Its a master piece movie, it deserves all the awards !
Got goosebumps on the first scene , made me cry at the end. Its a master piece movie, it deserves all the awards ! Alia Bhatt was mind blowing and Ajay Devgan just played the role like a real Don. Sanjay Leela Bhansali, Best Director. The entire team has done a mindblowing job to get the screen play right, The sets are mind-blowing, I would recommend this movie for a National Award for sure. I would definitely recommend this movie.
I have not written a review for any movie so far, but this movie was so good that i have to write a review and give 10 / 10. Please watch the move and write your review here for sure. - bcarsonmail-948-209718 - 1 September 2022
Gripping but cleaned up.
Alia Bhatt is riveting as the heroine, tricked into prostitution, who ultimately triumphs. Although it is a bit too cleaned-up it is a fascinating (based loosely on reality) story. She is deceived, abandoned, raped multiple times, prostituted and beaten up to the point of near death on several occasions. However she always recovers to be fabulously beautiful, kind and clever.
It is of course within the Bollywood fantasy genre and as such must fulfil audience expectations.
Regardless of those constraints it is a very well written script, has great central performances and a solid mass of background artists. I particularly like the Director and cinematographer's experimentation with dark hues which overlay the normal brilliant sun or pitch black night of most Indian films.
Worth a few hours to immerse yourself in the world the movie created.
