Yudhra

This is an absolute garbage fest. The writer should be ashamed of himself. The movie is full of plotholes and inconsistencies. It cannot even follow it's own logic. In one scene, the hero takes a lot of time to go from location A to location B and in the very next one, he just teleports from one place to another. Sometimes the hero instantly heals from his wounds and other times he is seriously injured.

Now, I know that this is one of those switch off your brains kind of movie but even then, there is absolutely nothing interesting happening on the scene. The action is fine. The fight choreography is average, nothing the audience hasn't seen before. The romance is non existent. The less said about the plot, the better. And don't even get me started on the music. It is an absolute nightmare. I feel as if two second-graders have written this movie, and even that is an insult to the creativity of second-graders. This movie has the god awful lyrics of "Hat jaa baaju mein! Aane de Hawa" as the main song underscoring the entry of the villian and the hero. The first proper action song and this is what they give us.

The only reason I can think of as to why someone would pay to make this movie is to elevate the level of other Indian Releases. They want to be able to market average movies, and hence they are making the public used to the bottom of the barrel. Don't watch this movie, even for free.

Boring movie at all .. same old story .nothing new in action . Raghav performance was good only. Raghav should be in the place of siddhant so might be this movie would be good . Raghav role was too short in this movie only they used raghav name to make the movie hype . Sidhant doesn't even look like a hero . Actress performance was also not good. I went for this movie only because of raghav . I wouldnt recommend this movie to anyone . It's just waste of time and money . I would give 1 star just because of hard works done by whole team member I am giving 4 star rating otherwise this movie doesn't event deserve 1 star.

Yudhra (2024) : Movie Review -

Ravi Yudyawar's action drama Yudhra has proved again that not every action film with gore violence be "Animal" or "Kill." The action and violence aren't the only two materials that complete the film, but there are some things called the director's vision, passionate performances, and honest storytelling that fulfill the film's potential to prosper. Yudhra fails on every single front there. Siddhant Chaturvedi and Malavika Mohanan's action thriller turns out to be headless trash that you can hardly afford to watch.

Yudhra Rathore (Siddhant Chaturvedi) struggles with anger issues that have everything to do with his genetic trauma after his father and mother's accidental deaths. From childhood, he can't control his anger, and even his foster father can do nothing to stop him. Yudhra and his childhood friend, Nikhat (Malavika Mohanan), fall in love, but then Yudhra loses his temper yet again and is sent to prison. There, he learns the truth about his father's death and embarks on a mission to find the killer to seek revenge as well as help the nation's security. Will he be able to complete the mission?

The screenplay of Yudhra drags every 15 minutes because it hasn't got anything to hold the viewers. Every 15 minutes you have a useless scene that damages the tempo built by the previous 15 minutes, and then the same story repeats in the next interval. The first half goes into the introduction of messy characters that fail to make a connection with the audiences. Be it Yudhra, Nikhat, Firoz, or Shafiq, you don't feel attached to any of them, and they just keep wandering on the screen to grab your attention-all for zero results. The romance between Yudhra and Nikhat is terribly presented and is strictly for roadside romeos, but sadly it is portrayed by educated students belonging to medical and army streams. Wow, such stupidity! Unlike Kill, where the simplicity of the character drags you into the narrative even if it's set in a single place, Yudhra is far more diverse but extremely disturbing with the locations and characterizations.

Siddhant Chaturvedi grabbed everyone's attention with Gully Boy, and he was indeed very good there. But what's he doing after that? Or rather, how can you go so wrong after that? Bunty Aur Babli 2, Phone Bhoot, Kho Gaye Hum Kahan, and now Yudhra, what's this? Bro, this is not what I want from you. Be more sensible with the choices because we have seen your potential in Gully Boy. Malavika Mohanan looks hot, and that seems to be the only compliment from my side, because acting and all, sorry, wrong number! Raghav Juyal fails to create the Kill magic here and how! Raj Arjun plays a deadly villain, Ram Kapoor is dated but decent, Gajraj Rao was okayish, and Shilpa Shukla is wasted.

On the technical front, Yudhra has a decent sound design and background score. The music is unnoticeable, the cinematography isn't good, and the editing is poor. 142 minutes for the story, which doesn't even deserve 42 minutes of your time, seriously? Either we need better stories or we need better editors who know how to engage audiences for two hours. Shridhar Raghavan has written average stories like "War" (2019) and "Pathaan" (2023) in recent times, which were uplifted by huge scale and the director's vision of larger-than-life cinema, but Yudhrat lacks that. Ravi Udyawar is not Siddharth Anand, nor does the film have any big superstars to survive. Ravi's outdated vision hampers Yudhra more than anything, and the production value also looks compromised. As a whole, it's a big mess, but more than that, it's close to a headache point. Please stay safe at home.

RATING - 3/10*

It's bad. It's very bad. The story is super illogical. Twists are forced and extremely stupid. Action scenes are useless. The music is forgettable despite SEL and Javed Akhtar.

I don't know how the script/story was okayed by Excel. I have never felt this bad after watching this movie. Thank God I paid only 99 for this owing to National Cinema Day. Even 99 is a waste. Better to watch something on Netflix or Prime.

Only good thing is Raghav, who unfortunately has a very small screen time. Action scenes are also forced and obviously illogical. Sidhant is not a bad actor, but this role is just not for him. I wish he chooses a better script.

Siddhant Chaturvedi is a revelation in "Yudhra," proving that he's more than ready to lead an action-packed film. His commitment to the role is evident in every fight scene, from the intense hand-to-hand combat to the high-stakes chases. Malavika Mohanan brings warmth and emotion to balance the film's intensity, while Raghav Juyal surprises with his portrayal of a ruthless villain. The film excels in showcasing its actors, even when the storyline feels a bit predictable. This is a movie that will appeal to action fans who appreciate well-executed fight choreography and strong character moments.
