Yudhra film review Yudhra is able to achieve several resets, but it also falls to boredom on several scores. It’s an issue of stumbling upon some exciting set pieces that eventually fall into a lack of predictableness that lasts for many too long.
The classic cops-and robbers tale will continue to be a popular favorite, but when done properly and well, there’s no more enjoyable way to kick off the day. It’s important to refresh the old tropes so that although you are familiar with the basic outline of these characters, the details can be the difference between a good or bad film.
“Yudhra” manages to achieve several adjustments, but succumbs to boredom on a variety of scores. It’s it’s a matter of finding some exciting set pieces that are then sucked into laxity and regularity that goes on for far too long.
An immense haul of cocaine lies at the heart of this war between police and the gangsters within Mumbai. In the middle of it all is Yudhra (Siddhant Chaturvedi) along with his operative who is an old-time police officer, in conflict with the main villains of the story, the drug boss Feroz (Raj Arjun) and his unspoiled son Shafiq (Raghav Juyal).
The story reveals an unsettling childhood and anger-related issues to the child orphaned Yudhra who gets the honorary title of son of the angel who guards him (Gajraj Rao) as well as his colleague (Ram Kapoor). Some incidents are notable. However, Yudhra is able to mature and begins to get his head kicked by people who bother him while his instructor is forced to teach him how important it is to use his anger wisely. Bam the hero goes along on board with his plan and pursues the evil individuals responsible for his tragic background, and that’s all when it comes to novelty involved.
Siddhant Chaturvedi’s acting isn’t enough to give life to his character as an undercover agent And he tries to do so, however for only certain minutes, he appears as a typical actor performing the required routines. This is not a huge issue for the actor, but when you consider the recent “Kho gaye hain hum kahan”‘, you’re sure there’s more he could do.
The same goes for Raghav Juyal, whose baddie-with-a-manic-edge (he also emits a high-pitched giggle at one point) is already feeling old. This is just one film, “Kill” where he utilizes these things in a positive way. The actor jumps out of the screen but the new blood demands breaking writing even though they are great at breaking bones and breaking flesh.
Malavika Mohanan’s portrayal of Yudhra’s former sweetheart Nikhat has more going on in the film than your typical heroine because of the way she takes part in one of the few set pieces that are a bit zingy and not putting her hands over her mouth or screaming into an alleyway.
And you guys, do not sing to me and no, you don’t even when you are trying to perform a sexually racy pacey actioner. This is the only way to stop all other activities. Your high-octane bang-thuds transform to molasses once you throw onto an ocean, at slow motion.
