Latest Reviews & Buzz for
Bajirao Mastani (2015)

First of all, let me clarify one thing that I'm not a fan of Sanjay Leela Bhansali. So, this is a very genuine review of his latest film.
Story is based on Bajirao and Mastani's love story. History is somehow different, but, the film is classic. The sets and costumes of Bhansali's film are always wonderful. This time I found thet the major plus point of the film is dialogues. Though performances wise, all the actors have done a great job. But, then also, the impact of the dialogues is very much high. I remember that I used to say something as the appreciation in every two-three minutes, because every one is delivering sharped and pointed one liners. Which can attack you on your head but leaves the scratches in your heart.
Music is wonderful. Because of the promo song of Deewani Mastani which was used to be shown in the theater before the release, has made me to watch this on the silver screen. Pinga is also a delight watch. Remo has choreographed it really well. Aayat is nice. The new version of Albela Sajan is also there. Malhari is very energetic. I don't like only Mohe Rang Do Laal. I think most of the viewers may get bore during that song. Lyrics are suitable.
Ranveer Singh has delivered an award winning performance. May be this year, all awards will be given to him, as I don't know any other good male competitor is there, except Sushant for Bakshy. I don't like Deepika, so if I write something about her, you may get angry on me. I like Priyanka, and she has given a fine supportive performance. Though, I want to see more, but, she is perfect in this role, as it has many shades of an Indian woman. Tanvi Aazmi as Bajirao's mother, has given a powerful performance. All the others are suitable. Irrfan's magical voice is there, too.
Scenes are very dramatic as well as real. So, you may find that it is just a story, but, will definitely connect with the characters as the film runs. I don't find it boring. May be first half is slightly longer. Climax is superb. There is some emotional touch in it that my eyes get wet.
Sanjay has given a super-hit movie. It's up to public now. Skip Dilwale. Go and watch this, you will love it for sure. May be I'll go for the second time, too. As Bhansali Ne Public Ko Movie Dee Hai, Timepass Nahi!
