Even his cinema career was not shown in a detailed manner.

Also his marriage details were not shown. Portions of Sanjay Dutt being a womanizer is not explored that clearly. His work at the edit table is also a key factor for the movie’s steady pace.ĭepartments like art direction, hair-styling, costume designers and make-up men deserve a pat on their backs for doing an appropriate job by realizing what the movie actually requires. Director Rajkumar Hirani himself edited the movie, so he has got a better understanding of the flow. Ravi Varman’s camera work is lovely and the team effort looks fantabulous with choice of colors, lighting, etc. Background score is great, compositions seems to have proper planning with respect to the situations. Songs are decent, but could have been a lot better considering the film has plenty of scope for music. Dia Mirza who is cast as Sanjay Dutt’s wife has less depth in character and doesn’t impress much.

They score well within the given limited space. The emotional sequences of these two with Dutt leads to tears.Īnushka Sharma, Sonam Kapoor, Manisha Koirala and Jim Sarbh have crucial roles to play. Vicky Kaushal catches the eye with quality acting and a matured truthful friend for Sanju. Paresh Rawal played as Sanjay’s father has provided a rocking performance and his characterization is splendid as well. His dialogue delivery, walking style, respective eyebrow shape are all significant. He has literally lived as Sanjay Dutt in every possible frame. Ranbir Kapoor has delivered his career best performance. Hats-off to the writers for incorporating all the necessary factors that would be tailor-made for creating a wonderful biopic. There is plenty of talking, mainly explanations in the form of sensible and to-the-point dialogues. Screenplay is engaging till breakpoint, takes an uplift after that and becomes highly gripping throughout the later half. Script has enough potential to stay connected with the hearts of the viewers. Direction is merely perfect and the way Hirani has layered this life story makes it a memorable outing.
