Bullett Raja

Tigmanshu Dhulia is back with a gripping story-line and crisp dialogs that hold your attention throughout the movie.Shots from all famous places in and around Lucknow...from Imambara,Hazratganj,Residency,Airport,High Court to Malihabad and Barabanki jail have been captured. Jimmy Sheirgill is excellent and Saif shines as Raja Mishra.They both give performances worthy of giving them nomination in next year's award functions. Wherein all the actors from Raj Babbar to Gulshan Grover suit in their respective roles, however Mahi Gill looks vulgar and Vidyut Jamwal, with a wooden face has nothing more to showcase except few circus stunts. A special mention for the peppy number Tamanche Pe Disco. You will love the movie for its desi dialects (provided you understand their meaning) and for Saif Ali Khan. Go For It.

was not really expecting much about the story. because it is a spicy movie. but the screenplay should have been much better.. was expecting more good action scene.... but this one not up to point though there is few good action scene. the trailer of the movie let us hope that there will be some very good gun and bullet action, specially by SAIF ALI khan . casting and acting was good. Saif Ali Khan & Jimmy Sheirgill both acted well. Sonakshi Sinha was not really spotlighted on this movie, she has little scope to show her acting capability, though she was not bad in her appearance on screen.

neither boring nor entertaining. overall disappointment. . , .

Dir. Mr. Tingmanshu Dhulia has taken a confused take on this political drama. This is not a film but a project, whether first you decide actors, then some action scenes, some love scenes and a political backdrop to create drama. Eventually no story comes as outcome. Screenplay is predicative besides few scenes. Dialogues by Director himself is very good. Even the opening dialogue of film is very impressive. Film looses logic at most of the places. If, a person thought about another to kill in his home only and the other person has arrived then what is the need to create childish drama, where he eventually kills him through blast? Because another person has few goons with him, so the blast was required and five minutes unnecessary screen time!!? Love between the lead pair is not well established. An I.A.S rank of officer thinks with his body muscles rather than his brain muscles!? He prefers to combat rather than plan, because this actor is good at fight!!! There are lots of things who indicate that role was considered according to actors caliber rather than the flow and requirement of film. A hard core villain pretends to become Radha and Police believe!!! Performance wise Saif Ali Khan is very good. Sonakshi Sinha has not very much scope but she is good. Raj Babber, Gulshan Grover, Jimmy Shergill, Sharat Saxena , Vipin Sharma are OK. Vidyut Jamwal is very good at stunt but not that much good at act. Ravi Kishan is fine. Music is also very average.

Bullet Raja, directed by Tigmanshu Dhulia, is a raw and gritty action thriller set against the backdrop of Uttar Pradesh's criminal underworld. The film stars Saif Ali Khan as the titular character, Raja Mishra, who transforms from a common man into a feared gangster. The movie blends elements of crime, drama, and action, offering an engaging, albeit sometimes uneven, narrative.

Plot Summary Raja Mishra (Saif Ali Khan) is an ordinary man who finds himself embroiled in the world of crime after a chance encounter with Rudra (Jimmy Sheirgill), a seasoned gangster. As Raja gets deeper into the criminal underbelly, he forges a brotherly bond with Rudra, and together they become an unstoppable force. However, their rise to power attracts the ire of corrupt politicians and rival gangs, leading to a series of violent confrontations. Amidst the chaos, Raja's loyalty and love are tested as he navigates the treacherous world of crime.

Performances Saif Ali Khan delivers a charismatic performance as Raja Mishra, bringing a mix of charm, intensity, and rawness to his character. His portrayal of a man caught between his ambitions and moral dilemmas is compelling, making Raja a memorable character.

Jimmy Sheirgill as Rudra provides a strong counterbalance to Saif's character, showcasing a blend of vulnerability and toughness. Their on-screen chemistry and camaraderie add depth to the narrative, making their partnership one of the film's highlights.

Sonakshi Sinha as Mitali, the love interest, does a decent job but her role feels underdeveloped compared to the central narrative. She brings warmth and a touch of romance to the otherwise gritty storyline.

Vidyut Jammwal impresses in a supporting role, adding to the film's action quotient with his martial arts skills and intense screen presence.

Direction and Cinematography Tigmanshu Dhulia's direction brings a raw, rustic feel to Bullet Raja. He effectively captures the essence of Uttar Pradesh's landscape, infusing the film with authenticity. The action sequences are well-choreographed, and Dhulia's storytelling keeps the audience engaged, despite some pacing issues.

The cinematography by P. S. Vinod complements Dhulia's vision, with vibrant shots of the heartland and well-executed action scenes. The use of local settings and realistic portrayal of the criminal underworld add to the film's gritty atmosphere.

Music and Soundtrack The music by Sajid-Wajid and RDB is a mix of energetic tracks and soulful melodies. Songs like "Tamanche Pe Disco" and "Saamne Hai Savera" enhance the narrative, fitting well with the film's tone and setting. The background score effectively heightens the tension during action scenes and emotional moments.

Themes and Impact Bullet Raja delves into themes of loyalty, power, and the blurred lines between right and wrong in the world of crime. The film explores the bond between Raja and Rudra, showcasing how friendship and loyalty can shape one's destiny in the face of adversity.

While the movie succeeds in portraying the gritty realities of the criminal underworld, it sometimes falters in maintaining a consistent tone. The narrative occasionally veers into predictable territory, but the strong performances and action sequences keep the audience invested.

Conclusion Bullet Raja is a gritty action thriller that offers an engaging mix of crime, drama, and intense action. Saif Ali Khan's charismatic performance, along with Jimmy Sheirgill's strong support, makes for a compelling watch. Tigmanshu Dhulia's direction brings authenticity to the film, capturing the essence of the heartland's criminal underworld. While the film has its flaws, particularly in pacing and character development, it remains an entertaining and impactful entry in the action genre. If you enjoy raw, rustic thrillers with strong performances and well-executed action, Bullet Raja is worth a watch.

Tigmanshu Dhulia started it with 'Haasil' on the backdrop of Uttar Pradesh dirty politics. "Haasil" explored the rural India, leaving the chiffon cinema aside; it showed that that there is real and earthy world beyond the picturesque imageries. He has been consistently trying to give us a taste of unsophisticated and practical realm.

Tigmanshu's first masala film 'Bullett Raja' have same flavor but the effort is mediocre here, mainly due to abrupt editing, loose screenplay and forced songs sequences.

We again witness earthy, rugged and edgy portions which are far from urban and looked truly rural.

"Bullett Raja" is about of two youngsters, Raja Mishra (Saif Ali Khan) and Rudra Tripathi (Jimmy Shergil) who engulfed themselves in the lands of dirty politics of Uttar Pradesh. They rise like heroes and on the flip side it deteriorates they tranquil lives.

Story is merely a revenge drama, but, the writing doesn't hold as the movie progresses. The screenplay is abrupt and flat. The best bit are the action sequences, it separates from the contemporary movies where we can see everything flying with no role of gravity. The action scenes looked really authentic with bullet firing in every 5 minutes. The love track was rushed and abrupt. The other thing which works here are the edgy and fabulous dialogs as always. It has now become the trademark of Dhulia. The climax is predictable; you will probably understand every nuance which the writer tried to reveal at the very end.

The film consists a good start cast (mostly Dhulia's favorite) and peculiar dialogs. Music by Sajid-Wajid is really forgettable as songs do not add anything.

Saif Ali Khan does a wonderful act here, carrying the entire film. He character is very well written. Jimmy Sheirgill is always good and does a fabulous job here. Sonakshi Sinha is common in all the movies now a days and she does the same thing, once again.

Bullett Raja delivers only in parts. The arena was right but it lacked the execution and writing for other actors was not coherent.
