Plot

Star Performances

Priyanka Chopra has given a mind-blowing performance, and this film will not disappoint her fans. The way in which she delivers her, dialogues are also praise-worthy. And not to miss the punches she gives to the wrong-doers! She also turns a winner in giving that earnest look of a dedicated cop. Prakash Jha, the director of this film, has endeavored into acting. Prakash Jha has a powerful role, and he is impressive as the man who changes sides (for good) in the latter half. Well, it’s heartening to see a director doing well as an actor.

Analysis

It’s heartening that Bollywood is witnessing a trend where women are given meaty roles. In some films, the women have the lion’s share while in others the women have an equally meaty role as that of the male protagonist. Jai Gangaajal falls under the second category. 
Prakash Jha is one director who touches on the issues of the current political and social system. Jai Gangaajal is also one such film. The movie, which claims to be a sequel to the blockbuster Gangaajal, which was released in 2003, takes a tour between the relationship shared between the cops and the society. 

What’s there?

  • We have got used to seeing such films, but it’s the treatment that works for this film. 
  • Salim-Suleiman has composed music for the movie that has 11 songs. All the songs gel well with the tempo of the film. The audience also won’t expect variety in such types of films and the duo has done a commendable job in providing refreshing music to the film. 
  • Prakash Jha’s screenplay is adroit. 
  • Jha seems to have a profound knowledge of what happens in the evil areas, and that is clear in the movie. 

What’s not there?

You tend to get confused with the way all the social issues are blended in the movie. 

Verdict

It’s nice to see our favorite stars doing heroics on screen…and here it is Lady Priyanka Chopra…watch this movie atleast for her and yes, of course, the actor in Prakash Jha…
