor ripoff of rangitaranga, with very similar villain and very similar climax ((((SPOILER :- I SHOULD SAY XACT SAME CLIMAX .. JUST LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT WAY OF GETTING THERE )))).
I was really pinning my hopes on the movie having a fresh concept sm based on phantom or a new hero but this is rangitaranga copy paste ...ABSOLUTELY DISSAPPOINTED... Another problem is there is no proper continuity in the story and dialogues are not given enough time for audience to connect. No ones dialogue delivery is upto the mark apart from Baadshah . Its just one dialogue after another with no connection to film..And most of the dialogues are not even required. Movie places comedy here and there which works averagely well but there is very quick transition from comedy mode to serious mode which again really fails to make audience connect..it has not been clear cut or well planned...they just piled one scene after another without giving it a structure and drew soooo sooooo many substories and a useless love story ,mother son story, which is there only to add to the unwanted 90s melodrama. Also chikkibombe song is complete bs. Illogically placed .
Jacqueline should hv had a stronger role. Rn they just used her as a bait for hindi audience. Also the script is soo diluted with unwanted dialogues and chenistry that we dont connect with main story. Had the movie been crisp and tight it would have definitly had a better impact. As an editor i can easily cut 40-50 minutes of this movie as they had no impact whatsoever. Also the story has lot of jumps like Eg:- sudeep is investigating sm jump to sudeep making daughter sleep jump to nirup and neetha investigating jump to sudeep finding new body jump to nirup neetha love story and bs. No proper connection point. KGF for example completly nailed this type of execution but anup bhandari screwed it up. As a Kichcha Sudeep fan I am sorry to say really dissappointed yaar...
Positives:- Cinematography and Visuals- i need not even say it. We all know how mindblowingly cool the trailer looked and the movie does not fall short. Though as a movie its not gr8 the cinematography can really be seen as a huge milestone for indian cinema. 95 Crores and the world they have created is absolutely surprising.
Confusing Storyline :- Many people are deeming this as a negative but i was actually intrigued by the way they were setting up more and more people as a potential villain. It really makes you think but anyone who has seen rangitaranga can crack it in the first 30 minutes...but r sure to keave their head scratichung at the interval only to prove u were right all along in climax ....
BGM Score :- TOOOOO GOOOOOOOOD !!!! Hats off to Ajaneesh.. the bgm is sooo good that at times u feel like the bgm is not made for movie but movie is made for bgm.
BAADSHAH KICHCHA SUDEEP:-I dont even need to say anything..Sudeep is way too good for this movie.
I should say the only reason I was able to find the movie atleast endurable was sudeep. That cigar , The jacket and that whip. Just woooow..for his style snd attitude.
Overall 2/5..firm watch for hardcore kichcha fans but others can just go to see stunning visuals.
