Indeed. Can't make this character up. 

 

 

 

Sanjay Dutt perfected this. 

 

People came for Rehman Dakait, but probably enjoyed Chaudhry Aslam the most.

 

His entry, where he meets those Balochis in South Pakistan salt desert was hilarious.

Among many things, I just didn't like how fictionalized most of the story was.

 

In part 2, there is possibly a battle between Mir Hamza and Ilyas Kashmiri, but in reality Ilyas Kashmiri got bombed by US drones near North East Afghanistan.

 

That 26/11 scene ruined my mood completely and I was waiting for the movie to end after that.

Animal has superior handling  of emotions,acting  and music.

 

It is just that it descended into sleaze couple of times and that triggered lot of people, who ended up hating it.

 

Animal triggered entire LW and a part of RW. But durandhar just triggered LW.

 

It is also that vanga does not handle criticism well. Gets triggered even for a 2p roadside jholawalllah critics


agree. dhurandar raised the bar technically. animal music and story telling was something else. I did like dhurandar music but a lot of it is old Bollywood and also US/UK rap from 25 years ago which is fine but not new ground

major iqbal by arjun rampal had me hooked. rampal brings a subtlety and mystique to the role. he was the stand out!

Agree bro. Brilliant acting by him. Invoked the kind of emotion that was expected from his character. Surprising that critics aren't praising him more.

i reckon moveis are marketed by AI now - it's obvious the objective was to make akshaye khanna and that song go viral.

That song going viral actually made the film a juggernaut. No one predicted this kind of success after day one.  At some places, there are showing it 24x7.

Yes, Chidu 

reinstated a blacklisted UK company that provided paper for printing money to the Indian government.. it was blacklisted by Prannb Mukherji.. The same company was providing paper for printing money for Pakistan as well.. It was alleged that the company had exchanged plates with Pakistan thugs. That was the reason for blacklisting the company.. after the Modi garment in 2014 the company was blacklisted again. This was all over the news back then.. it could be an allegation, but investigative journalism had connected the 

two. Also creative license for fiction is allowed to do this as well.. 

 

 

There are movies which show right wing politicians, being corrupt. Like in Rang e Basanti, the saffron defense minister is involved in causing fighter planes to be ineffective and crash on purpose.. that is acceptable for most but any kind of UPA corruption shown in movies is a BJP propaganda for the critics. This is doglapan. I am not saying this about @rkt.india

Looks like something is there on it in CBI files. Mayaram guy name has come up.

 

After reading this, felt the movie is spooky level real lol. @rkt.india

@rangeelaraja Mangal dasha making India and Indians pretty direct. Indian cricketers and now this. No nonsense nationalism even at the risk of being simplistic. Would like your views too on the movie. 

 

 

@ravishingravi   - all of this is hardly matters - its not substance. True substance is when Asim Munir and his cohorts will be history and 6 feet under.  

 

No matter what the narrative is - the reality is they don't fear us.  Even after Sindoor 1.0.  And did not fear us before that.

 

The fault is entirely ours. Hope that day is imminent.

This is a rare Bollywood film, that worked in every department. It shows the strengths of Bollywood. It can draw collections and talent from almost every corner of the country.

 

Now it has the capacity to deliver a 1000 crore film for every half year.

 

Having said that, the woke gang will try to hit back and spoil the party. Heard that stale franchises like don, dhoom and spy universe are coming up with next installments. I hope sense prevails and they are dropped into dust bin.
