Sanju Mid-Movie Review: Ranbir Kapoor plays Sanjay Dutt to perfection
You could see Sanju as an image cleansing exercise or the true story, but as a film it is enticing, riveting and ever so gripping.
Ranbir Kapoor steps into the shoes of Sanjay Dutt in his biopic, aptly titled Sanju. The movie is directed by Rajkumar Hirani and also stars an eclectic cast comprising of Paresh Rawal, Manisha Koirala, Dia Mirza, Sonam Kapoor, Anushka Sharma, Vicky Kaushal, Boman Irani, Jim Sarbh and Karishma Tanna.
The highly anticipated movie releases today and here's a quick review of the first half of Sanju:
How do you put together a glorious or rather inglorious life in two hours? As Rajkumar Hirani and his writer collaborator Abhijat Joshi create this narrative, you are awestruck. Ranbir Kapoor plays him to perfection - the many shades of it - the drug addict, the alcoholic, the sex maniac but mostly the human side of a man who has lived in the limelight. But beneath the press hulabuloo and headlines, is a soft, kind man, misunderstood, misguided and misrepresented.
You could see this as an image cleansing exercise or the true story, but as a film it is enticing, riveting and ever so gripping.
