Mumbaikar

This was so soulless, and Vijay Sethupathi role did not suit him in Tamil Maanagaram Munishkanth, Nailed that role, being a person who is totally silly and innocent and it did not suit Vijay Sethupathis personality, over a massive soulless movie that should have not been made. Lokesh K's first movie, and impressed the audience with his style of storytelling, and the issue with Mumbaikar is that it was just a copy-paste without the right emotions. As a big fan of Vijay Sethupathis, I just wish his entry to Hindi film should have been with some great role, and not with this role. I think as the rule goes leave the original as original and don't mess with it.

Mumbaikar review :

Premiering this weekend on JioCinema, Mumbaikar is another South remake attempted by Bollywood. This time, they have picked up Lokesh Kanagaraj's far superior Maanagaram (2017) and made an average Hindi movie out of it. Quite unnecessary I would say, as the original Hindi dub of the Tamil hit is available online!!

Anyway, Mumbaikar marks the Bollywood debut of Tamil star Vijay Sethupathi and it's kinda sad he has chosen this launch which offers him no scope at all. In fact, his character is so underdeveloped that you just can't connect with it. Vikrant Massey is another wasted talent here and you sincerely wish this gentleman chooses better projects... for his own good!! The pretty Tanya Maniktala is the proverbial heroine but trust me, she was much better off in A Suitable Boy (2020).

The plot, revolving around a kidnapping gone wrong, which impacts some dozen odd characters ranging from underworld to a BPO (outsourcing) office, is something up Kanagaraj's sleeve. Director Santosh Sivan falters badly with its Hindi remake, which is a bit surprising looking at his rich experience.

Watch Mumbaikar only if you have nothing else to do this weekend.

Excellent movie. Must must watch. Fun. Light, simple.

Actors- Great 5/5 Acting- excellent 5/5 Story- superb 5/5 Direction- good. 4/5 Songs- ok 3/5 Script- 5/5

Confusions, chaos, situational comedy, shuttle hints, It is too good.

I would request audience in their free time pls do watch the movie including youth, police, corporate employees, mumbai dons, honest immigrants and core Mumbaikars

Zabardast drama.

I wonder why some ridiculous drug driven (?) movies are rated 8,9,10 and these simple comedies with amazing situational comedy is rated so low.

Are these portals also hacked by bots and money power. ???

Best Actors doing a Wrong Movie and the Worst Movie ever Played By Good Actor.

No Sense of Making these types of Movies in 2023.

Pure Bakwas Movie I've ever watched.

Most Of Actors are very Popular and Well good in every terms but don't know why they played this kind of Character.

Very worst movie.

Ratings option should be 0.

But 1 is okay for Good Acting.

And for 2 Hours entertainment also Give 1 Rating for very Bad and Passing My time.

Never wanna see this movie ever.

After watched I ask myself why I downloaded it and for what reason.. I can't answer myself so what type of Rating I can provide here.. Sorry.

For me It's worst Movie as per My Opinion.

Yes, I felt this one was very fast movie. From the begininng events taking place very fast. Story going smoothly and taking a turn at acid events, kidnapping and misunderstanings. Story merging with all characters at some point. Mumbai people's different flavours shown perfectly. One Mafia, A Local Gang, New comer in Mumbai for join the Gang, Another New comer for new professional job for family and girlfriend, His Selfish Friend, One Middle class new comer for settle down in mumbai with Taxi Driver's job, A Corrupt Police Officer, An Honest Hawaldar and last but no the least the Couple. Songs not required. But end was not that much good. Still one time watch! Vijay's acting was fabulous.
