Trimurti

This movie might not be considered the best by people looking for some serious storyline or OTT direction or editing. But, if you love watching a nice Bollywood movie with some great music and some great dialogue lines, this movie is a must watch.

Trimurti was a movie that a lot of people were dying to see when it was first advertised. It had a good director and producer Subash Ghai and Mukul Anand. Above that it had a great star cast of Anil, Shahrukh and Jackie in one film. No disrespect to any of the heroines in the films, but i don't know who they are. The movie should of had at least one famous face actress. Madhuri Dixit, Kajol or Juhi. Even low key actresses at the time like Mamta and Shilpa Shirodkar would of been a better choice. The villain did a good job in this film although I would of preferred someone famous like Amrish Puri or Kader Khan. Originally Sanjay Dutt was suppose to be in this film as the Gangster brother, but he was in prison. It would of been better if it starred Anil Kapoor, Shahrukh Khan and Sanjay Dutt as the three brothers. No offence to Jackie Shroff who is a good actor, but the other three are brilliant actors. Anil Kapoor gave a good performance and he was the best out of the three in my opinion. Jackie Shroff was quite boring in this film and therefore i didn't like him. Shahrukh Khan who performed in Baazigar, Darr, Anjaam, DDLJ before this film released acted so amateurish. Its hard to believe, Im a big Shahrukh khan fan, but Shahrukh Khan didn't give a great performance in this film as he always does. He didn't quite suit the character. Anyway this is still a decent watch.

Trimurti is nearly 3 hours long....don't know if anyone will be patient enough to sit through it.

Story is about 3 brothers who get separated from their parents due to bad circumstances created by an evil tantrik, and how they soon come together to fight evil.

The good - locales where the film is shot, some action sequences, some dialogues, the songs, few comedy scenes,Anil Kapoor is no doubt the best actor in the film, followed by Jackie Shroff.

The bad - lot of overacting, especially by Shahrukh khan. I think he was not even needed in the film. Also the film is too long, editing is weak at some places, some stuff is unbelievable.

This film is watchable but it could not have run.

"Trimurti"had the merit of getting a successful producer and an extremely talented director working on the same film.Although it was reportedly less up to the expectations of the masses IT was a "melange des genres" film which had greater appeal for an Indiana Jones western public. The film like most Mukul Anand Films is technically far ahead of its times as regards indian mainstrem cinema. The story of two brothers with different ways of being and living, their love for their younger brother symbolises the forces of materialism versus idealism. Above all the majestic portrayal of good against evil epitomised by the fight of the mother against the monstrous KOOKA and the destruction of the latter in this tale of tantric destiny makes this film a compelling must for all Mukul Anand film fans

I think this is one of Anil Kapoor's best performance till date. On television it was difficult to fast forward only to his scenes, but thanks to Netflix and ability to watch movies online you can. His looks, perfect background score when he is on screen and excellent dialogue delivery.
