      Inspectar velankar- a definite role for Om Puri

      Directed by Govind Nihalani, this is definite cop film of Indian cinema. May be the first one which portrayed the stark reality of corruption in the police force & politics with no holds barred & how it effects on a young cop. A man forced to join a career of a cop by his cop father. Agreed that we grew up watching lot of good cop/bad cop Hindi films but this is different. Today's generation, which grown up watching dark & realistic films like- 'Satya', 'Company' may be consider it inferior product in comparison but look at the time of its making. The film was made absolutely off beat tone in the time when people didn't pay much attention to such kind of cinema & yet it becomes a most sought after cop film in class & mass audience when it released. For Om Puri its first breakthrough in mainstream Hindi cinema & he delivered a class performance as Inspector Velankar. Its more than cop character, he internalized a lot which is something original in acting. Watch his scenes with his father whom he hates & Smita whom he loves. Smita Patil maintained the dignity of her character to the expected level. My God what a natural expressions she carried!!! Shafi Inamdar was truly a discovery for me & he's a brilliant character actor if given a chance & here in some of the scenes he outsmarted even Om. The movie is also a debut of a promising villain on Indian screen- Sadashiv Amrapurkar as 'Rama Shetty'. It's another story that he didn't get such a meaty role & almost forgotten today as one of the loud villain of Dharmendra's B grade action films. Watch the scene where Om 1st time becomes a rebel for his father (played by Amrish Puri) & next both are sharing wine together. How inner truth started revealing for both the character with confronting feelings of love & hate for each other. Two faces of Indian Police Force- Masculinity & Impotency and in between lies- half truth (ardh satya)…Kudos to Nihalani's touch. The film won 2 National Awards as Best Hindi Feature Film & Best Actor- Om Puri & 3 Filmfare Awards in Best Film, Best Director & Best Supporting Actor Categories.

      Recommended to all who are interested in nostalgia of serious Hindi films.

      Half-Truth and All Lies

      While Govind Nihalani's 'Ardh Satya' may not be the only movie of its kind (a decent cop trying to survive the corrupt system within the police force), its rawness, insight, grit and Nihalani's minimal approach in making the film make this film something outstanding. There have been numerous movies made since that attempt to tackle the very issues 'Ardh Satya' presents but hardly any of them (with a few exceptions like E. Niwas's 'Shool') have been able to match up to this classic that has stood the test of time. Themes like alcoholism, corruption, deceptions and power play are dealt with sensibly.

      The subtlety in art direction, dialogue and acting, toned down score is very effective. Anant's despair and helplessness in a corrupt world where power trumps, his choice of joining the academy and his resentment towards his father are easy to relate to. His and Jyotsna's love story is a treat to watch and a welcome angle to the film.

      'Ardh Satya' showcases Om Puri's acting as he delivers a transcendent performance. He captures Anant's nuances with conviction and appears very natural on screen. Amrish Puri, Shafi Inamdar and Naseeruddin Shah (in a small role) are superb. Smita Patil deserves special mention. How does one play an ordinary character so extraordinarily? Watch Ms. Patil in this for an answer. Her performance is natural to the core. She doesn't try to overshadow anyone nor is it one of those 'award-winning' roles but Smita Patil's presence beautifully balances the film. Her warmth, subtle charm, sincerity and quiet attentiveness complement 'Ardh Satya'.

      I found the ending a little predictable but this is mostly because I have watched so many movies of this kind that have come out since (but pale in comparison). Yet, it's a strong ending and I can't think of a better one.

      Tries hard to rise above the poem

      Any story comprises a premise, characters and conflict. Characters plotting their own play promises triumph, and a militant character readily lends oneself to this. Ardh Satya's premise is summarized by the poem of the same name scripted by Dilip Chitre. The line goes - "ek palde mein napunsaktha, doosre palde mein paurush, aur teek tarazu ke kaante par, ardh satya ?". A rough translation - "The delicate balance of right & wrong ( commonly seen on the busts of blind justice in the courts ) has powerlessness on one plate and prowess on another. Is the needle on the center a half-truth ? "

      The poem is recited midway in the film by Smita Patil to Om Puri at a resturant. It makes a deep impact on the protagonist & lays the foundation for much of the later events that follow. At the end of the film, Om Puri ends up in exactly the same situation described so aptly in the poem.

      The film tries mighty hard to do a one-up on the poem. However, Chitre's words are too powerful, and at best, the film matches up to the poem in every aspect.

      HALF TRUTH IS MORE SCARIER THAN A LIE

      Govind Nihalani's directorial venture of Vijay Tendulkar's novel is brilliant. Om Puri plays an inspector Velankar who is forced to protect underworld don rama shetty, played brilliantly by sadahiv amrapurkar. This is Govind Nihlan's Most talked about movie. This is a very good and a classic film. Smita Patil plays the female lead opposite Om Puri. Naseeruddin Shah is brilliant in a cameo role. Although Sadashiv Amrapurkar has only 4 scenes in the movie he dominates the movie. This was Sadashiv Amrapurkars acting debut.Om Puri won a national award for this film for the best actor. Filmfare award winner for Best Film,Story,Supporting Actor(Sadashiv Amrapurkar).

      Real indian cinema

      This movie is so powerful. Initially i thaught this is a regular cop cinema but the treatment given to this cinema is really good. I was blown away by acting of all characters. Om Puri performed extremely well in this movie and he looks like live volcano ready to erupt. His acting, body language is outstanding in this movie. Sadashiva amrapurkar's performance was special surprise. Most people don't like art/parallel cinema Just because they think those are slow and boring but ardha Satya is hidden gem. Watch this to know original Indian cinema. Amarish puri, Smita Patil and other actors did really well in this movie.
