Amitabh and Sharmila Two of the old school proving today that class and talent are evergreen, and that old is really gold This film is about a retired couple's fight to obtain justice for their murdered son. However, the true beauty of the film is not the story (which has been done before, but not in this exact way) or the dialogues (which are very well written). The true beauty of this film lies in the amazing performances of both Amitabh and Sharmila. Their chemistry is sensational, and one gets a feeling of great comfort from them, as if they truly are a couple who have seen life's ups and downs over 30years. The majority of the film is in flashback, with a narration given by John Abraham as their son(s ghost). He is also good in his limited role, as are the actress playing the daughter-in-law, and all the other supporting cast. Sunjay Dutt deserves a special mention-- he proves his acting skills are there when needed, and manages to give a brief cameo true emotional resonance But the film is carried by the two stars, and they do a stunning job. Let me recommend this movie very highly. There is a glaring flaw however-- the very clunkyly placed product placements. At certain points in the film, it felt as if we had gone to an add-break-- I understand the necessity, but did it really have to be so obvious. This truly irritated and at one point grated and almost destroyed the flow of emotion in the film. If you can make yourself ignore these placements, (or better still, buy it on DVD and fast-forward through them), then this film is otherwise almost flawless. I just wish the ending had been slightly less rushed. BTW this is the second Amitabh film in a month (the other is that other powerhouse movie Sarkar) that has no songs (completely unlike a Bollywood movie) and yet you never notice this till you sit down and think about it later on. The soundtrack is so good that this is one lack that is not missed. Any songs would completely have destroyed the flow of the movie, so well done Mr Manjrekar for that decision. all in all 9/10

I am a great admirer of Mahesh Manjrejar Movies. But Virrudh kind of disappoints me when it comes to the directors ability to show real world. I mean the story is very familiar when it comes to the Indians but i was expecting the directors to make it look very real and very touching which the director fails in doing. The film has some extremely good performances given by Mr Amitab Bachan and Sharmila Tagore Patudi, but fails to get that extra which would have done justice to the subject that the director chose. More importance was given to the before death story than the after death. Virrudh could have been made better!!

Its truly a Big B and Sharmila film.Mahesh Manjrekar is back with his good stocks after Astitva...The movie shows the struggle of an old man to justify his sons innocence to the society.Bachchan was superb.His expressions were splendid in each of the sequences.Sharmila is equally powerful,and both have shared a terrific on screen chemistry.Sanjay Dutt excels,though he got very less on screen time..Jhon was OK.. The only minus point of the movie is the climax..It could have been more twisted and realistic. One person is worth mentioning here is Amitabh Dayal..He was terrific. Some of the scenes which were well executed, 1) Amitabh Sharmila's conversations 2) Amitabh,Sharmila, Jhon and his wife together chatting at the bedroom. 3) Sanjay Dutt bashing the advocate. 4) Big B's conversation with Amitabh Dayal at the climax. 5) Big B pretending laughing at the park and bursts into tear. Go for the movie. You will like it. Sam

Strange mix in a movie. The acting of tabh bachan and sharmila was very good and the first half of the movie was a lot of fun (though substanceless). The story wasn't moving forward but was very humorous and the character development was nice. The concept of John Ab telling the movie was fresh. Interesting to see him doing the voice over instead of Ab, even though AB was in the movie. *** spoilers ahead *** I couldn't see the second part of the movie coming. After spending so much time making the movie funny and getting the audience happy and laughing why would the director suddenly make the movie such a big tear jerker :P! His choice i guess. Abruptly without any warning the movie turned 180 degree into a sad fest :(! Poor Sanjay Dutt got the short end in this movie - no character development or anything just a bit part role. How did he accept this role ? Also he looks very old now. Good Points: 1. Only 2 hours long 2. No songs throwing the movie off track 3. Great acting by AB and sharmila 4. John A looks better after each movie - making of a superstar. His voice is awesome too. Could not stand the blatant product placements though - there is one thing of showing a name brand but the actors were shown singing praises of reebok sweats, Elf motor oil, western union money transfer. Was shown in a cheap and crass way. Maybe the producers were not sure it will make money and thought they will recover money by putting adverts in the movie. All in all the movie is not a bad one and can be seen once.

Impressive performances by Big B and Sharmila Tagore are enough to make the movie worth a watch. The first half is good with quite a few light moments thrown in. The second half kinda spins the mood on it's head and become serious. A few characters in the movie have been wasted (like sharat saxena and prem chopra). Sharmila Tagore's on screen chemistry with Mr.Bachchan is excellent. John Abraham has done justice to his role. And newcomer Anusha Dandekar does a decent job with her screen time. Sanjay Dutt turns in a good performance with the limited role he had (with flashes of munna bhai appearing!!) Mahesh Manjerakar is at home with plots revolving around family and sentiments. If any flaws are to be pointed out...it can only be sed of the marginally illogical end. But anything else would have made the movie less acceptable to the movie going public. This movie once agen proves that Big B is indeed BIG.

Viruddh is a film that has interest for the star power in it. Big B, Sanjay Dutt, and John Abraham make out to be a perfect cast. That's why I got it and was not let down The first 45 minutes or so of this film is quite slow to the point you wonder if there will be a plot. It reminded me a LOT of another Amitabh/Abraham film Babuul which was really bad... but it turned out this slow beginning was just to get you hooked to the main characters. The husband/wife relationship played by Amitabh and Sharmila is at the heart of this film and without this intro film wouldn't have been as good but hold on through the dragging beginning because Viruddh surely picks up and becomes an incredible tale. I won't say much because I don't want to give away the plot (which would ruin the film). But I will say that this film is truly unforgettable. Acting is superb, story keeps you going, characters are excellent. One problem with Viruddh, not really a problem with the film but more of an annoyance was the RIDICULOUS product placement!!! Motor oil shot to the bottle an Sanjay pours it in a car but most hilarious was the WESTERN UNION scene that played no consequence to the film and was a scene added in where John Abraham essentially tells Amitabh just like in the commercials "hey Dad am sending you money, you can go to any location, etc. etc" wih a shot of Amitabh happily going to Western Union. I was cracking up!!! It distracts you from how real the film is... shameless!!! But forgivable because this film is great And if you like this film you should check out Big B's Family with Akshay Kumar. SImilar like plot and Amitabh's acting is far better. Both films are great. Enjoy!

"Viruddh" is a very unusual film in that it's like two totally different films. The first portion is lighthearted and fun--the second extremely sad and cynical. And, this final portion will do little to encourage tourism in India--particularly to Mumbai! When the film begins, Vidhyadar (Amitabh Bachchan) is sitting in a jail cell--refusing to eat. The police inspector says he feels guilt every time Vidhyadar comes to his office or looks at him. Why? What immediately follows is NOT an explanation of this short prologue but instead is a surprisingly warm and lighthearted segment about Vidhyadar's life before some incident occurred--and what that incident is you'll just have to wait to see. This sweet portion of the film concerns the man and his relationship with his wife. They obviously love each other and their life is quite predictable but nice. Their son, Amal, lives lives in London and helps to support his retired parents. However, you know that Amal will soon die, as his ghost narrates portions of the movie! The film changes when Amal returns home for a visit. Surprisingly, he brings along his girlfriend, Jenny, and he's worried that his parents may not approve of this relationship. However, they all become fast friends and life is looking just fine. But, when Amal just happens to be in the wrong place soon after his marriage, he is murdered and everything is turned upside down. It isn't just because of the murder but because the savage killer is well-connected and his father's influence manages to completely subvert justice. It's the police themselves who not only help the killer escape justice but also to ruin Amal's reputation in order to get the murderer off for his crimes. Vidhyadar's faith in the system is destroyed and he then decides to take it upon himself to receive justice. What this is and how he does it is something you'll need to see for yourself. There is a lot to admire about the film. Bachchan's acting (as usual) is superb and it's easy to see why he's probably the most beloved and famous Bollywood actor today. His emotional range is astoundingly good. In fact, the acting is excellent all around. Also, the direction and production values are generally quite nice. The story is also very compelling and your heart breaks for the parents--as you feel really connected with them. On the other hand, there are a few problems which prevent an even higher score. The biggest is that the ending, while satisfying to watch, is awfully difficult to believe. I'll say no more--you just need to see it to know what I mean. Additionally, I think the use of slow-motion was a bit over-used. Still, a super-impressive film and one that cannot help but grab your heart. And a great example of an Indian film that is every bit as good as most of the films coming out of Hollywood. Also, for non-Indians, there needs to be a bit of an explanation for one small bit in the film. The father's attending a meeting where folks stand in the park just to laugh hysterically with their friends IS a real thing. Mira Nair shows this in her made for TV film "The Laughing Club of India" and these clubs have been promoted for good physical and emotional health.

Wow did I like this movie. I might even buy it. First of all, to see Sharmila Tagore acting after SO long (24 years, I think) is like watching a beautiful butterfly light on a nearby flower. She really hasn't lost it. She's amazing. And she and Amitabh still do the couple thing well. I can't really decide if he's better with Jaya or Sharmila. He's such a great actor, he can turn it on and off whenever the director says "action". The story is about an Indian boy who goes to a party, sees a woman shot, and decides to intervene. Huge mistake. The shooter is the son of the Home Minister, and before the struggle is over the, boy (Amar, son of Vidhya) has been fatally shot himself. He had JUST been properly married by his parents to Jenny, his love who is English. Of course the whole family and all its friends is totally convulsed, including Jenny who has seen her husband snatched away by death on the wedding day itself. Well, the whole rest of the movie is about the struggle of Vidhya to get justice for his dead son. It is narrated by the ghost of Amar (more ghosts, ghosts seem all over the place in Bollywood). The theme of the movie is that when powerful people commit heinous crimes, Justice becomes not only blind but deaf and cold-hearted. There are so many nice performances in this movie, its impossible to remember them all. Sanjay Dutt plays a mechanic who buys the building next to Vidhya's house and does noisy repair work when Vidhya and Sumi are taking an afternoon nap. There is a lot of conflict at first, but eventually they all become best friends. It becomes important to the plot. John Abraham. Man he is GREAT as the faithful and respectful son. I know this won't make him give up his "bad boy" persona, but now fans know he has two (or more) dimensions. Jenny is played by Anusha Dhandekar who did an item number in the Rahul Bose-Perizaad Zorabian movie Mumbai Matinée. Her English accent (assuming someone didn't dub the movie) gives me to believe she is NRI. In any case, she is bahut bahut cute! She reminds me of a more familiar actress but I can't think of whom. It is not a very musical movie, so don't expect that. It is a family drama and masala in the sense of laughter and tears all mixed together. Anyway, for Amitji, Sharmilaji, and John, I give it an 8/10. And here's hoping Sharmila is now "back in the saddle" for good. She can give her son a bit of competition.
