Movie Review: Bajranji Bhaijaan

So, after having read & heard uncountable reviews, I finally got round to watching the 500 crore blockbuster movie of 2015, "Bajrangi Bhaijaan". And let me tell you, I loved the movie. This, coming from a not so patient person who sat through a 3 hour movie, where every minute was worth it! 


Salman Khan is at his usual best & this may be one of his top performances of all times & the adorable six year old, Harshali Malhotra melted my heart with her dimpled smile & a power packed acting. Through her superb expressions, without a single dialogue, Harshali is clearly the star of the movie.

Shahida (Harshali), a six year old who cannot speak, is from Pakistan and gets separated from her mother on a trip to India. Salman Khan, plays Pawan Kumar Chaturvedi, a simpleton & a Lord Hanuman Bhakt who runs into Shahida & takes it upon himself to return the young girl to her family in Sultanpur, Pakistan. The story revolves around the trials, Pawan goes through to get the child across the border. Nawazuddin, who plays Chand Nawab, a freelance journalist assists Pawan in his mission in Pakistan.

The movie portrays secularism, brilliantly woven in the script & the smart dialogues. The love for humanity prevails over the acceptance of religious sentiments & touches the viewer's heart strings.

The climax however, is a little exaggerated & seems to drag on for a long time. Be ready to leave the theaters teary eyed with this one!

My Rating: 4/5
