The Sabarmati Report

Nice watch for knowing what is not told much about in recent past.

The work ethics of some media houses are shown adequately.

The movie wastes no time in getting to the point, and the unfolding drama immediately piques your interest.

But this movie should be given a pain of more research and proper technical & aesthetic treatment.

. However, after a while, it starts to feel a bit sluggish as the narrative becomes somewhat stagnant. That said, the story picks up pace once the investigation begins.

. The movie could have been more engaging by delving deeper into the emotional plight of the victims and highlighting the gruesomeness of the burning train. Additionally, the makers shy away from explicitly addressing how a particular religion's communal hatred played a role in this heinous crime.

I had initially decided to put this on the back burner due to the dismal performance of this movie at the box office and the truckload of negative reviews. However, since a friend of mine worked on this film, he suggested I give it a chance.

As the title suggests, this movie revolves around the catastrophic burning of the Sabarmati Express in Godhra, Gujarat, where 59 people were burned alive. It took nearly 15 years to establish that this was not an accident but a heinous crime fueled by hate.

Vikrant Massey shines throughout as a journalist and fits the role perfectly. Riddhi Dongra, as the senior journalist, is the true star of this film. She portrays a headstrong, ambitious woman with remarkable realism. Raashi Khanna appears in the latter half of the movie but makes her presence felt with a sincere performance.

While the film lacks suspense to make the ongoing investigation truly thrilling, the camaraderie between Vikrant and Raashi makes it a compelling watch. However, the graphics and art departments could have done a better job depicting the burned train.

This may not be a perfect movie, but it addresses one of the most significant chapters in Indian history that we must all be aware of. It's a decent watch, suitable for viewing with the family.

If you want to know how media gaslights, distorts facts, indulges in vulture rhetoric filled journalism without caring for human lives, politico media nexus it is a must watch. Though few negatives, they are overwhelmingly overshadowed by lot many positives! It will make you feel how our opinions become superficial with what we see on the surface without ever scratching it further to make an informed opinion! Go, do watch and make it a hit! A story not be forgotten. Don't go with how media reviews like The Hindu, The Indian Express etc. You will understand their compulsions to bury this movie.

This movie is an experience! The Sabarmati Report delivers a storyline filled with intrigue, suspense, and raw emotion. Vikrant Massey's performance makes the investigation feel authentic, and Raashii Khanna adds an emotional depth that is refreshing amid the intensity. Each plot twist feels like a revelation, and the pacing is spot-on, building tension steadily. The way the story unfolds makes you feel like you're right there with the characters, uncovering each clue. It's a gripping and emotional journey that kept me on edge throughout! It was so wonderful and nice forever. Like this very much.

The movie picked up a good topic and messed it up.

It fails to answer any of the questions -

• Why was the train set on fire ?

• Background events that led to the incident. Motive.

• Who gained politically from the incident ?

• What the administration could have done to prevent the incident ?

• How the administration handled the after effects ? And why ?

• There is very brief mention about the after riots. Who was responsible for the riots ? Who gained from riots ?

Actors did a good job, but direction is bad.

There is no investigation done by protagonist at all. Things just happen in the movie without any effort.

The loud suspenseful music is used more than it is required.
