Salaar part 1 ceasefire movie review: Expectations on Prabhas increased with ‘Baahubali’. However, that level of success did not come. Prabhas’ film with Prashanth Neel, the director of Kejief, is expected to be a good action film, and the fans are hoping that another hit will be confirmed for the rebel star. And how was the movie?
Salaar Movie Story:
Adya (Shruti Haasan) comes to India without knowing her father. As she is threatened by Khansar’s men, she calls Bilal (Maim Gopi) for protection. Following the instructions of Deva (Prabhas)… he carefully takes Adya to a remote village in Assam, to him.
While Deva works in the coal mines… his mother (Eswari Rao) teaches children in the village. If you see a plastic knife in your son’s hand, you will be very worried. Why does she behave like that? What happened seven years ago? After Khansar Karta (ie king) Raja Mannar (Jagapathi Babu) in a war between some who had an eye on his chair… What did Deva do who stood by his childhood friend Varadaraja Mannar (Prithviraj Sukumaran), the son of Raja Mannar’s second wife? is a movie.
Salaar Movie Analysis:
‘KGF’ is what the audience remembers first… heroism rather than story! Elevations given by Prashant Neel to Hero! They were liked by the masses. That heroism is also the reason for the collection of hundreds of crores! But… ‘KGF’ has a good story underlying it, especially the love of a younger mother. Coming to ‘Salar‘… that heroism was not missed. But, the story could be a lot better.
What is in ‘Salar’? If you see that… ‘Heroism! Hero Elevations! That’s it’ can be said briefly and without thinking. Why should I say that… Prashant Neel did not lack for Prabha’s cut & personality. Mass moments of fans whistling were given in full. But, disappointed in story & narration. Amid huge action scenes and elevations, the story becomes short.
Did you change ‘Ugram’ to ‘Salaar’? Or is this a new story? Apart from that… ‘Kejiuf’ was seen by all language audiences more than ‘Ugram’. If you watch the second half of ‘Salaar’, you will see a lot of similarities between ‘Kejiuf’ and this movie. Even though the characters are new… there are many similarities in the story and stories.
The girl who comes to India is finally safe. If you look at that calculation… the beginning and the end of the story are enough. But, the bloodshed shown in the middle did not put a real end to the violence. Hidden for the second part. Especially the war that the hero does not for himself, but for a friend! Let’s see how many people like it.
A father builds an impregnable fortress to prevent the outside world from coming in, the enemies keep an eye on the father’s position along with his sons, try their best, and someone who comes from outside destroys all of them. But… the climax twist separates the movie from ‘Kjieff’. Otherwise, it was like saying same to same.
Although there are no complaints about the first half of ‘Salar’… those elevations will entertain the fans and the audience. Why would a mother act like that for her son? Let’s settle that we will know later. After the interval, the action is again highlighted but not the story. Prashant Neel did not direct the emotions to connect. One gets the idea that shortening the length would be better. The songs are not up to expectations. Background music is ok. The camera work, editing, and production values are of the ‘KJ’ type.
Salaar Movie Actors Performance:
Cut out the content! Seeing the rebel star Prabhas in ‘Salaar’ reminds us of that word. Enough of that cutout, it’s been a long time since such content was posted. Heroism and those hero elevations were worked out as Prabhas was cut out. His image is believable. Prabhas acted as Avalis in action sequences. Those fights didn’t seem too hard to do. Prabhas looks good.
After Prabhas, Ishwari Rao and Prithviraj Sukumaran will be highlighted. Both of them were impressed with their performance. Ishwari Rao has shown well the pain and love of a mother for her younger child. Shruti Haasan’s role is limited. But, they looked sober. Maim Gopi, Jagapathi Babu, Bobby Simha, Shriya Reddy, Ramachandra Raju, John Vijay, Brahmaji, MS Chaudhary, Tinu Anand and others have acted to the extent of their roles.
The bottom line is: ‘Salaar’ has fewer action sequences and less heroism than Prabhas cut out. Fights that give goosebumps to fans are filmed by Prashant Neel. Prabhas & Action… That combination alone is pleasing in the movie. Go to the theaters with as few expectations as possible on the story. Otherwise, you will be disappointed. This is a movie that will be liked by Prabhas fans and the masses.
