Faraaz

Hansal Mehta always has a good hand when it comes to crime drama film specially when it is based on true events. Plotline of this film is very good specially the tension between the hostages and the terrorists are the highlights of this film. But apart from that there is nothing that has been shown after watching the whole film it looks like there are several details that director hasn't shown specially with the government sector in the storyline. Story feels very basic and mixture of various crime drama film because there are various aspects that has missed and director could've easily show the second side of the government process and the terrorist organisation. Performance was good by the lead and it'll keep you hooked. So all n all it's a one time watch if you love crime drama serious film than you can give this film a try....

So funny. Bangladesh Police is talking in hindi wearing the official uniform of Bangladesh Police. Sarcastic for that specific police force. So lame.

In Bangladesh, another movie maker named Mostafa Sarwar Farooqui directed another movie in same topic that is named as "Shonibar Bikele" or "In the afternoon of a Saturday". But the sensor board did not permit him to publish this movie due to some reasons which is really a matter of sorrow. And they appealed to release the movie before months whereas he is still waiting to release it. But bollywood has made it done by making this unrealistic movie on the topic of anothercountry. This is very funny.

This movie has made me wonder about the safety of the breweries and eateries in Bengaluru, and other places, which can accommodate hundreds of people, whther they are prepared to handle terrorist attacks such as the one shown in the movie. The movie was average. I liked the meaning of the name Faraaz and the message given in the end. However, I couldn't connect to the movie. The events in the movie were not organized properly and it was like grabbing pieces from here and there and clubbed together. The movie could have been better directed. It is a one time watch movie and should be watched without much expectations.

Firstly a message to my Bangladeshi brethren... can you please calm down about Bangladeshi police speaking Hindi. What exactly were you guys expecting... that they would speak shudh Bangla .. and us people in South India would magically understand it? That's the best you can think of to thrash this film? Jeez! You guys need to grow up.

I can empathize with your anger about the film maker trying to whitewash Faraaz's role. I'm a neutral guy in a corner of south India and hence can buy your argument about lack of evidence about whether Faraaz was truly a hero. But this is where I again want to call our common cultural background from the Indian subcontinent...I think it is highly stupid of us to expect our film industry to be truthful to history when the real torch bearers of history themselves aren't. Many movies of Indian historical incidents that are so totally distorted. Rani Padmavat. That wasn't even a real character. And yet there was a huge controversy in India over it... all because some Bollywood director thought he was given the duty of educating us about history. Take our Bollywood movies with a bag of salt... and keep the perspective that this is only a movie. You guys have enough things to bow your head about how things transpired with the traitors in your country post independence. When you can live with that... this is small fry.

It is a good attempt to make a film about this horrible event. However, as the film producers are making this one for commercial purposes, they have altered many actual incidents and made it suitable to watch and enjoy like a thriller movie. For a Bangladeshi viewer, who knows the actual facts, it is difficult to watch this movie considering the actual event in mind. Therefore, if you told this story as fiction and altered the name and natural places, it could be acceptable for many viewers. To mention the good part, everyone, like the actor, director and sound engineer, did their best. Personally, I couldn't enjoy the movie with biased storytelling and altered factual events.
