Super 30 Movie Review

Is education only limited for those who can afford it or can the Industrialists in our country go one step ahead for sponsoring and contributing towards education for those who are under privileged?

Anand Kumar (Hrithik Roshan) is the elder son of a poor and humble postman. He is brilliant in Mathematics and gets an admission letter for joining Cambridge University, after submission of a unique Mathematics Solution Paper. Is he able to avail this opportunity of studying in Cambridge? Is he able to get a sponsor or scholarship for this, once in a life time opportunity? Or does he opt to work for a very successful and Top Coaching Institute in Patna which trains students from an affluent background for IIT entrance examinations?

The story is excellent and the climax is jaw dropping.

The movie has heartfelt and inspiring moments that touch our chords. Direction by Vikas Behl is good after his much loved Queen.

Hrithik Roshan is pitch-perfect and superb as Anand Kumar. Nandish Singh does a fine job in his debut movie as his younger brother. Mrinal Thakur is good in a brief role. Pankaj Tripathi shines as an unscrupulous politician and one who also manages to tickle our funny bones. Aditya Srivastava is brilliant as the evil Lallan Singh. A special mention also for the performances of the students. The performance of all lifts the entire movie.

Music is engaging with tracks like Jugraafiya and Paisa among others.

An inspirational movie for everyone giving a message that even without access to proper education, one can rise and shine in their respective field.

Article 15 Movie Review

Movie is based on Article 15 of the Indian Constitution which prohibits caste discrimination. 

It is set against the backdrop of real life events including the horrific Badayun Case of 2014 in Uttar Pradesh. 

Ayan Ranjan (Aayushmann Khurrana) IPS Officer takes charge of Lalganj, a district  notorious for crime on caste discrimination. He is greeted by his fellow officers Bhramadatt Singh (Manoj Pahwa) and Jatav (Kumud Mishra). Incidents involving caste discrimination are common in the region. One incident which catches his attention is the case of 3 missing village teenage girls. 

You will have to watch the movie to know more about the case of missing girls. 

Movie is an edge of the seat gripping thriller. Direction by Anubhav Sinha is by far his best after the great Mulk. Editing is crisp. Background score is good.

Aayushmann Khurana is terrific as the feisty police officer. Kumud Mishra as the fellow officer is fantastic. Manoj Pahwa is superb as the notorious and corrupt police officer. Mohammed Zeeshan Aayuub in his brief role is fabulous. Sayani Gupta has done a great job. Other movie characters are good too. 

Don't miss it. 
****.5 stars
