प्रसथनम

I had not heard of this movie and didn't plant to watch this movie. I accidentally watched a few minutes of this movie in amazon prime, thinking I was clicking some other movie. When I realized my mistake, I was already intrigued. But I didn't watch it then. I corrected my mistake and watched the movie I was planning to watch.

The next day I came back and watched this movie and loved it.

I don't understand why this movie is rated so low and why I had not heard of it before. I have seen a lot of mobster/political movies which all seem to be inspired by the godfather in some way or other. This movie is so different.

The performances are top notch. Manisha Koirala's role was not given any focus, but she shines in whatever she got. Jackie Shroff, Ali Fazal, Satyajeet Dubey all have done well and Sanjay Dutt is okay too.

The movie is certainly not perfect and the ending is somewhat cliched. But this movie is so, so underrated.

Give it a try, I'm sure you won't regret it.

Nothing new. It's a political drama. Each of the character played by the artist are awesome. Sanjoy Dutt, Ali Fazal and Jackie Shroff did great job. Fully entertaining movie.

Prassthanam is director Deva Katta's adaptation of his 2010 Telugu directorial with the same name. The story revolves around MLA Baldev Pratap Singh (Sanjay S Dutt) and the complex relationships within his family.

There isn't much novelty in the story itself, the director and screenplay writer Deva Katta creates quite a few twists to keep you engaged.

Prassthanam manages to hold your interest in parts due to its fast paced developments. But it also suffers from unwanted songs and just too many conflicts, happening all at once.

Sanjay Dutt gives a genuinely good performance., sanjay dutt's fans will love his role.👍

PRASSTHANAM = some great performances and a fine first half. But the ending of the movie is dull..!!😔

Well Sanjay Dutt's expressions are so genuine & it was nice to see his powerful punch in this movie! His acting as tough guy surely shows prowess here in this movie. Ali Faisal's acting is top notch also! It was a nice movie to watch. A little over dramatic at times, but hey it's a political thriller - so what do you expect. Exciting was the acting by all of the star ensemble!! Please see it - you won't be disappointed!!

Prassthanam - set in Maleehabad, Prassthanam is a political thriller with some impressive performances. Baldev Pratap Singh (Sanjay Dutt) inherits a political empire more by default as the scion of the family is felled and in the process, has to marry the latter's widow. As the stepfather, he adores his stepson and grooms him to be eligible for being his worthy heir, much to the disappointment of his own son from the marriage who decides to unleash mayhem. Baldev will have to wither the storm of many twists and turns that will test his love, loyalty, leadership and resilience. The lessons we learnt from our holy scriptures are mere ideals, one's actions in reality are guided more by his needs and desires, and the ties of blood are stronger than these ideals.

Remade from a Telugu film of 2010 by the same name, Prassthanam has a sombre and mature performance from Sanjay Dutt, who returns to a role that he has so often done in the past, that of a leader facing the test of time. Ali Fazal is superlative and Jackie Shroff is silent yet strong. The film isn't your average pot boiler although it has some predictable twists in the tale. The product is slick and shiny with an element of suspense kept alive until the very end. It could have been 20 minutes shorter probably that could have rendered Prassthanam to be faster paced and punchy. But director Deva Katta takes the film the whole nine yards, sucking some effectiveness out of it.
