Paan Singh Tomar (2010) Review


Its very different from usual run of the mill stuff or the silly comedies we get now and then.Its more on the lines of "The Great Escape" in the second half and as good as that movie.Every detail has been taken care of and its a well made polished gem of a film.I saw it at PVR today in Matinee Show,it was almost houseful and everybody just loved the movie.Its very well written and dialogues are full of wit and humour and the rustic feel.Its a very enjoyable entertaining movie that tells the real life story of steeplechase champion Athlete Paan Singh Tomar and his transformation into a dreaded Chambal Dacoit.

Irrfan Khan has done a wonderful job here,his remarks many times bring smile on audience faces and make them laugh.His relation with his wife and his home life is depicted very realistically.The village locales or the vast barren Chambal locales are quite splendid.Director Tigmanshu Dhulia deftly directs this movie that traverse several decades and 3 Continents and also travels through jungles and valleys and cities of 3 Indian states.
