    Concept around commercial template!

    The main drawback is the template in which the story and the concept is made, the plot point which is a unique and thought provoking one similar to khaleja but the ingrediants the makers put to bring a commercial colours ruined it. For example a villain in foreign is useless and unnecessary and few songs doesnt fit into the movie. The movie length could be cut to 2hrs from 2hrs35minutes to make it crisp and interesting. Valmiki character can be introduced lot earlier to bring the curiosity into the movie. By the time valmiki comes then the interesting portion of the movie actually starts.

    Revenge is totally different ,a new concept and with perfect execution

    I could have watched this in theatre instead in Zee5 premium. Due to Violence I have reduced one star. Over all execution is good, concept is good. God always punish bad, eradicate bad at one point of time. These kind of movies should keep coming in future to awake the corrupted people in all of the areas. Sorry to say this, Not sure how this is under valued by lot of other people with giving less rating. All the best for the director, entire crew for having such a good movie.
