Amitabh Bachchan, Kareena Kapoor, Manoj Bajpayee, Ajay Devgn, Arjun Rampal, and Amrita Rao in Satyagraha (2013)

Satyagraha is the story of a son who yearns for a father. Of a father, who grieves for his lost son. Of a young woman who fights so hard with life that she has forgotten to love. Of an ambitious rabble-rouser, for whom action is the knee-jerk mantra. It is the story of how these four discover one another, and come together to raise hell, shaking the powers that be to their very roots! But, Satyagraha is also the story of an influential power-hungry despot who will stop at nothing to destroy them. Satyagraha: The revolution has begun!

The sad story of the Indian political-public scenario

The politics of the politicians on which the country runs is the crux of the movie. Mix it with the regulars corruption, employment, poverty etc and add to it a tinge of uprising, peaceful revolt and end it with violence, sabotage,guilt. Look around happens everyday, if just the soul of the movie is seen it hits the mark, but coz its prakash jha, it goes a little overboard. The movie sets a sad tone, a hard look at the facts of society today. Amitabh Bachchan: His presence is enough. Brilliant. Ajay Devgn: from a himmatwala to a satayagraha the man is the most versatile actor Hindi cinema has seen in recent times. Excellent. Kareena, Arjun Rampal, Amrita Rao and Manoj Bajpayee all of them tgthr bind the movie really well, all in important but not lengthy roles. Overall not for those who are into senseless nonsense Bollywood doles out neither for the serious ones, it is for those who enjoy a good movie and know it is a movie! Can be definitely seen once. Special Mention to Prasoon Joshi for the brilliant lyrics of "Raghupati Raghav"
