SAVARKAR THE MOVIE – HINDI – random observations
I saw Randeep Huda’s Savarkar yesterday 😎 with my two nephews. All three of us liked the movie, so even Genext also enjoyed it.
There are so many facts generally not known about him and misleading controversies purposely floated around him. Also many historically facts have been swept off the table or brushed under the carpet, which are highlighted in the movie, so it does a great job is setting the narrative right.
SO I THINK ITS A MUST SEE.
However I find the movie inadequate in many aspects, the budget constraints are obvious,
off course the vastness of Savarkar thoughts is improbable to be captured in a 3 hr film, but still it does a decent job at it.
The striking lacuna’s are:
- The beginning feels like a documentary or unconnected pieces, as there is no story/narrative established, for worst part which must be deleted I will come back to it later (#10)
- I wish RH had got at least the “Sagara pran Talmalala” in a proper marathi accent it was jarring.
- Kamala the Epic Poem is not even mentioned, although its creation is shown and referred to but wont be noticed by the ones who are not aware what “Kamala” is
- Many will find the reality of MKG unpalatable but there is nothing beyond facts albeit the presentation is stark.
- Savarkar’s start of eating Non-Veg scene is obscurely covered or may be I was distracted
- Many historical events/incidents are covered in English Sub title which can be easily be missed, could have tried a voice over.
- How VDS torture in Andaman’s reached press is not clear.
- The Monologue on who is a Hindu could have been slowed down and prolonged , RH could have toned down his acting a bit, but I guess masses get what they wanted out of it.
- I don’t find any historical records of Bhagat Singh having travelled to Ratnagiri to meet VDS, however the scene is what could have been, shown as what happened.
- Worst & inaccurate depiction of Rand during his Plague control efforts is shown to be raping women which is absolutely a falsehood, should have been avoided, still Must be deleted from future shows.
I strongly recommend for all to watch the movie to improve our own understanding of our history, of course pseudo seculars will find the movie offensive as it disrupts the well set agenda till date.
TO PROVE ME WRONG GO AND JUST SEE THE MOVIE.
PS: I saw Dune2 and paid ₹1,500/ head in Jio Drive , saw Savarkar in Jio Plaz Insignia a far superior auditorium with free water , blanket, pillows on the recliners at just ₹500/ head. So obvious doubt, is some one or more specifically Neeta Ambani subsidizing the Movie ??????
