Ajay Devgn’s actioner ‘Bholaa’ hit the theatres on Thursday, and the movie has been creating a buzz ever since. As expected, the superstar has delivered a performance that is nothing short of phenomenal, both as an actor and a director. Moviegoers have been raving about the movie’s adrenaline rush and the emotional quotient it carries, and the film critics have echoed these sentiments.
Film critic Sumit Kadel has given the film a glowing review, praising Ajay Devgn’s intense acting and phenomenal action scenes. He states that as a director, Ajay Devgn has outdone himself, creating a visual 3D spectacle that still keeps the pace and soul of the story. Kadel also commends the supporting actors, especially Tabu and Deepak Dobriyal, for their excellent performances. He further adds that the background music by Ravi Basrur has elevated the film’s impact, and Bholaa has done complete justice with the original film Kaithi.
Rohit Jaiswal, another film critic, has also given the movie a four-star rating, hailing it as a pure raw action film with a strong emotional background. He notes that Ajay Devgn’s action scenes have taken the film to another level, while Tabu shines once again, and Deepak Dobriyal looks evil. The screenplay and execution are fabulous, he adds.
The Twitter reactions from the public have been equally positive. One user wrote that Bholaa shines due to its emotional quotient and action sequences. Another user commended Tabu and Deepak Dobriyal for their solid performances, and Ajay Devgn’s brilliance as an actor and a director.
Bholaa review: Ajay Devgn and team deliver a gritty and worthy remake of Kaithi
Bholaa is a whirlwind of action that leaves little room for a breather. The screenplay, crafted by Aamil Keeyan Khan, Ankush Singh, Sandeep Kewlani, and Shriidhar Dubey, keeps the audience engaged from start to finish. The action sequences, one after another, seamlessly blend together, creating a thrilling and cohesive experience. While the plot, written by Lokesh Kanagaraj, is captivating, those who haven’t seen Kaithi may find themselves lost in a never-ending game of cat and mouse between Bholaa and the relentless criminals chasing him. Aseem Bajaj’s cinematography is worth noting, especially considering the majority of the film is shot at night. However, the darkness can make it difficult to highlight the visual elements, leading to some confusing moments.
Ajay Devgn’s spectacle showcases the actor’s talent as an actor and director. The film features some of the most phenomenal action sequences, and Ajay Devgn delivers an outstanding performance. If you’re a fan of well-choreographed stunts, then Bholaa is a must-watch. Imagine, the film turns a theater into a stadium, and viewers will cheer and clap each time the hero shows a gravity-defying move. Bholaa is a full-on mass entertainer that promises to keep you on the edge of your seat.
Despite the high praise for the film, there are some shortcomings that can’t be ignored. The movie falls short when it comes to a meaningful story or a narrative that adds value. Bholaa tries to recreate the same magic as its Tamil counterpart, Kaithi, but falls short on many levels. The storyline is sidelined by the larger-than-life action sequences, which can impress only for a limited time.
The movie focuses on a prisoner, Bholaa, who is finally going home to meet his daughter after ten years of imprisonment. But his journey turns out to be difficult when he is asked to drive a truck full of unconscious police officers, and a drug mafia is on the loose trying to get their cocaine back. Bholaa turns into an undefeatable force, fighting them all, and that’s the plot that keeps the audience busy for 2.5 hours.
The movie’s shortcomings are noticeable, but Bholaa has still managed to turn the theatre into a stadium with its well-choreographed stunts and the public cheering and clapping each time the hero defies gravity. Overall, Bholaa is a full-on mass entertainer that combines action and emotion, making it a paisa wasool material.
