Star performance
Randeep Hooda's spectacular performance is intense and compelling. His physical transformation and portrayal bring depth and life into Sarvarkar's character.
Ankita Lokhande and Amit Sial as supporting lead actors with strong performances.
As Randeep Hooda also makes his director debut, Hooda does deep and thorough research on Sarvarkar's life events. But sometimes the film sequences look disoriented.
Analysis
The film's storytelling is captivating and enthralling, bringing into the world of Savarkar and evoking a sense of patriotism, but the film's direction and narration should be criticised for misinterpreting the history. The film gives heavenly importance to Sarvarkar's contributions that come at the expense of other historical figures not properly depicting other figures, showing a one-sided narrative that sparked deep debate among audience and historians. The film does not present a balanced view of the contributions Sarvakar made during India's struggle for freedom. The film portrays Gandhi's character as a politically correct yet somewhat ineffective leader compared to Savarkar in the film. Hooda's performance as an actor and as a writer with detailing and thorough research are well appreciated. Many scenes give a shiver in the body like kala pani Jail scenes. The film is hagiography and historical drama losing its focus without a strong foundation.

Verdict
Swatantrya Veer Savarkar is an informative and inspiring movie that maintains the legacy of Vinayak Damodar Savarkar. Randeep Hooda’s performance in the film is mind-blowing and one of the strongest assets of the film. The acting is very impressive but the film direction failed to bring a balanced view without misinterpreting history. It's a good watch for people who are history lovers and like patriotic films.
