Like Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s movies, this movie too
has marvelous and grandeur sets. This movie is based on the historical novel ‘Raau’
authored by N. S. Inamdar, a Marathi novelist. This romantic story is about the
Maratha warrior Peshwa Bajirao and his second wife Mastani. Ranveer Singh as
Bajirao looks like a warrior walks like a warrior and talks like a warrior. I
must say one of his best performances. Priyanka Chopra as Kashibai, Bajirao’s
first wife looks very attractive and does justice to the character. She has
less scenes but her acting impresses much more. Neither Deepika Padukone’s looks
nor her acting impresses. On a classical song while dancing her face
expressions are very poor. The weakest point of the movie is that her face
expressions more or less remain the same throughout the movie. Milind Soman is
a great surprise. He acted in at least one movie. Tanvi Azmi as Bajirao’s
mother acted very well. The rest of the actors also leave their impression on
audiences.
The aaina
mahal set is amazing and its reflection in Kashibai’s room’s curtain is quite
impressive. The war scenes look real. The scenes created with graphics and the characters are
blended too well that everything on screen looks real. Music and songs are melodious. The background music is pleasing.
Costumes are attractive and eye catching.
First half is gripping and the second half is ok
type and climax is bit weird, too lengthy and too slow. If the end has been
changed the movie would have been far better. Even then it is a must watch on
BIG SCREEN!
