Star cast : Rani Mukerji, Tahir Raj Bhasin
Director : Pradeep Sarkar
The story gives you a lot of reasons to celebrate commercial cinema. Though I won’t agree that it is a well written intelligent film, but it is a film that devotes itself exclusively to a subject without falling prey to diversions. Stretching commercial cinema beyond the contours of Singham and Dabangg Pandey, Rani retains the realism of the story delivering the mesmeric action which has the look and feel of believability in it.
Even when the climax satisfies, I can’t call it a wholesome one. It is half baked attempt at making a clever point. The last shot Rani washing her face, exclaiming how every woman who lives in a country like India where men gaze at them with hawk like lust, must bring out the Mardaani in her, is worth a million bucks. But there is something critical missing from the residual feeling that the story must leave by. Blame it on the film’s writing, that cannot leave aside the pedigree of Bollywood thinking to create a movie that can rise above the usual, plain, unimaginative canvas that lacks basic creativity.
