In the first scene of AARAKSHAN, Deepak Kumar (Saif Ali Khan), while a college interview, made fun of because of his caste. He storms into the room, not before offending the interviewee and the film starts on a high note. But as the clock ticks, the graph of the film only to head south.

Prabhakar AARAKSHAN about Anand (Amitabh Bachchan), who was one of the pillars of private high school in Bhopal for over 30 years. Idealistic, believes in the merits of capital, yet is respectful of poor students who can not score a high score. Deepak is an incredible help Prabharkar, is in love with his daughter, Poorbi (Deepika Padukone). Sushant (Prateik) Poorbi is a good friend and studies in the college itself.

A comment in a newspaper in the Supreme Court order on reservation land in a difficult situation Prabhakar. He resigned to make way for interesting Mithilesh Singh (Manoj Bajpai), part of the institution, but focuses more on his private training course. Because of his evil plans, Prabhakar and his family are even forced to flee their homes. Prabhakar Can he regain his life, is what follows.




AARAKSHAN
Based on the social issue of the reserve Prakash Jha AARARSHAN has his heart in the right place. But it takes a long time to send the message that he lacks patience. The first half, despite taking a long time (two back-to-back songs) to get to the main plot is pretty good. Conflicts between the characters to do a show appeal. But after the break, Prakash loses its grip as the story just drags. It is laborious and repetitive search, the story moves at a snail's pace. The highlight is too good to be true and can not have a big impact. AARAKSHAN remember the last movie Prakash, Raajneeti, but does not match the subtlety and the drama of it. However, it has the potential to initiate a new debate on the issue of reservation, offering an alternative.

Music Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy is disappointing, since none of the songs is on the mark. Sachin Kumar Krishnan cinematography is fine. Santosh Mandal issue could have been a lot sharper.

Amitabh Bachchan offers exceptional performance and fits the role of T. Note the scene after he resigned and left the university. His eyes just said everything. This shows that hunger is still there. Saif Ali Khan, works well and makes her character believable. Deepika Padukone is decent. Manoj Bajpai plays the character perfectly negative selection. Prateik does wrong and has to improve a lot. Darshan Jariwala is good. Yashpal Sharma is efficient. Hema Malini Cameo makes little sense.

You do not lose much, if not "reserve" a place AARAKSHAN.

Rating: 2.5 / 5
