Bharat

A true review of a Salman Khan movie by an Akkian. I didn't expect this much from this movie which has mixed negative inclined reviews. Of course, I didn't think of going to watch it in theatre. After doing a survey on Twitter that if I should watch this movie or not, I got positive reponse. It motivated me, but didn't make me expect much from it. All their "no spoiler reviews" were mostly correct. Salman Khan, unlike few of his last films since 2017, has done well in this movie. Katrina Kaif was wonderful, one of her best performances yet again. But wait, if truth be told, Disha Patani's 10 minute role outdid her. She is so hot and beautiful! Back to Bharat, movie starts very slow. Picks up slow and moves slowly until till the end we see the complete picture. It's very emotional. The climax makes me remember some other movies like pk. Yes, it's that good, but could never be of pk level. The movie is in pieces, some are boring, some are interesting, nonetheless all are slow. But it has emotions, it has a journey and it becomes wonderful towards the end. I liked it. I rate it 7/10. A fact for you - Bharat movie has the most extras in a movie ever made in the history of Bollywood. That means the people at the background plus everyone on screen. They are in thousands! I can't say it as a must watch, it's too lengthy, but it won't disappoint many. Some roles like Tabu, Disha Patani, Nora Fatehi, Sunil Grover and ever Katrina's were awesome!
