Sri Raghupati

I have seen lot of assamese movies but one honest opinion about this movie would be the best utilization of available resources. Flawless acting of each character in the movie, none of the scenes would feel like over acting or forces commedy. Every scene of the movie has been well picturiezed and keeps you synced with movie. Big pat on back of ravi sharma for his very natural acting. Kudos to assamese movie industry, please make movies realistic like this always. 10 stars is not enough. Assames film industry is filled with talent but they do not get right platform but this movie gives everyone a chance to redeem themselves.

Raghupati is an Assamese Action thriller revolving around missing girls where Raghupati, the right guy stands on one side and the human trafficking on the other. It's a thrilling adventure about how a common govt police employee dug deep to expose and wage war against the trafficking racket that plagued the society for ages. Raghu's personal loss and the corrupt system moved him to the root to act as fire against the hurricane. Arun Nath is dashing as the punky old guy who is left with few years but with commendable commitment to fight against evil. Both duo is a memorable pair that stands with each other in this modern re-retelling of the great epic Ramayana. As said by Tora's father there are many Ravans in today's time and make us remember Sudhakontho's lyric that says --- let life fades in the war against Ravan.

The film's vibe is new to Assamese audiences. Ravi Sarmah is the bright spot in the film, reflects the hard man with righteousness. Other casts are also well done, decent and touchy. The script is also well written, meaningful plots with fun themes imbibed with regional sentiments. There are significant scenes of dragginess dependent upon BGM but you will feel the suspense throughout. The story wàs good with moral rigidity. The presentation nevertheless is adopted from modern Bollywood action thriller, having unrealistic action sequences and fast paced sounds. But the social set up is detailed whether it be rural or urban landscape. The film is undoubtedly a commercial success earning about 130 million gross. It will definitely earn the Assamese approval for it being the good attempt to add modern flavour to traditional cinema. Arun Nath also in new look, is bonus treat to watch.

It's an Assamese film upgraded in its technical aspects. The film has few flaws like being noisy or highly BGM dependent. But the nook and edges of the script are well knitted. Assamese filmmakers should not stop here and must work to create new quality based films for upcoming generations, with real stories and realistic presentations which well appeals to society. Trying for realistic plots will be a good start. For an attempt to make a film with all the equipments and members it's a 7/10. A full 70/100.
