Review of Faraaz

Faraaz (2022)
7/10
Not a bad movie
15 April 2023
Firstly a message to my Bangladeshi brethren... can you please calm down about Bangladeshi police speaking Hindi. What exactly were you guys expecting... that they would speak shudh Bangla .. and us people in South India would magically understand it? That's the best you can think of to thrash this film? Jeez! You guys need to grow up.

I can empathize with your anger about the film maker trying to whitewash Faraaz's role. I'm a neutral guy in a corner of south India and hence can buy your argument about lack of evidence about whether Faraaz was truly a hero. But this is where I again want to call our common cultural background from the Indian subcontinent...I think it is highly stupid of us to expect our film industry to be truthful to history when the real torch bearers of history themselves aren't. Many movies of Indian historical incidents that are so totally distorted. Rani Padmavat. That wasn't even a real character. And yet there was a huge controversy in India over it... all because some Bollywood director thought he was given the duty of educating us about history. Take our Bollywood movies with a bag of salt... and keep the perspective that this is only a movie. You guys have enough things to bow your head about how things transpired with the traitors in your country post independence. When you can live with that... this is small fry.
