Sarkar alias Subhas Nagray( Bal Thackray?)(Amitabh Bachchan), is a person who helps the needy peoples who are left hopeless & dejected by the system and the circuit made to handle the system, the law of this democracy which is just on papers. There are so many peoples around who are innocent and runied by the stronger who mock over the system. But in the shadow of Subhas Nagray, such peoples find justice. Two dialogues especially underline this...
1) When a system collapses, rise of a power happens.
2) Subhas Nagray says: ’’ Main jo chahta hoon wohi karta hoon, chahe wo bhagwaan ke khilaaf ho, ya police ke khilaf ho, ya chahe poore system ke khilaaf.’’, and he wishes that all poeples around whom he see crying should be happy. There is no right nor wrong, but power through which he could keep them happy as he says once to his PA after hearing a rape case that ’’ Ye jo bhi hain inhe main nahi janta lekin ye zaroor chahunga ke inke chehre pe khushi aage se dikhe’’...and justice is done which is sold out in the democracy.
Few peoples don’t like his style of working and heavy politics runs behind the face of a drug mafia Rashid. The family of Sarkar is torned and even attempt is done to kill him inside the jail lock up. While the elder son vishnu turns to be in the anti group and tried to kill his dad, shankar( abhishek) arrives from a sobre boy to rough man role to do the saving and damage control, and even in the fight of power game he kills his own brother vishnu, who tried to kill his own father, Sarkar. And story goes on ahead.
5 best sceens which I liked: All sceens and frames of this movie are highly suggestive and instead of dialogues, have depended heavily over the facial expressions.
1) First order of Sarkar to give justice to the rape victim family.
2) The argument sceen between Sarkar and KK Menon, and when Sarkar asks him to leave the house immedietly.
3) When sarkar tells Rashid, that somebody has misguided you to come to me as you don’t know how I work. And I will not do you work neither will allow you to do your work.
4) When Abhishek finds to know thatSarkar is going to be killed inside lockup as commisisoner and high authoritis all are together to kill him. The slap sceen, and his escape from being killed by Rashid.
5) The best sceen is when Abhishek tells that he killed his brother. In the whole sceen only one line was said. I killed Bhaiyya. But watch the facial expressions in that sceen specially on the face of Amitabh, which shows first his suspecion, then shock, thereafter sinking for the loss of a son, and thereafter his hard face that whatever happened with him was correct and his order to Abhishek to eliminate the rest, by simply saying’’Ab?’’. It’s ultimate and highly suggestive. I bet not all can understand that sceen.
Why it’s unique piece of work from RGV
Sarkar is a certainly a movie which is only for poeples with some brain as almost every sceen of the movie is very suggestive and least of dialogues have been used. though dialogues are also very powerful.
The cameraman really did not give the actors any chance to eascape, as most of the shots have been taken in closeups as the huge use of facial expressins and eyes have been used.
Secondly, without any loud volume high melodrama and too much emotional drama, the sceens were achieved. It looked very real instead of filmi. Anger was shown with eyes, face only no lip service.
These all features make it a different kind of movie and 1st in it’s genre.
Direction of RGV stands out. Sarkar is highly non repetitive, non sterotyped movie with a stereotyped story. Editing has been nice and cinematography speaks!
And ceratinly Sarkar is much much different than Godfather, and much much closer to Balasaheb Thackray. I have become a Thackray’s fan after watching this movie.
I recommend this movie to all those who need some food for brain. It is simply outstanding work for thsoe peoples.
Kind request: Kindly don’t go with your kids and ’’Billo & Laajo’’ kind of wives, as they would be problem for you as well as for audiences who were tighttly gripped while watching the movie and pretty disturbed by ’’ Billo Laajo & Rajje’’. Plzzz.
