    A family film

    Being a film enthusiast, i normally watch all films in theatres. this film being a political one, i tried to avoid many times but had to go as there were no choice left. to my surprise this was an excellent movie. it had all the qualities of a very good movie. i was really touched by family scenes of the protogonist. he is a great artist. background music is first in class. never miss it.

    LOVED THE TROLLS

    THE POLITICAL COMEDY IN THE FILM IS FATASTIC. THE STORY OF ANAND SHOULDNT BE MISSED UNDER THE SHADE OF KANNOOR VISHWAN. BEST WISHES TO THE ENTIRE TEAM

    This is how political movie should be like!

    Biggest problem with most political movies is that they take themselves way too serious. "Janaadhipan" is mainly entertaining and on top of that, the dialogues are top class! The characters really jumps off the screen but it never feels overdone or forced, which is thanks to director. He should stick to directing political movies like this. Don't go to other genres as this film failed. Stick to were your talent lies. 10/10
