Maharaj: L'ordre menacé

The film was suddenly shown without any marketing for it, just some news about the participation of Junaid Khan, son of the star Aamir Khan, in the film, in addition to the battle between the film makers and the courts.

The film, from my point of view, is a Bollywood film with all the elements of enjoyable home viewing, but I was I hope that the film tends to narrate history and events in more depth, without songs, performances, and melodramatic dialogues.

The scenery and sets, the costumes and music, the cinematography and the direction, are all good factors in this film.

The acting is very good and a successful start for Junaid Khan, and I hope to see his upcoming works. The film is worth watching, but I expected it to be stronger than what I saw.

I watched the movie 'Maharaj', it talks about a very old ritual called "Charan Seva" which is actually very unhuman and we are surprised to know that ritual still exists in different ways.

When some rituals who made by human become religion then majority of devotees accept and follow. Its very difficult to raise our voice against that types of unhuman activities.

How simple man named 'Karsan Dass' raised his voice against?

How to expose and deal with very old unhumnan ritual when all accepted already?

How to hold self believe when every one against with him?

This type of movie we require because some bad rituals still exists in every religion. So don't think that is only one religion problem.

All the department of movie like story, screenplay, Direction, acting are decent and yes because this is first movie of Amir Khan's son Junaid Khan so people's special eyes on this movie too.

I wasn't expecting much from the movie but thought of giving it a watch and honestly it ended up exceeding my expectations. From the cinematography to the dialogues everything was exceptional. Also I found junaid khan's performance so natural and impressive since this was his debut movie and he absolutely nailed it!! Hope that he gets to play more amazing roles in future as he seems like the only nepo kid who's trying to make his name by his hard work and not through PR. Sharvari was a treat to watch as well.

This movie not only shows the illicit acts that people used to practice under the guise of religion but also highlights the issues women face to this day. Recommended!

Any who crosses the dignity n sanctity of Vedic injunctions for ulterior selfish motives misusing n misguiding needs to be taught a lesson. That's the theme of the movie. Story revolves around a true historical court case of 1862 in Bombay portraying the fight between a self claimed saint n a social reformer. A socially highly relevant film with an amazing sets, cast n execution. Storytelling has been powerful. Definitely worth a watch. Available on Netflix. My ratings 7/10!

After a court case and a string of controversies, the movie dropped on Netflix with minimal promotion. It is a story inspired by true incidents and a case that was widely discussed.

Based on the 2013 Gujarati novel by Saurabh Shah, Karan P. Malhotra's film presents a dramatized account of the landmark 1862 Maharaj libel case. Maharaj filed a defamation case against social reformer and journalist Karsandas Mulji, who exposed his sexual predations disguised as acts of faith.

The story could have been written better. Nevertheless, it keeps you engrossed throughout the narrative. It sets the premise, establishes the characters, and helps you understand the public's blind faith in a godman. The courtroom drama should have been exciting and nail-biting, but with excessive cinematic liberties, it feels highly unrealistic, and the climax takes away the punch it could have delivered.

Set in 1960, the production value is top-notch, making the story highly believable. However, the movie lacks the emotional depth it was supposed to create, failing to make you root for any character. The songs are average and forgettable.

Junaid Khan, son of Aamir Khan, debuts with this movie and was the worst choice for such a strong character. He maintains a single expression throughout the film. On the other hand, Jaideep Ahlawat as Maharaj steals the show. His acting prowess and physical transformation are remarkable, and his calm demeanor makes him both menacing and evil. Shalini Pandey is decent, and surprisingly, Sharvari Wagh, a recent favorite of YRF, has done well, nailing the Gujarati accent.

The film had so much potential with a better screenplay and a stronger lead, but the opportunity is lost. Watch it to learn about the real-life heroes of our country; otherwise, it is just a half-baked work. #pranureviews #Maharaj #MaharajReview.
