Apurva

A crime thriller with story revolving around a survival drama of a girl n similar to NH10 movie but NH10 was very intense than this. But definitely worth a watch for it being a winning story. That struggle of a very ordinary girl to escape by withholding her composure in that horrifying situation is inspiring. It's not dragged unnecessarily, short n crisp with last 30 minutes with nail baiting scenes. Actors have performed quite well. But screenplay could have been even more intense n impactful. Available on Disney Hotstar. My ratings 6/10!

This was indeed a surprise package. I was expecting a shoddily done half baked crime thriller movie which sort of has been the 'speciality' of Disney HotStar in recent times. But luckily this wasn't the case with Apurva. First of all, the cinematography of the movie is top notch. It has been shot on real locations and the scenes are brilliantly shot. Even the BGM is good, it's not overdone.

But the main reason why this was such a good watch was because of the three menacing characters played by Abhishek Banerjee, Sumit Gulati and of course Rajpal Yadav as 'Jugnoo'. They ooze terror throughout the movie. It was great to see Rajpal Yadav doing a dark and negative role and he aced it. He's such a versatile actor. Also the movie keeps you on the edge of the seat throughout but the story and the plot is similar to NH10 starring Anushka Sharma.

Some of the negative aspects are continuity issues in some place, the actors not speaking in the chambal accent and few stretched scenes here and there.

Overall a good watch. Highly recommended.

With nothing new to offer this thriller is purely depends upon the screenplay that Keeps u going at a study place... Nikhil had been backed up with pretty good technical team where camera work is a major asset that captures the soul of raw & rustic plains of northern parts of India (Chambal),while the lighting during the night shots are a pleasant view to watch out... Tara sutaria might not be the best of her career but does justify to the role undoubtedly... Abhishek and Rajpal does a fantabulous job of typical freaks and are unpredictable with their wilder behaviour.... Overall a good popcorn movie to passout.

A thriller movie in which heroine is hero , faces different types of hard situations, but wisely or accidentally , is out of that danger . What Would be next & what will happen to her , would she be able to save herself & her prestige, are the questions in mind of viewer of the movie . Fortunately she wins & a happy ending . Situation , location , surroundings , night scenes of chambal valley , a well , police behaviour make that all real . The heroine , all the Villains have acted well according to their role & situation . Overall a good movie & i couldn't take break in between , till , it ended . Best wishes to the director & actors .

The whole premise of the kidnapping was weak. Secondly, 3 comedians don't make great villainous characters. Rajpal Yadav with his diminutive stature and personality wasn't convincing as a bad guy. As for the rest of the gang, at any point they didn't seem threatening enough to overpower the victim. Dialogues were pedestrian at best. If you have seen NH10 you wouldn't be overly impressed with this version. Tara was no Anushka, you required a bit more mature personality to pull off this role. Some scenes were obviously manufactured just for thrills. There is a whole wilderness for the bad guys to search for their escaped victim, but inspite of not having any clue, they always seemed to be in the vicinity of the victim. They surely must have some kind of extra sensory perception. The frantic fiance always seemed to be a day late in his rescue attempt so was basically useless to the plot. The good thing about the movie is that the director knew the limitation of the script and the actors and didn't prolong it unnecessarily.
