I want to write a totally objective, free-of-cuss-words review of Zanjeer 2013.
I can't.
Prakash Raj behaves like a buffoon (and remember, he is a National Award winner). Sanjay Dutt staggers around in drunken stupor. Mahie Gill emotes through her cleavage and Priyanka Chopra through her belly button. The only respectable element: Ram Charan Teja. Yet his sincerity is misplaced in this tragic, moronic mess.
If Amitabh Bachchan does not take out a court order preventing any further remakes of his films, I will. And I will also feed to hungry sharks the next filmmaker who dares to remake an AB classic.
But then, the Hindi Film Industry would die of starvation. Because in over a hundred years, it has not found another actor whose movies they can remake and thereby feed their families. Not Raj Kapoor. Not Dilip Kumar. Not Rajesh Khanna. Not Shah Rukh Khan. Not Sanjeev Kumar.
Amitabh Bachchan. That's where it begins, that's where it ends.
