Sangharsh

This is actually a rather risible remake of Demme's Silence of the Lambs (1991). Although the prison scenes are very similar and there are some suitably grisly scenes of violence, it does not adhere particularly closely to the model. It is not easy, for instance, to imagine Anthony Hopkins and Jodie Foster dancing a duet as Ashkay Kumar and Preity Zinta do, he dressed as Zorro and she in a pretty white frock - under the noses of the police they are supposedly hiding from!! This makes the film, in many ways quite a slick professional production, sound rather more awful than it is, but even on a charitable judgement it is pretty bad....

Ohh yes... I came here to see Ashutosh Rana's performance and he doesn't disappointed me as well. I have already watched Silence of the lambs but still I got a good experience with this movie. It's music was pure 90s nostalgia for me because I am also a boy of 90s. So yeah! Good movie to watch and 7 out of 10 stars from my side.

It could have been far better if it doesn't follow typical bollywood old fashioned excitement on the girl the hero loves. If there is no love between the two protagonists, it could be near great. It deserve 4, but additional 3 comes for Asutosh Rana, the brilliance.

Sangharsh is adaptation of hollywood movie the silence of the lambs. Although sangharsh is good but it could not touch the level of the Hollywood movie. Script is good but in each scene more depth is needed. Characters needed more depth. Music and direction are good. Performances are fine. Akshay kumar excels in his role (the indianized version of Anthony Hopkins). The jail conversation scene between akshay kumar and preity zinta is worth watching. Ashutosh rana as lajja shankar is good but it should have been a more realistic villain. Script writer should have made lajja more real. Ted levine in silence of the lambs was realistic villain.

This film is somewhat a copy of "Silence of the Lamb" which was an excellent movie. But I would consider 'Sangharsh' to be an average movie. There reason it did not go to become a successful, because of few reasons. The Direction is not as good as it should be, the scripting is not as it should be, the backdrop and the subject is good, but there was no reason to copy it, they could have made a whole new script for the movie. Only good thing about this film is the two songs which became a massive hit and brought people into theater and the new guy "Ashutosh Rana", the villain of the movie whose spine chilling performance, made this movie worth to watch.
