Hello Frnds,
My take on recently released movie Sanju based on life of Sanjay Dutt
This movie is sheer dumbness + PR for Sanjay Dutt
He is a dreaded criminal he was arrested under TADA he was saved by Bal Thackeray nd his father
He could have easily helped in averting Mumbai blasts in which around 200 ppl lost life's
Nd here Raju Hirani whitewashed everything
Shame
Rajkumar Hirani has actually written a love letter that says
'Dear Sanju, no matter how hardened a criminal you are, no matter how grave your crimes are, no matter how big a womaniser or drug addict you are/were, I will whitewash all of your crimes. Trust me, I have experience. Ask around, in my last movie I tarnished and misrepresentated an entire religion of 700 million people with another bigot in leading role.
~Yours Truly since Munnabhai days'
Movie is such a hogwash, it's such a eulogy for a criminal that it's unbelievable..
It's certainly not a biopic, it's a 155 min advertising commercial of not a perceived, but proven and prosecuted criminal.
Apart from glaring falsification of facts, movie is shown celebrating a 3rd class lifestyle with such an elan that Richard Attenborough will be ashamed into making a pigmy of Gandhi in front of Sanju...
Hugely one sided communal angle given to everything. His father turned into a social worker and saint. Overtly communal don, while real mafia friends are muted...
The usual things between a father and son, normal exploits of drug addicts, starting level inconveniences of jailed criminals, pathetic acts of completely absent morality and grave irresponsibility towards family, love & friends is shown with melodramatic music and closer face shots, to make them groundbreaking and melancholically like that of Mother India...
Sanjay Dutt was a criminal and there are actually no positives about his life...
And No!!! No claptrap of how great his father was... His father, sister, friends and media, did what they had to, to cover up and give a lease of life to him..
Go on.. drop a tear or two while watching this piece of fiction by love struck Hirani..
But go through these links, which am giving below... Must read and watch...
Move on..
