Kranti is another addition to well intentioned concept isn't enough to make a good film. With all it's efforts, Kranti is another fan frenzy fare with ordinary treatment. Unlike the well hyped Roberrt, this one even resorts to ordinary fight scenes which get repetitive. The Old vine in new bottle film does everything to elevate it's superstar, gives him enough dialogues to preach about everything he wants to, throws him enough stuntmen to get beaten up, an item song to dance and a socially relevant issue for him to solve over a speech.
What it lacked was a better treatment. Random scenes are inserted for the sake of entertainment and it mostly don't work. There is no clarity about the father-son relationship, why the son was sent away for 20 years and them patching up lacks impact due to this. Nobody's a match to Kranti's character due to underwritten characters right from the heroine to the main supporting character to the two villains. I am just giving another 0.5stars extra for Umashree and Mukhyamantri Chandru's dancing in Shake It Pushpavathi song.
Kranti is just another forgettable Darshan film.
