Wazir Review

So, 2016 has been started, and the first movie that I watched this year is Wazir, directed by Bejoy Nambiar. The original story has been written by Vidhu Vinod Chopra. And then crafted by Abhijat Joshi.

Film starts with the marriage of Farhan-Aditi and the song Tere Bin. As the song ends, their daughter has ben introduced, and after that she has been killed during a shootout. So, ATS officer Farhan becomes a disturbed man. His wife also leaves him. He is also get suspended from his job. He breaks down. But then Panditji (Amitabh) has been introduced, who is a paralyzed chess grand-master. Their unusual friendship starts. Panditji helps him how to live with that pain, also reunites the couple. Panditji's daughter has been murdered by a political leader. But, the government refuses the fact. It's up to Farhan, to find the truth. In between, the Wazir (Neil) has been introduced, who is too sharp and smart. Will Farhan be able to find Wazir and the truth of that murder, is the question which will be answered in the film.

Bejoy is a kind of the director of Hollywood movies. His films have always something fresh which weren't shown by any other in Indian Cinema. Slow motion scenes are superb. The scene where Intermission has been displayed is one of the bravest one. No complain in direction. Even the film is very short, around 100 minutes. So the length is also a plus point. Editing is also sharp.

Film reaches on the top level with the stars like Amitabh Bachchan and Farhan Akhtar. Manav Kaul is also one of the finest supporting actors. John's cameo brings cheers in the theater. Neil looks like a villain. And the one and only Aditi Rao Hydari is so so so beautiful. Her costumes, her earrings, her expressions, her eyes full of tears, her eyes full of joy, her eyes full of unspoken words - everything is so perfect that again I fell in love with her. For me, Wazir is the best movie of Aditi till date.

Film narrates the story with the game, chess. So the title is perfectly suitable. Music is a major plus point. Tere Bin is soulful. Maula, Khel Khel Mein and Tere Liye Mere Kareem are good. Tu Mere Paas by Ankit Tiwari is a song which will be going to in your playlist for long. Atarangi Yaari in the end, is a fun to watch with a melodious tune.

Background music is of to mark. The song Aao Huzur played on the piano very beautifully. Dialogues are fabulous. Mohabbat to uss zamane me thi, ab to Love ka spelling bhi badalkar LUV ho gaya hai! Zindagi iss shataranj ki tarah nahi, yahaan Hathi-Ghodo ki jagah Kutte daud rahe hai!

Locations and sets are good. Kashmir looks stunning. Chasing of Farhan on the road of Delhi is breathtaking.

On the whole, go for it. The movie will not disappoint you. It is full of emotions, so go and enjoy this first good movie of this year!
