Movie Review: Dabangg

DabanggCast: Salman Khan, Arbaaz Khan, Sonakshi Sinha, Sonu Sood
Director: Abhinav Kashyap

Gist: Set in Uttar Pradesh, Dabangg is the story of a not-so-corrupt police officer played by Salman Khan and highlights the flaws and loopholes in the system. The film primarily deals with the unlawful practices in the state of Uttar Pradesh.

First of all, this film is a Bollywood Brilliance! Not-so-typical Bollywood, but yes… very entertaining, masaledaar and total paisa wasool! I’m saying ‘not-so-typical’ because this is not like, hero comes, saves the heroine, kills the villain and they lived happily ever after. It’s a bit different, nice story, and again… total entertainment for a weekend! Brilliant acting by the entire cast including the small roles which actually show such importance in the script and story. The big people in these small roles are Vinod Khanna, Dimple Kapadia and Anupam Kher who have added more flavour to this film.

‘Salman Khan was am-aaa-zing’ is an understatement! If you had complaints in the past about Salman’s crazy and weird behavior in his previous films, then here, you will only be wanting more!!! The role of Chulbul Pandey is perfectly tailored to Salman’s style, charisma, physique and mass appeal. He’s just too good in this role opposite the new Indian beauty in town, Sonakshi Sinha. She is so calm and pleasingly beautiful that will not believe she’s Shatrughan Sinha’s daughter!! For me, she’s one of the most beautiful ‘Indian’ lady onscreen ever! Produced by his brother Arbaaz, who also plays his brother onscreen, this film has got everything you need; Super hit dialogues which are gonna stay on in people’s minds, superb guest appearances especially Malaika Arora Khan’s hot and sizzling item number, fantastic music, entertaining story and just the right amount of comedy balanced with fun and action! As a dance enthusiast, this is the first time I can compliment Salman on his monkey moves, because its just meant for Chulbul Pandey!

Everyone from Salman to Malaika to Sonu Sood look amazing in the movie with respect to costumes, style and body. A perfect treat for a weekend and a must watch if you want to have a good time with family and friends. Go watch it in the theatre soon. After you watch it, you will know that Chulbul Pandey is the new Robin-Hood-cum-Chuck-Norris for India!! :D
