I'm a bad person, son. But you, you've outdone me, you've grown into an amazing bastard! When I saw the poster with the horned and multi-armed Vikram, I decided even then - I must watch! Well, when I read that his son, Druv Vikram, plays the second main role in the film, the movie became a mast-si. And yes, I wasn't disappointed. Vikram and his son gave a very high-quality and interesting product. Cinema leaves an aftertaste, probably, for everyone, but leaves it. This is a black comedy, and an action movie, and the hell knows what it is. Words are hard to describe, you have to watch. Well, the game of Vikram can be described only in one word - Mahaan (Great).
Probably, a rare man in his 40s does not begin to regret the years spent meaninglessly (I will say secretly that women also regret this). And in general, it does not matter how his life went - whether he is married or single, whether he has children or not, whether he leads a righteous or marginal lifestyle. He's starting to look for himself. And as usual, it is found that he is unhappy, and he, the poor man, lives not as he wanted in his youth, and it is everyone’s fault, but he himself. Friends, parents, if he's married, he's the villain's wife! The wife is so damn righteous that she does not drink or smoke, and does not give her husband. Don't let the poor husband relax. Our hero, Gandhi (!), who was named after the great Mahatma, lived a righteous lifestyle until the age of 40 and read economics at university. And then he hit forty. There was something in his brain, too. On his birthday, his wife left with his son, and Gandhi went to the bar and there met a guy who was the son of his childhood friend. Well, they did. The wife came, the husband is not home, then he showed up from the bodun, scandalized, he hit her. The wife turned out to be a woman of high principles, took her son and dumped him into the sunset. Gandhi was left to himself, having burned a little, together with a childhood friend built a pretty alcoholic empire the size of a state, and generally everywhere they sold their wine. Now, it's a story, a story begins when Gandhi's son Dada grows up. . .
You can talk about Vikram as an actor for hours, but he is really great. Yes, he got old and gave up, but still a phenomenal uncle. And I'm glad that this movie shot, maybe his son contributed to it. Druv is not very similar to his father in appearance (except for scenes where he has a mustache and a beard), but here are the habits, manner of holding, even the tilt of the head ... and in general, when they are close, you can immediately see the frenzied shine in the eyes, whose son he is. You can see the guy has talent. And he felt sorry for his hero, and he was very angry - empty and cruel, although what else to expect after his mother's upbringing as a fanatic. Their story touched me, but the downside was the fight against alcohol. For India, where there is a lot of drinking, this is important. But for me, the wine story was separate, and the son and father story was separate. However, the breakdown in their family happened because of alcohol. Probably, if it wasn't for Vikram, then no one would even watch this alcohol war. . .
Bobby Simkh was very pleased, he is a wonderful character actor, and I am convinced from film to film of his talent. Righteous wife played Simran, a bad character, but probably it was intended by the director. Anyway, guys, look with pleasure. The downsides of the film are few (yes, by the way, it is long!), pluses much more!
