!
I was waiting for the movie since it's trailer was launched
Huge disappointment!
It's sluggish all the way...it doesn't seem to hold ur seats...
First half is black and white..
No concepts well clear!
It could have been much better
Nawazuddin Siddiqui doesn't disappoint anyway!
Director: Abhijit Panse
Producer and Writer: Sanjay Raut, MP (Rajya Sabha) Shiv Sena
Story: Thackrey revolves around the life of late Bal Keshav Thackrey, as he goes from being a cartoonist to founding a political party, Shivsena for the Maharashtrians and how he became the most influential person of Maharashtra.
Review: Thackrey movie shows the famous and not so popular life incidences of the Bala Saheb Thackrey, going through the crucial moments which made him, one of the most influential people ever born in the state of Maharashtra.
However, the movie fails at capturing the attention of the viewers and one will find it very hard to concentrate at the film throughout the 2 hours and 19 minutes. With a poorly written script, one finds it difficult to connect with the movies when movies go ahead showing the life of Bala Saheb Thackrey.
It is more like different new pieces reporting the incidence rather than being a movie.
If you are looking for a nicely written script with amazing shots, the movie is not for you.
One must only go if you would want to know about the life of Bala Saheb Thackrey.
Verdict: 2/5

The main storyline plots around balasaheb thackeray, the powerhouse of Mahatashtra ... The way his Biography is put forth by director may make you bore, Except Nawaz, The movie fails in every Aspect, The way balasaheb should be shown its exactly the opposite, Bad direction, I hope They remake this part with good direction
Had high expectations from this film considering the charismatic persona of the protagonist .
The narrative unfortunately is not gripping enough to hold the audience in rapt attention .
The film has its moments but seems disjointed, with punch lines that are laboriously inserted without having any impact on the narrative.
Navaz fits the bill perfectly and gets into the character with ease . But as they say no one can rise above the script . Could have been better .
5 out of 10 stars from me for this biographical docudrama.
