Lot of effort from few actors can be seen. Director also has put in effort to bring the era, language, and people of 1970s. Where director has erred is, he is bringing totally unwanted political dialogues, situations and backgrounds in a boxing movie !! Uncalled for.. In fact, some of these scenes seems to to have been forcibly (voluntarily or involuntarily !!) introduced. In a scene, a political party flag seen totally unmoving (still picture introduced later after shooting ?!!) even though all characters are talking in the background for a half a minute. Even many dialogues related to supporting one specific party and seems to have been forcibly included after shooting all shots ?!! This brings down the class of the movie.. Movie may be called a success, but for ever these failures will remain..
