Krantiveer

This movie worth National award. Nana's acting performance in this movie is excellent. Story,plot revolves around the tensions created by politics in India.

If you ignore the typical Bollywood's over dramatization, this movie depicts the close happenings of real world elections during 90's.

Both direction and acting are brilliant. Nana's, Jackie's acting are the finest of both their careers. Dimple Kapadia has also depicted Character in an finest way possible.

Movie clearly tries to show the Political control over the media for monitory gains. This movie is of a great message to society.

Krantiveer is an action crime film directed by Mehul Kumar. The film stars Nana Patekar, Dimple Kapadia, Atul Agnihotri, Mamta Kulkarni, Danny Denzongpa and Paresh Rawal.

A Juvenile disowned by his family and adopted by a miserly landlord vows to take revenge when the landlord gets killed.

Krantiveer which is now considered as one of the cult films of Indian cinema will always be remembered for the great dialogues by Nana Patekar and superb acting by all the characters. The film which was a blockbuster upon its release raises the issue of common man such as corruption, religious polarization effectively.

The plot of the film is good and execution is also good. I have read few comments in which the viewers are going gaga for the film and declaring the film as a masterpiece but in my opinion the film is decently entertaining and decently made and can't be considered as masterpiece.

The screenplay of the film is good and keep the viewers hooked to the screen, the only distraction could be the songs which comes from no where although Most of the songs were popular at the time of release of the film but now could be distraction for few viewers.

Acting is good and this film became a milestone film in the acting career of Nana Patekar, apart from Nana Patekar, Dimple kapadia, Danny and Paresh Rawal were also equally impressive. Mamta Kulkarni and Atul Agnihotri were there is the film just to dance and sing songs. Climax of the film is superb and the most powerful part of the film.

Overall a good film and one of the most important film for Nana Patekar who surely deserves an applause for this film.

The subject matter of Krantiveer is quite interesting, and it could have been a great classic. But sadly the film is a) very very exaggerated in execution; and b) is clearly not a film confident in its own merit and in order to attract wider audiences makes use of some unnecessary romantic subplots with younger actor so as to just make it more commercially appealing. As for the first point, the film is just very theatrical. Despite a strong story and good actors, it keeps abusing its core message and pushing it too much by being quite preachy, sometimes stagy, and unrealistic. The second point is a common problem of many films of the sort where older actors lead the film. In this film, Nana Patekar and Dimple Kapadia, two great actors who had by then passed their so-called sale-by-date, were probably insufficient factors for a commercial film, and so two young charmers were recruited for the songs and romantic portions, Atul Agnihotri and Mamta Kulkarni. How funny is that. The portrayal of the communal riots and the dehumanization that takes place after is handled quite well.

Where the film scores big time and everybody already knows that is in the stupendous presence of Nana Patekar, one of India's topmost actors. Patekar is tremendous in the part - real, nuanced, fiery - and he's quite a star, which is something the producers didn't really know or understand. He creates a man who is both a character actor and a hero, and this is definitely enough of a reason to watch the film. Another reason is obviously Dimple Kapadia, a marvelous actress in her own right. Her character is sometimes stereotypically written, but in a number of hard-hitting scenes, she outdoes herself even if the context is a little theatrical. Atul Agnihotri and Mamta Kulkarni do their usual bits, giving exactly what's expected of them, which is not much, as does Danny Denzogpa, who is the most typical villain you can get. I wish director Mehul Kumar had not turned this dark subject matter into a fluffy potboiler, as also seen in the songs and some of the action. The communal strife though is handled well, and kudos to Patekar and Kapadia for their superbly played roles. Overall, a flawed film but thoroughly watchable.

earlier when Bollywood used to have limited budget, technicians, etc actors used to be the captain of the ship. this one has the one of the most capable actors of last few decades. thought i would like to encourage people to watch this film because of mehul kumar. this guy had a vision and it shows with every frame. its a full entertainment riot. Bollywood's fight club. it made me think for days when i 1st saw it when i was hardly 10. see it to believe in one man revolution. look it for acting, direction, story possibly every basic thing you can expect from a great film. surprisingly it has some funky music which was super-hit at that time and even today it will entertain you with lyrics. finally, this one is not for a miss.

Mehul Kumar's 1994 drama about the importance of battling social injustice stars Nana Patekar as Pratap, a decent but lazy man unwilling to fight for anyone's cause but his own. He is finally roused to action by a fiery reporter named Megha (Dimple Kapadia) and by the cruelty of a ruthless, exploitative businessman named Yograj (Tinnue Anand). This movie is the most talented scripture I have ever seen. This movie also starring in Mamta, Atul & Danny. The movie features one of the best direction that I have ever seen. This movie is so interesting that I watched it more than 20 times. All the actors must have take there time in making this film.
