Apurva

The trailer looked really nice. So, I decided to watch this movie. After completing this movie, I am numb. Meaning, I am neither happy, nor angry. The movie story went straightforward. We already knew what was going to happen to the main character as it was already shown in the trailer. I just wanted to see the way the character would do that. The writing was really bad. However, it will keep you engaged for most parts. The ending was incomplete. The writer didn't told us about the aftermath of the incident after the lead character returns. Like, they didn't revealed anything about the goons, no actions were taken against the people who hired them, or they couldn't take the actions, in the story of the movie, none of that was mentioned. So, this is an incomplete movie and I felt numb after watching that. However, I'm a fan of Rajpal Yadav and he did really well. One of the guy in the movie with the glasses and beard, the final villain also did great performance. So, that it, 6 out of 10.

With nothing new to offer this thriller is purely depends upon the screenplay that Keeps u going at a study place... Nikhil had been backed up with pretty good technical team where camera work is a major asset that captures the soul of raw & rustic plains of northern parts of India (Chambal),while the lighting during the night shots are a pleasant view to watch out... Tara sutaria might not be the best of her career but does justify to the role undoubtedly... Abhishek and Rajpal does a fantabulous job of typical freaks and are unpredictable with their wilder behaviour.... Overall a good popcorn movie to passout.

This was indeed a surprise package. I was expecting a shoddily done half baked crime thriller movie which sort of has been the 'speciality' of Disney HotStar in recent times. But luckily this wasn't the case with Apurva. First of all, the cinematography of the movie is top notch. It has been shot on real locations and the scenes are brilliantly shot. Even the BGM is good, it's not overdone.

But the main reason why this was such a good watch was because of the three menacing characters played by Abhishek Banerjee, Sumit Gulati and of course Rajpal Yadav as 'Jugnoo'. They ooze terror throughout the movie. It was great to see Rajpal Yadav doing a dark and negative role and he aced it. He's such a versatile actor. Also the movie keeps you on the edge of the seat throughout but the story and the plot is similar to NH10 starring Anushka Sharma.

Some of the negative aspects are continuity issues in some place, the actors not speaking in the chambal accent and few stretched scenes here and there.

Overall a good watch. Highly recommended.

Apurva is a senseless film that hardly merits a review. It follows the clichéd formula of a predictable masala movie, with absurd plot elements. The protagonist, Tara Sutaria, effortlessly dispatching kidnappers one by one, reappearing mysteriously to lure and kill them, defies all logic. Another character's kidnapping serves only as a device for the protagonist to use a cellphone. Except for Rajpal Yadav's acting, the performances were mediocre. This movie is best avoided; I grew bored within 15 minutes, resorting to fast-forwarding to reach the end! Those who consider this as a good thriller should watch any of the 'Crime Patrol' episodes on Sony, a much better option to kill time.

A crime thriller with story revolving around a survival drama of a girl n similar to NH10 movie but NH10 was very intense than this. But definitely worth a watch for it being a winning story. That struggle of a very ordinary girl to escape by withholding her composure in that horrifying situation is inspiring. It's not dragged unnecessarily, short n crisp with last 30 minutes with nail baiting scenes. Actors have performed quite well. But screenplay could have been even more intense n impactful. Available on Disney Hotstar. My ratings 6/10!
