Heropanti

All right guys & gals...Disclaimer : If you are the serious types, going to a movie theater or even downloading a movie from the internet which is again serious or has a lot of drama or too much romance or even too much of violence; Heropanti is not for you. Sabbir Khan (Director) has recreated a sort or late 80s-early 90s era in his 2nd directorial venture. His earlier movie; Kambhakkt Ishq was total CRAP. But Heropanti is a fantastic improvement. Direction, cinematography, choreography, music everything is good. This movie is a TTP {TOTAL TIME PASS} movie. When you enter the movie hall, you should leave behind all your worries of your life, go in with a clear mind & do not pay too much attention to small details. This movie has a lot to offer to the diversified audience. Action, Romance, Drama, Dance, Emotional Moments, Fantastic Music & a very attractive lead pair. This movie does have some sexist jokes which should be taken in a light manner as it is NOT gross or vulgar in any way. Plot is good, set in modern day Haryana. Although it is copy of the Telugu Film "PARUGU" (Veerta: The Power). See it for the amazing stunts done by Tiger Shroff, the utterly gorgeous Kriti Sanon, Prakash Raj in a different look than his usual gangster character. Emotions are also portrayed beautifully by Prakash Raj & Tiger Shroff. Overall, its a Bollywood entertainer with a fresh cast & good content. Go for it!!

Heropanti is a routine good vs evil flick devoid of story and direction. What works is commendable performances and well-choreographed action stunts.

As Babloo ( Tiger Shroff) support his friend who escapes with daughter of local mafia Prakash Raj, he falls in love with the younger daughter Dimpy ( Kirti Sannon) Babloo must fight to protect his friend and at the same time love of his life,Dimpy.

Directed by Sabir Khan, whose previous work includes disastrous Kambakth Isqh, Heropanti is a typical love story we have seen on Indian screen ample number of times. The screenplay is poor with immature romantic track causing hindrance to the movement of the film. The director had made sure to make a masala potboiler for front- benchers and creates a senseless caper. The whistle tone ( originated from the HERO starring Jackie Shroff) irritates as it is repeated innumerable times the moment Tiger Shroff comes on-screen. Cinematography is eye-catching. Editing could have been better. However , action sequences played by Tiger Shroff , dialogues with witty one-liners are good. Hats off to Tiger for executing the near- to-perfection action scenes without any cables and body double. The hard-work clearly pays off and it is pleasure to watch the deadly stunts. The actor gives good one-liners with serious tone of his voice. He should probably work on his looks to have conventional hero attitude. Kirti Sanon shows ample promises and should go a long way.

Overall , if you are longing for some great action moves, Heropanti is a one-time watch. Otherwise , you might want to skip it. Average 2.5/5

For direction I just want to reframe the tag line of this film as "Direction- Kisi Ko Aati Nahi, Kisi Ko Milti Nahi" . Director just fails to add anything extra from his side to enhance the film. Even lots of places, for the sake of surprise he gives shock to audience. Story is very routine, screenplay is stale and dialogues are just OK. They show capital of India, Delhi just like a remote village. I mean to say no law and order, goons moving in open jeep!!! Why they prefer to choose Delhi when it could have been any place. Main male lead behaves like he does not have mind at all, when ever he wants to fight , he fights otherwise he surrenders or even plans to run away!!! Love scenes between the lead pair do not touch at all. This is the biggest setback of this action romantic film. Prakash Raj is an amazing actor but due to inappropriate visual support and routine dialogues his emotional scenes fall flat even after his mind blowing performance. Sunil Grover, famous as Gutthi comes in a scene and pushes you to laugh but this scene was intended to be emotional rather than funny. Performance wise Tiger Shroff as Bablu fights and dances impressively but he is just fine in other scenes. Kirti Sanon as Dimpy is OK. Samar Jay singh as Bhuppi makes his presence felt. Music by Sajid –Wajis is good. Choreography of song Whistle Baja is out standing.

A remake of the 2008 Telugu film Parugu, 'Heropanti' is A Good Entertainer, that introduces two new-faces, Veteran Actor Jackie Shroff's Son Tiger & Kriti Sanon. And luckily, the new-comers pack a punch!

'Heropanti' Synopsis: When Renu (Sandeepa Dhar) runs away with her lover, her father Chaudhary (Prakash Raj) launches a manhunt to track them down and eliminate them. A livid Chaudhary soon discovers that Bablu (Tiger Shroff) is the man who has assisted the couple to elope & who also happens to be his daughter's lover's friend.

'Heropanti' is unabashedly aimed at the masses. Its an out-and-out commercial masala film, that offers everything that will be loved by the aam-junta. In short, a paisa-vasool entertainer, that aims for nothing else, but to entertain its viewer.

The Screenplay is interesting & well-paced, but there are a few shortcomings. While the first-hour moves with force, the second-hour is comparatively slow. The culmination, especially, is prolonged & doesn't leave much of an impact. Even the running-time for that matter of fact, could've been trimmed by at least 20-minutes. 146-Minutes seems a bit too long!

Sabir Khan has directed the film well. Cinematography is picture-perfect. Editing is fair. Action-Sequences/Stunts are tremendous! Music by Sajid-Wajid & Manj Musik, is fabulous.

Performance-Wise: Tiger makes an impressive debut. He's superb when it comes to doing action & dance. His impeccable flexibility & grace are impossible to ignore. However, his performance has a few rough edges. He certainly needs to work on his acting skills. But for a debut-performance, he shows potential. Kriti Sanon, also makes an impressive debut. She looks gorgeous & delivers a highly confident performance. Also, the on-screen paring of Tiger & Kriti, is exciting. Prakash Raj is first-rate. His emotional outburst in the second-hour, is brilliant. Sandeepa Dahr leaves a mark. Vikram Singh is effective in a brief role.

On the whole, 'Heropanti' works & welcomes two talented newbies - Tiger Shroff & Kirti Sanon.

With enough criticism written, I would like to rub some more salt before you dare to even watch this one......This is Indian film industry's tradition that film fraternity writes and says only good things about any new entrant from their Khaandan, this time they are also carrying on this legacy and you can find that every critic and film personality is giving this more "3-4 stars" out of five. All I can say most of them have sold their soul and not only their profession, after 5 star to Kkrish-3 incident I have completely lost my faith.

OK now lets talk about the movie, Everything about this movie was wrong the script, screenplay, the main actor and actresses except the song and Prakash Raj. They claim that movie's budget is Rs 35 Cr, well I don't see anything in the movie where they have actually invested as whole star-cast is fresh and I don't think if they charge crores, but you can guess that most of the fund was reserved for marketing and Critics fees.

Now come to the story, then this is another South Indian Movie with heavy forgettable "Sadak Chaap" dialogue and running, jumping with non-sense fight scenes.

We all know about weird look of Tiger Shroff, but it was disappointing to know that this chap is really good Gymnast and he may win few Olympic medals for the country but his family is more interested to force him to choose Acting career. This lad is completely emotionless and his expressions are flat, his dialogue delivery does not leave any impact on the audience,I was not expecting a great demonstration of acting skills from him and he even does not surprise us either. Director tried to create a new fusion of Gymnastic Abilities and Music but it's not very convincing or entertaining, Tiger Shroff did as much as 50-60 "flips", his "flips" are the only talent they were trying to show us, whether it was fight or dance scene, "FLIPS" were everywhere, after watching the whole movie they successfully convinced us that he can actually "Flip". And now about Actress, all I can say I may not recognize her if I see her in another movie because there is nothing for her but just to dance with hero and shed tears by using glycerin.

My advice to you is that just watch video songs on the YouTube and you can skip the movie as there is nothing more entertaining than the songs. It's already available for free, no need to spend money.

Please remember that Tiger Shroff can "Flip", Yes! he can actually "Flip", Oh God he "Filped Again", It's really Awesome that he can "flip", OMG how adorable he is flipping again. "THE FLIP"
