The action dramas, since decades, stand triumph for stimulating the spectators to witness it. However, it’s the finale episode in the theatres that decides the fate of the flick. More than a month ago, the superhero Krissh did amaze us with its jaw-dropping action sequences.
The welcomed franchisee roped in a new fashion in Indian cinema and gifted us our first India superhero. Dhoom, which kicked off on a revolutionary note, also became a victorious franchisee with a new trend of anti-heroes. Adding one more feather in the cap, the writer-turned-director Vijay Krishna Acharya shoulders the responsibility to thrill its audience who are craving for more with its latest installment.
Acharya who faced disappointment with his directorial debut Tashan, balances himself well with Dhoom 3. The director gives a varied dimension to the flick by keeping the core- run and chase element- intact. While in the earlier two we came across roughly out an out cons, the latest offers a dark and emotional link to our protagonist.
Jackie Shroff is a magnificent magician in a Chicago Circus as he takes his young son Sahir under his wings and teaches him few tricks. Sahir learns them and assists his father who is soon murdered by the members there.
Sahir (now Aamir Khan) grows older with a fire of revenge within him. He now runs the same circus along with Aaliya (Katrina Kaif). During the course he plans to rob all the money of the circus owners who deposited it in the Chicago bank. And to stop him ACP Jai Dixit (Abhishek Bachchan) and Ali Akbar (Uday Chopra) come in the picture.
Thereafter follows the same old formula of inability to catch the thief because of lack of evidences but it doesn’t dissect the interest into the flick.
Dhoom offers what you anticipate for. It possesses the zealous factor, which undeniably is immensely served throughout the two hour and fifty three minutes runtime. The intriguing robbing sequences and thunderous action stunts are enough to hold your breath.
Since Katrina never backs down from adding the required glamour quotient, Ali’s new found interest surprisingly comes as a breath of fresh air.
Writer-director Vijay’s screenplay is tight, which doesn’t bring in any non-essential plot to destroy the theme. The revengeful factor is rigorously employed and Aamir’s actions justify it.
You might get perturbed by running your subconscious into the scene where an entire team of cops are after Sahir, without getting a major hint. But we allow them to enjoy the cinematic liberty which isn’t exploited.
Aamir Khan’s anti-hero character grabs your attention like earlier protagonists did. He is clever and intelligent in his plans and his performance speaks louder.
Katrina Kaif plays her part extremely well. She displays the energy like never before while performing stunts and unusual dance and is simply adorable.
Abhishek Bachchan once again is a disciplined ACP. We feel sad that he is still not upgraded to the position, but there is an appraisal in his performance.
Uday Chopra’s trademark style is once again lovable. His chemistry with the new diva will surely tickle your funny bone.
Jackie Shroff is his limited appearance is good.
Music by Pritam once again is zealous. Undoubtedly Dhoom title track takes lead among all the other songs. And we guess that the craze for the album is going to soar up. Backgroud by Julius Packiam packs a solid punch with the thrilling stunts.
At last the flick stands by its words “The year will end with Dhoom”. Don’t miss it.
Movie Rating: 4/5
