OMKARA – A Review!

One of the most anticipated movies of the year has finally hit the theatres now! Yes people … we’re talking of a pack of U.P. outlaws who zoom out of the Bharadwaj stable and absorb us into their own world … OMKARA is here with a bang and has received unbelievably good reviews from almost all the noted critics including ours ![]()
While Omkara (Ajay Devgan-aka-Othello) heads the out rightly rusted bunch of heads, the complete film belongs to Langda Tyagi (Chote nawaab Saifu-aka-Iago) with his tarnished teeth and wicked mind. He has all the wicked plots and witty one liners to his credit as he displays the epitome of jealousy and conspiracy. The below the belt lyrics add the typical rusticity, which were never so appealing nor evident in Indian cinema! Ajay has modestly underplayed his role justifying his character totally. The same can’t be said about Oberoi Jr. who proves to be the limp factor of the film.
The women also have a meaty part in the guy flick (Konkana Sen undoubtedly grabs the best scene). Bipasha has the two raunchy dance numbers and an ultra seductive and sultry image in her kitty, while Kareena looks ever so ravishing in her Orthodox image.
The plot evolves as the conspiracy and insecurity grows … The original story by Shakespeare was one of his best tragedies and the Indianised version does full justice to it … Not to forget the amazing and subtle way it’s portrayed visually . Completely a director’s film……..
