Satyagraha : Painful and paralyzing boredom.

The Satyagraha is the agonizing experience in every aspect of the film. The law of change suggests something should have been good in the movie but Prakash Zha beats the law and makes a movie which is worst in all departments except few good scenes in patches.

Firstly, Script is developed from bigger than life “Anna national movement” and director made it as district story. So national issue was made a district issue and there starts the failure. Never minimize the impact of reality that was truth of million Indians. So bad start to the script.

Another part is boring and hellish dialogues. In the film someone asks : What is future of India and Ajay Devgan gives most pathetic and disappointing answer giving an example of BPO worker.!

The sets of the film are poor in the first half and few of them copied as it is from “Anna movement in the end.” Film raises all important points and communicates to audience using all wrong ways. The Minister acts as “Bollywood Villan” and story looks unbelievable. Why every character in Zha’s film want to give a speech? Well, don’t understand and it did not helped this movie.

Film has actors like Amitabh Bachchan and Ajay Devgan, Kareena Kapoor and acting skills have been wasted in the absence of good script. Film should have made us angry at our system but it neither entertains nor disappoints and finally audience starts laughing at poor drama.

The movie has no magic, no feeling for character, nothing for us to care about. I have tried to search something good in movie but except few scenes in the movie, it is a failed attempt.
