Karthi is flying high with the success of his latest film Ponniyin Selvan. He is back with a new action drama called Sardaar which has hit the screens today. Let’s see how it is.
Story:
Vijay(Karthi) is a sincere cop who always gives his best and his department is also quite happy with his efforts. He loves lawyer Shalini(Raashi Khanna) and is looking for bigger goals in life. This is also the time when a massive project named One Line One Pipe is being planned in the country. A few RAW agents want this project to be stopped at any cost. Left with no choice, they bring Sardaar into the action to deal with this situation. Who is this Sardaar? What is the connection between Vijay and Sardaar? What is this whole project about? To know the answers, you need to watch the film on the big screen.
Plus Points:
Karthi is becoming better with each film. He plays a double role in this film and aces it. The difference he showcases in two characters was super cool. He will be seen in different getups in this film and the body language he uses for each one of them is stunning. Karthi is one of the major assets and showcases himself in a new avatar in this film.
Raashi Khann gets a good role and she gives ample support to Karthi and looks good on screen. Yesteryear actress Laila was seen in a key role and it was so good to see her after a long gap. Chunkey Pandey played an important character and he is doing quite good with each film and was lethal in Sardaar.
The other heroine, Rajisha has also done a good job in her role. The fight sequences are slick and evoke interest for the audience. The manner in which the thrills are showcased in a stylish manner reveal how good the technical values of the film are.
Minus Points:
The stakes are quite high in the second half and there was scope for more drama and thrill but the director Mithran does not make proper use of it and shows some scenes in a very predictable manner. More crisp narration would have made matters even better.
The climax is good but this is not effective as one expects after seeing the entire film. A more solid bang in the end would have been quite good. The film starts on a slow note and runtime should have been edited a bit to make matters crisp.
Technical Aspects:
As said earlier, Sardaar is high on technical aspects. GV Prakash scores the music for this film. His music is average but the BGM composed is just amazing. The camerawork by Goerge Williams is stunning and showcases the film in a solid manner. The Telugu dubbing is also very good.
Coming to the director Mithran, he has done a good job with the film. He has written an action packed story and narrated it in a good manner. Had he made the film crisp, the output would have been a lot better. He has showcased Karthi in a solid manner and his fans will love him in a new role.
Verdict:
On the whole, Sardaar is an emotional spy drama which is stylish, and action packed. The film is a bit lengthy and has a few issues in the second half. But Karthi’s solid performance, strong content with good thrills erases all the issues and make this film a good watch this festive season. Go for it.
