Batwara 1947 is finally out in theatres. The movie witnessed multiple delays with reshoots, title change, and more. But Sunny Deol’s fans are now satisfied and rushing to the theatres to witness a new form of the actor once again. The reviews have arrived on social media.
Sunny is receiving a lot of praise for his performance along with Preity Zinta and Shabana Azmi. The same praise has been received by the supporting cast, including Abhimanyu Singh.
Netizens wrote that the action sequences are expected to be celebrated with a lot of claps and whistles, specifically at the single screens. Some even stated that the theme is expected to connect with every age group, bringing huge crowds to the multiplex.
Although the theme has been loved by people, a lot of issues have been pointed out at the same time. The major one has been the climax, where netizens have claimed that there is no action, which is usually expected in any film of Sunny Deol. The pacing has also received criticism, with people saying that certain sequences are expected to bring a boring feel.
A particular section has also called the film outdated, adding that the story and writing fails to connect with the audience. Some also wrote that the subject does not feel relatable, with others saying that it is expected to generate some controversy as it aims to change the perception of people about something in today’s time.
Talking about direction, people said that Rajkumar Santoshi has opted for old-fashioned treatment instead of bringing something new for the audience. People wrote that although the movie has tried its best to make audiences feel the pain of partition, the writing brings restrictions in that regard.
Overall, Batwara 1947 clearly has a lot of issues, as per the online reviews. But it will be interesting to see if Sunny Deol’s presence will help the movie to survive in theatres for a long time.
