Not a bad attempt at all

From the trailer I thought this film had huge potential. The visual effects and setting looked great and watching Ajay Devgn and Saif Ali Khan go head to head was something that needed to be watched in the cinema in 3D.Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior is about the Battle of Sinhagad and depicts Tanhaji's mission to reclaim the Kondhana fortress from the cruel Udaybhan Rathore.I decided to watch this film in 3D to get the best experience possible. We get introduced to Tanhaji in a very impressive opening action sequence accompanied with his theme blaring out loud. It's an opening that gets you hyped for the rest of the film due to the great visual effects, 3D and Om Raut's direction. Whilst the film does have its problems, the entire film is still an entertaining watch.Ajay Devgn plays the brave Tanhaji Malusare to the best of his ability. The film portrays him as the perfect and righteous being that is loved by many and his fearless but heartwarming attitude is what makes us root for him. Kajol does a great job as Savitribai and her chemistry with Devgn works well. However, the most interesting of the lot is Saif Ali Khan's portrayal of Udaybhan. It felt so fulfilling seeing Khan in a project of this size as he never got the credit he deserved. Here Khan does a phenomenal job as he shows many sides to Udaybhan's character. There are aspects which make Udaybhan seem ruthless and some as playful. He definitely makes a lasting impression. The rest of the cast ranging from Sharad Kelkar to Luke Kenny also give good performances.The main problem I have with this film is its visual effects. There were times where it looked great and made the time period seem authentic and there were times where improvements could have been made. The inconsistentcy of the effects did take me out of the film a couple of times as I kept thinking to myself: "That looks fake". There were also some writing choices which felt unnecessary. During the final battle, there is emphasis put on one soldier which didn't have to be in the film. Whilst the music made each battle more impactful, I felt it was a bit too loud during some moments.This was not a bad attempt by any means. You can tell during the film that Om Raut and the rest of the team really cared about this film. If they spent extra time polishing some of the effects then this would be a solid experience overall.

Jai Bhavani Jai Shivaji

Tanhaji The Unsung Warrior review :Our school history textbooks have reduced most of our real valiant heroes to a footnote, Netaji (Bose) ho ya Tanhaji. Hence, whatever I knew about the great Maratha warrior Tanhaji Malusare was from Amar Chitra Katha (comics) I grew up on.Tanhaji was a trusted lieutenant of Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj who won the much coveted Kondhana fort from clutches of the evil Aurangzeb by using his pet ghorpad (monitor lizard) to scale the seemingly impregnable fort and sacrificed his life to conquer it.The film delves deeper in to this incident and highlights the Maratha valour which we saw recently in Ashutosh Gowariker's sincere take on the third battle of Panipat (2019). And ofcourse, Bal Shivaji (1982) which I saw and admired as a school kid. After all, Maratha period is a slice of history more potent and pertinent today than Emperor Jehangir's fictional love story called Mughal E Azam (1960) or the highly distorted Jodhaa Akbar (2008) - two films lapped up by the then paying audience.Tanhaji commences with the brave warrior origins, goes on to explore his brotherly bonding with Chatrapati Shivaji and then proceeds to narrate the fate of Kondhana fort guarded by Udaybhan Singh for Aurangzeb. The strategic fort is the key to South India dominance and hence, needs to be recaptured. Tanhaji offers to help Shivaji Maharaj in this mission...Assuredly, two immortal lines - "Aadhi lagna Kondhanyacha mag majhya Raybaa cha (First we win Kondhana then marriage of my son Raybaa)" and "Gad aala pan sinha gela (We won the fort but lost the lion)" raise the required salute of honour and ceetis in the cinema halls.Director Om Raut shows flair for historicals after debuting with the well made Marathi film 'Lokmanya : Ek Yug Purush' (2015). With Tanhaji, he has got a bigger budget and made the best out of it. Truly, the VFX and 3D are one of the best seen in Bollywood. The battle scenes are brilliantly executed and Raut gives an interesting twist to the ghorpad angle.Of the cast, Ajay Devgn - Saif Ali Khan jodi works wonder yet again after their successful turn so far in Kachche Dhaage (1999) and Omkara (2006). They are simply outstanding in their roles. Kajol has a small role of Tanhaji's wife and nails it easy. Sharad Kelkar is convincing as Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj.Tanhaji is the first of the unsung heroes series which Ajay Devgn wants to develop as a franchise. It is a great initiative and something worth subscribing for. Watch Tanhaji today with kids in tow!Jai Bhavani. Jai Shivaji!!
