Review of 'Heroine' - Bollywood movie

I really wanted to watch this Madhur Bhandarkar’s much awaited release. The day was Saturday night, the day after the theatrical release. It was the Last show in Cinemax.
Has Madhur Bhandarkar really done better than his previous movies?

The answer is really iffy. I mean, I can understand all the glitz and sham of film world but exaggerating it so much doesn’t really serve any purpose. If you have watched Page 3, Fashion and Corporate then just mix it together. The feel I got while watching ‘Heroine’ was all the same. If I spell it out then it’s all about Drugs, Sex, Pressure, Power, interaction with bisexual people and that’s all. I think I am getting a monotonous feel in all Bhandarkar movies now. I understand that he wants to broadcast reality and the darker side of life.

Give me a break! These are not the only things really happening in the world. There are a lot more topics to be covered. Bhandarkar has brought about a lot of sameness in this movie. We have all seen it in the past.
There is a definitely some punch value in ‘Heroine’. If you have not seen Page 3 or fashion then you would surely like the concept and the way it is presented. There are good chances that you might get zapped.

Kareena has done a mind boggling job. This has been by far the most impactful performance of the year!! Arjun rampal and randeep hooda have been wasted. Their roles could have been much better. The art direction and sound effects has been terrific. All in all, I feel Bhandarkar could have done much better with the storyline. Repetitive plots and abrupt ending without any realistic message doesn’t really appeal you.

You just can’t have movies that always end like documentary films and keep you thinking. I was not too excited with the ending especially when it comes so late in the night.

Bring on something new that will really revitalise people. Get some real quality message. I am a great admirer of Bhandarkar’s work. It has been an overdose of media and entertainment world now. He must bring on something over and above these topics, something that will realistically convey a powerful message and charge up his fans.
