Critics Review

Politics of love and hate

The dialogues by Farhad Samji are often too filmy and funny and they don't always fit into the moment. Prassthanam manages to hold your interest in parts due to its fast paced developments. But it also suffers from the usual pitfalls like unwanted songs and just too many conflicts, happening all at once. In conclusion, Prassthanam is a tried and tested political potboiler with power, greed and emotions at its core.(more)

Sanjay Dutt, Jackie Shroff and Manisha Koirala in a film that suffers from dated storytelling

The style of the film veers from domestic soap opera to dramatic crime and action stitched together by political drama. Structured like a Shakespearean tragedy, Prassthanam is built on countless conflicts, awash with textbook characters and dated in its story-telling.(more)
