its one of the best movie i have seen on politics .....wow........felt so patriotic ...breathtaking performances by Ajay Devgn, Amitabh ,karina ,Arjun Rampal...........must watch for a true Indian ... direction from Parkash Jha is outstanding. one can enjoy clapping from audiences . very eminent band of Jha kind of cinema is really a eye opener for common man it surely deserves a standing ovation. One would love to hear from Amitabh Ajay . high voltage political drama is the main USP of the entire plot . the burning questions shown in the movie forces audiences to think . its a movie which is so compelling that it bounds a spell and makes u numb .

Great star-cast, electrifying promos and a intense topic of corruption...all this leads you look at this movie with high expectations, but the fact is that satyagraha fails to do any kind of justice to the audience.Satyagraha is about the protest against corruption initiated by a group of people and is loosely based on Anna Hazare's movement against corruption... The title Satyagraha in itself enough to explain the magnanimosity of the movie, but that is where it fails to enhance.Given the idea of corruption, the writers and directors should have capitalized on the concept,instead they just managed to make it as cliché and banal as they possibly could... The movie, at no point whatsoever is even close in touching your emotions.Rather, emphasis is given on personal relations between the characters which you feel as if you are watching some daily serial.The plot has many loopholes...the movie begins on a high note and then goes literally nowhere from there onwards and after the movie you feel like what was the point of this all anyways? In view of the current scenario in India, movie based on corruption should try to raise anger among the viewers just like movies like nayak did...but as for Satyagraha-thumbs down... Script is disgusting, screenplay is going nowhere, background score is average, songs are childish and the dialogs are too old-school and unenergetic. As far as performances are concerned,Ajay Devgn and Amitabh Bachchan are not up to their best,Arjun Rampal is wasted, Kareena Kapoor is good in the first half and Amrita Rao is good,only Manoj Vajpai manages to impress as always... +points - intense topic and Manoj Vajpai's performance -points - 1. lack of neat execution 2. poor direction 3. pathetic dialogs 4. poor climax Disgusting narration - 1. Ajay Devgn starts a revolution simply...as if its a piece of cake. 2. Excessive use of twitter and face-book. 3. There has to be a romantic angle between Ajay and Kareena, no matter whatever they do. 4. The protagonists are themselves unaware of their actual motives. In short, Satyagraha is a movie which gives you high expectation in the first 15-20 minutes and then just betrays you till the very end...

This movie is simply a sad story from the beginning to the middle of it. I saw it yesterday and was forced to come out of the theatre just after 1 hour and 20 minutes to be precise. Looks like all of our directors are having nightmares in directing a good film .Just like RGV , Prakash Jha too has lost his touch. I was holding too much of expectations from this movie after seeing his last movie rajneeti which was slightly better than this one. I sometimes doubt if he is the same director who director who directed two of my all time favourites aparahan and gangajal. Well about this movie well what to say. You cannot make a movie successful just by good marketing. The movie has too many flaws and no entertainment basically.

Director (Prakash Jha) seems to be confusingly treading the path between fiction and non-fiction but achieves neither. Nevertheless , those who want a 2 hour interpretation of Anna's movement and had not followed it , may find it useful , treating the movie as non-fiction Historic Drama . Out of all the characters, Manoj Bajpai's (Balram Singh) is the best executed. Kareena's character (Yasmin Ahmed) is frivolous. A more in-depth analysis was expected for Amitabh's (Anna) and Ajay's (Arvind) character. The script needed to convey more than what met the eye through traditional media but it is just a 2 hours summary of TV reporting of last 2-3 years. In comparison, Madras Cafe, brings out a lot more than what was in Public domain earlier . The script also lacks a proper climax and logical end . But in spite of short comings , I would still rate it high as Movie does convey a message convincingly and logically and does have a Moral of the Story. It holds a mirror to the Voters of India , many of whom are still not convinced that corruption is a major issue in the country.

After the super successful political thriller 'Raajneeti', when Prakash Jha gave a confused 'Aarakshan', all were curious to know as to which side will his latest camel 'Satyagraha' sit. Sadly, the movie goes the latter way, though most of the ensemble and genre resemble the former one. Let's delve straight into its facets: Plot: The movie draws its name from Gandhian way of dissent which was used recently by Anna Hazare and gang. Yes, it does talk about Gandhian principals and tries its best to showcase the most contemporary topic 'corruption', yet fails to serve the message quite well. The basic problem is- treatment. Unlike the crisp 'Raajneeti', sluggish 'Satyagraha' keeps meandering throughout, trying to match Anna movement, literally. In the process, everything appears fake and characters look mere reel caricatures of the real. It attempts to take you through micro nuances of our rotten politico-administrative system, which finally lead to a macro movement. The intent is commendable; however, it's the content and presentation which falter. Realism gets lost in commercialism (lots of brand endorsements there!), larger-than-life portrayal of a ground-level subject and overdose of crowd-protests. Barring a few moments of real business, movie looks more preachy and glossy (facebooked). Climax is a big let-down out of its abruptness and fictional treatment. Casting: The ensemble of big names does not disappoint you when it comes to performance. Big B is a master at his work and exudes both strength and fragility with equal ease. It was good to see Ajay back to some serious stuff after his Himmatwala/ SoS phase, though he is unable to match his Gangajal feat. Kareena looks beautiful in the street-smart character. Hunk Arjun oozes ample masculinity while Amrita Rao is mostly on MMS mode. It's basically Manoj Bajpai who is the biggest saving grace with his comical villain-giri. Though his character is a shadow of Virendra Pratap of 'Rajneeti', he carries off this one too equally well. Music: In my previous reviews too, I have mentioned, in movies based on genuine subjects, music should be pushed to background only. 'Satyagraha' loses out here too. Unnecessary songs and persistent rock bands at movement-sthal, all steal authenticity from the flick. 'Janta rocks' makes you wonder whether you are watching a 'Rock on' while Adesh Srivastava fails to repeat a 'Mora piya' with 'Ras ke bhare'. Only 'Raghupati Raghav' manages to touch you both through the remixed music and meaningful lyrics. In all, music only interrupts the already snail- paced movie. To conclude, 'Satyagraha' does no justice to its name, star-cast and the noble message it intended to deliver. I really hope some other film-maker to grab the burning subject and present to us something more authentic, moving and engrossing. This one is certainly not the one expected from a Prakash Jha!

Well there is a scene in the movie where Manoj Bajpai (arguably the best performer of the movie) mocks Satyagraha movement of Mr Ambitabh Bacchan. He ridicules the protesters because of their corporate (read westernized) culture ,rock bands (hard to believe)and serving of eateries at a site of a hunger strike.The scene captures the essence of the movie which tries to be too serious about the topic but fails to stir an emotion in the audience. The actors don't have well defined roles ,songs are irrelevant ,cinematography below par (believe me I have stayed in Bhopal for more than two years and she has much better places to shoot than a couple of sets and educational institutions which are shot so many times that somewhere down the line you pray you were HANUMAN so that you can burn down those sets to ashes) and direction well Prakash Jha direction personifies his role in the movie (Watch out for the beggar in the crowd).The protesters in all the scenes seem to be more zealous than they actually should be ( to add some somber tone afterall we are not there to watch a Rohit Shetty film). The movie lacks any emotion and even the most heart breaking or heart aching ones leave you unaffected. On the acting front I would say Manoj Bajpai has done a decent job , Ajay Devgn is totally wasted , Karina seems more fashion conscious for a professional journalist and Amitabh Bachhan is more of an authoritarian (without violence) than a Gandhian.All in all the movie is a waste of time with a runtime of about 3 hours. Go outdoors or watch a repeat run on TV rather than wasting your time on this. 4/10.

May be Parakash Jha thought picking a sensitive subject like anti-corruption movement, signing few great actors, making them speechifying their dialogs, put some usual masala will be good enough to steer the audience in theaters. He did not realize, it would require a tense and dark atmosphere and well synchronized story telling to make the kind of impact that audience were expecting when they enter into the theaters on first day itself. Movie delves into too many issues and ends up finding no solution for anything. Obviously many scenes touch but disappointing thing is those scenes were having potential to tear you apart and it was never tried. The movie remains a dramatic presentation of Anna Hazaare Jan Lokpal Movement. Manoj Bajpayee is outstanding. Amitabh does not miss a beat. Ajay Devgn seems committed but not in top form. Amrita Rao is average. Kareena Kapoor is being wasted. Why she has to look best of herself in every scene? Romance between her and Ajay Devgn is forced and out of the context. I did expect some volcanic emotional eruptions and ended up lighting few more candles.
