Sarkar 3 is RGV's desperate attempt to regain lost territory and he does succeed to a certain level. The movie is for those who have the patience to wait till the climax when all the pieces finally come together to complete this puzzle called Sarkar 3. As always in a Ram Gopal Varma movie, the camera work and the background score are exceptionally good. The movie has nothing new to offer but some fine performances by Mr. Bachchan and Amit Sadh make up for the slow pace. Manoj Bajpai is impressive as Govind while Bajrangbali Singh who plays Gandhi is a great find. Yami Gautam holds on to the same 'horrifying' expression throughout the movie. Ronit Roy is another fine actor who never lets his audience down although Jackie Shroff does get on your nerves. Unlike Sarkar, the movie has no great dialogues worth remembering. All said and done, the movie is a good reminder of the elite class of directors RGV once belonged to.

First, the good bits: Choreography, music, direction and scene settings; the transitions. Etc The bad bits: The plot. The script - that kept us alert and in raptures like the first two. It transcends from a fairly good movie until the last 20 minutes - when it becomes quite unbelievable. Like as if the script writer was changed halfway . . . . The first two movies were a continuation of a theme. This one starts from nowhere and ends - well, I'll let you decide.

Shot taking style with dark key lighting, focus shifting, out focus to in focus, are very tiring and irritating for eyes and that is in abundant. Even director dared to keep a dog statue in focus while keeping Mr. Sarkar out of focus that is just unbearable because it's always a delight to watch him. Heroine face has captured between handle of coffee mug. Film is stuffed with such type of shots. Story is very convenient. A Dubai based builder, his keep for glamour quotient by showcasing her body. Conflict and confusion between Sarkar's own blood that is grandson and old body guards. Keeping name Gandhi to a hard core shrewd villain is creativity by makers!! Film is typically slow. Characters are not well established so you didn't attach with them. So climax comes just as an information without much surprise. Performance wise Mr. Amitabh Bachchan is fantastic as usual. Manoj Bajpeyi is marvelous too in his guest appearance. Jachie Shraff is fine. Rest are just OK. Unable to understand that why did Yami Gautem accept this role which had literally nothing to do.

Is he the same man who once gave us films like Shiva, Drohi, Satya or Company? Even the first installment of this unnecessarily dragged franchise was more fascinating.But this mess was absolutely unnecessary, just like the tweets of its creator, annoying and disgusting.In an effort to become a maverick and enigmatic, RGV has made a buffoonery of himself.So I am not going to write a review of this piece of trash.But you do yourself a favor, stay away of Sarkar3 and save some important time.

Nothing new in this same political drama that continued.. Story is very simple and straight forward. Don't know why Bollywood keep repeating the story again and again over and over. All most felt asleep in some parts. Don't want to discuses about it anymore feels like wasting time.

Being a fan of Amitabh Bacchan and Sarkar (Part 1), my expectations from the film were way too high! But was disappointed after watching the movie. The suspense was created but after a point they were just stretching the story line and then the story became too obvious to guess. Compared to Sarkar this one wasn't able to create the same hold. The feeling we got when heard theme music in Sarkar that was missing in this one. Talking about acting Big B has justified his character of Subhash Nagre, no flaw there. Amit Sadh also up to a certain extend made justice to his character. Yami Gautam was a disappointment. She didn't have much to do in the movie. Other then them performance of other actors was though not applaud-able but was not even substandard.

So overall, the movie is a one time go but you will not miss anything if you don't go.

Excellent but not a smooth one. Amitabh was excellent and played his role. Screenplay is a kind a week. Some unusual extending of some scenes. jacky shroff was disgusting and don't fit.Overall not a bad movie to watch. I personally liked the ending.

So my rating is 7.

Summary (no spoilers)

This movie is the third installment to RGVs Sarkar trilogy, which shows the exploits of a powerful political figure.

My Review (no spoilers)

The plot of this movie Is the same all over again. Kind off bored with watching the same movie again and again. Amitabh Bachchan did a good job as usual but the rest none of them came up to the mark. Only thing I enjoyed in this movie is the "Govinda" BGM as usual. There was one song in this movie which interested me and it was sung by Amitabh Bachchan himself. The ending of this movie was predictable and not so great. I think it's time they lay down this franchise. Overall not so great movie with the same plot as always.

My Recommendation

No due to the plot I would suggest not to watch this movie.

My Rating

0/10

Note: Pls watch the Sarkar 1 and 2 for a better understanding of the story and characters.

The Sarkar franchise continues from where it left off in Sarkar-2 with Amitabh portraying the role of Sarkar,head of the most powerful family in Maharashtra's politics. The plot revolves around the conflict between Sarkar and the unscrupulous builder lobby over a plot of land to be re-developed.

After the death of both his sons ,Sarkar is shown to have aged but is certainly not down and out.He is now ably supported his 2 lieutenants Gokul (Ronit Roy) and Raman (Parag) who is mute. His grandson Shivaji (Amit Sadh) , Kay Kay Menon's son (who has been bumped off by Abhishek B in Sarkar1) comes backs into his life and things take a turn for the worse.

Twists in the plot : 1)Are Shivaji's intentions Honorable or is he actually the vengeful son who has turned up to avenge his fathers death??

2)The other twist is when Gokul is coerced into joining the enemies of Sarkar by exploiting his insecurity after Shivaji's entry into Sarkar's life and the irresistible offer of having Sarkar's position and status in Maharashtra's politics. Has he actually turned traitor or is he still loyal to Sarkar & working covertly for him??

The plot moves through these ever changing twists and turns before the truth is finally unveiled in the climax.

Cast : Amitabh as Sarkar is amazing & gives a restrained performance ,delivering shock value exactly when required. Awesome screen presence!!!

Ronit Roy is also great as Sarkars right hand who controls everything behind the scenes without too many dialogues , mostly conveying his emotions through his eyes only.

Amit Sadh plays his part to the T, as an impetuous & reckless young man , trying to prove himself a worthy successor in the eyes of his grandfather.

Yami Gautam as Sadh's girlfriend has a chilling, unblinking, vengeful look throughout which gives you the creeps. This could've been better exploited … alas !!

Manoj Vajpayee's character of a power hungry politician could've been better to make a substantial impact on the film . Not bad but a bit too loud !!!

Jackie Shroff as the don cum crooked businessman mouths cryptic dialogues which can rack your brain all night long...if you try to make sense of them , is funny to say the least !!

Verdict : Most of the film hovers in the dark . This darkness has been used effectively along with the "Govinda Govinda" background score to jolt you throughout the film. The Ganesh aarati song by Amitabh is great and is the only song in the whole movie.

The climax is worth waiting for and the twists and turns in the plot keep you firmly grounded to your seat.

Well directed by Ramgopal Verma,albeit with a few loose ends as far as some of the characters go. Not bad at all .

Watch it if you are a fan of the Sarkar franchise. I can assure you that the characters will keep you thoroughly engrossed.

A typical Ram Gopal Varma movie which had something that was missing in his recent ventures. It gives a hint that RGV might have regained his touch to at least make a decent movie. Sarkar 3 is decently written and directed but has nothing unique or impacting.

Ram Gopal Verma's 'Sarkar 3' is An Underwhelming Watch, Despite A Star-Studded Cast! The two parts prior to this, were well-made films (although the first one was literally The Godfathter, which Ramu admitted himself), but the third time around, Sarkar seems to have lost his edge. Its strictly an okay film, that is shun down by a predictable story-line.

'Sarkar 3' Synopsis: Shubash Nagre aka Sarkar (Amitabh Bachchan), finds himself caught in between a web of conspiracies of corrupt politicians, a powerful business & his own grandson, Shivaji (Amit Sadh).

'Sarkar 3' is clichéd film, where nothing unpredictable happens, expect for the ending, which has a nice twist. The narrative is watchable, but it never arrests to a point where you'd root for Sarkar or even be engaged by his villains. P Jaya Kumar's Screenplay sticks mostly to predictability & hence doesn't offer anything new. Ramu's Direction is average. The filmmaker isn't in form this time around. Cinematography is standard. Editing lacks crispness. Art Direction is well-done.

Performance-Wise: Amitabh Bachchan returns as Sarkar & he's alright. The rustiness in his voice, makes it a little hard to understand the dialogue he speaks. Amit Sadh as Shivaji has strong screen presence, but channels Big B a bit too much. Jackie Shroff, in the most ill-written villainous role here, is wasted. Manoj Bajpayee is fantastic & undoubtedly, the show-stealer. The acting giant enacts the corrupt, evil politician to perfection. Yami Gautam is fair. Ronit Roy is as usual. Rohini Hattangadi is hardly there. Others lend support.

On the whole, 'Sarkar 3' is an average fare, at best.

Over dramatization, ridiculous camera angles, semi-clad villain's girlfriend, predictable twists and turns, slow delivery of dialogues. This seems to be RGV's standard formula for making a don-related movie. That formula didn't work in this movie. What a waste of good actors like Amitabh Bachan & Jackie Shroff.

Solid n reliable Bachchan returns as Nagre in #Sarkar3, but this version disenchanted me. The previous parts were far superior. The standard RGV practices are on full display here, like, in-your-face close ups of people n random objects, dark rooms n characters, slow dialogue recitation, tension-filled situations n sudden slayings. Amit is good as the faithful grandson. Manoj is bumped off before he makes an impact. Gifted actresses like Pathak n Hattangady r wasted. Jackie is made to look more funny than intimidating. Some more brutality would have definitely added value to the film. Rating 2.5/5.

Sarkar was good. Sarkar Raj was enough. Sarkar 3 was not needed.

P.S. Subtitles required even when Hindi is your mother tongue 'cause backround music is so high you can't hear a thing.

I am a fan of the SARKAR franchise and enjoyed this installment better than Part II. Amitji was excellent in his role as were Ronit Roy and Jackie Shroff. It was a dark film, but like Sarkar it was principled. It portrayed Sarkar as both cunningly political and devotedly committed to his god, Ganesha. I sincerely hope that SARKAR 4 is in the works for future release.

Sarkar 4 bannni chayiee.its too good sarkar movie Big B acting is something else.
