My first ever review for a movie in my life, watched this movie in Cineplex, Vancouver, Canada towards the end of 2nd week, usually theatres are empty after such a long run but to my surprise it was house full.
Despite the story is out and many know what was the movie all about, i would like to share my views on the movie which not many bothered to share
1) Bhai log, its an emotional ride, I donot know why the hype was much on to the side of violence, Love overrides violence in every aspect, just watch this movie from your heart.
2) Worlds best son wins the heart of the worlds tough father towards the end, this is the victory of every lover.
3) Animal in him comes out when someone dares to even talk about his father, now would he spare anyone who attempts to murder his father?? think, now you know the answer!!
4) Women were said to be mistreated by a few critics, I personally did not feel this in any part of the movie, Ranbir in one scene says to lick his shoes to Tripti to test her love towards him and thats it, will he let her lick his shoes, ofcourse not!!
5) Im bowled over by the Climax, while the audience is deep dived into the emotions of Ranbir & Anil , you now get a Bouncer out of no where!! kudos to the climax!!
6) As per my knowledge, the movie is made with 38 Crore budget ( excluding the marketing) and the returns are around 12x - 15x, the biggest profit earner in the recent times.
7) Almost all the scenes are brand new and out of the box, very fresh to your eyes, surely out of the traditional norms that you expect in a movie.
8) Parineeti chopra was selected as the lead actress in the beginning ( later the director felt that she was not in the groove for the character when 2nd level of audition happened, later he called parineeti and apologiezed to her, obviously parineeti felt bad) later replaced by Rashmika,
9) Cost of the Machine gun is around 1 crore INR, its custom made by a company.
10) Even for next 100 years i will not be convinced that any actor other than Ranbir could have justified this role, he is the gem of Indian Cinema.
11) Movie's music is composed by multiple music directors, earlier director thought to choose Preetam chakraborthy, but preetam did not have any dates in his calender, so its a multi lingual, multi music director movie.
12) He does not do any violence with out any good reasoning, so there is a logic for his actions, he is animal when someone comes to his family!!
Last but not the least
13) Director is born in Warangal which is considered to be the one of the heart of the Telangana statehood agitation
Thank you for your valuable time, cheers.
