Dangal Movie review
Director: Nitesh Tiwari
Starcast: Aamir Khan, Sakshi Tanwar, Fatima Sana Sheikh, Sanya Malhotra
Dangal is an inspiring story of Mahavir Singh Phoghat (Aamir Khan), a national level wrestler who trains his daughters in wrestling. They break the long-held stereotypes of the sport being only for men. How the father faces all hardships, coaches the girls and preps them for international games forms the rest of the story.
Thumbs up:
• Once again, Aamir Khan has proved that he can slip into any character and be so incredibly convincing that we forget we are seeing 'Aamir Khan' on screen. He tops it all with his dialogues, physical appearance and the intense emotions.
• The young girls who play his daughters (Fatima Sana Sheikh & Sanya Malhotra) have given impressive debut performances.
• The film feels very real and genuine in all aspects. Despite this, the commercial elements are intact making the film a complete entertainer.
• Director Nitesh has rightly portrayed subjects of patriarchy, gender stereotypes and chauvinism which still widely exist in our country.
Thumbs down:
• At some moments, we felt the film could have been tighter.
VERDICT:
Dangal is a masterpiece that you should not miss!
