#sanjuzzreviews #salutefilm #SonyLIVIndia
Directed by Rosshan Andrrews, Salute is a Malyalam mystery thriller starring Dulquer Salmaan as SI Arvind who has a change of heart after he discovers that he has fabricated evidence under pressure from politicians and framed an innocent person in a murder case.
He tries to run away from it all, but finally realises that the only way to unburden the load on his conscience is to revisit this long closed case and bring the real killer to book .
However things aren't so simple as it might spell doom for him and his brother who was heading the investigations.
Even though this is a film from the thriller genre and deals with police investigations, it is not your typical "maar dhaad" masala film. It is, on the contrary, a slow burn police procedural film which is very realistic. This riveting cop drama replete with new ideas is Dulquer Salman's film all the way as he encounters one roadblock after another in his quest to uncover the truth. His frustrations and efforts seem genuine and touch your core .
Might seem a bit slow but definitely worth a watch !! The ending is a bit different too, unlike the usual cop dramas.
My rating 3.5/5 .. adios 🙂
