This film is really wonderful and Ayushman's script choices has really impressed everybody a lot. Every single actor in this movie is literally the hero of the movie. The first half of humorous while the second half focusses on family emotions which makes the viewer emotional. A great film to watch with your family for sure !!
It's a good attempt in making a psychological thriller film in India and somehow it has suceeded. But 8.4 rating on Imdb is quite overrated. Given that this film took 5 years in the making is evident in the film as it is technically very good. The cinematography of this film is excellent. The biggest takeaway is the performances. Sohum Shah, who is both the producer and lead in this film is very believable as a greedy man Vinayak. Mohammad Samad who plays both the grand mother and Vinayak's greedy son is outstanding. The weakest point of this film is that it is slow which makes the viewer lose interest. But otherwise the audience will get fascinated by the sets and will appreciate the creativity of the makers of this film. Rahi Anil Bharwe needs to work as a director more frequently as director as he has got a lot of potential. Special mention to Aanand L Rai for producing this film.
Gold (2018) directed by Reema Kagti, who is known for directing films like Talaash and Honeymoon Travels and starring Akshay Kumar in the lead is the story about how India won it's first Olympic Hockey Gold Medal as a free nation. It is the story that needed to be told in the best possible way but lacks in execution. The plot seems to be rather fictitious and made up and it feels that the film lacks in research. The set design though is up to the mark according to that time. the pacing of the movie is quite good along with the editing.
In ChakDe though there was a performance of a lifetime from SRK but Akshay Kumar, sorry to say, has failed to perform to that level. The director has tried to make Akshay Kumar character looks funny but infact it is irritating !! Mouni Roy was decent in her role though she didn't had much to do in this film. The love story between Akshay Kumar and Mouni Roy also looked forced as they had zero chemistry between them. There are no memorable performances in this movie but the other actors have performed decently.
Overall this film is a decent one time watch even for Akshay Kumar fans but now the time has come for him to do other stuff also than these patriotic films.
