Bollywood films are definitely making the rounds, even rivaling that of Hollywood movies. Indian movies are known for its intricate and elaborate production numbers, heavily charged acting, sensual gestures and controversial topics. The movie "Dangal" is something that lives up to this classic Bollywood movie tradition.
The movie "Dangal" which stars Bollywood great Amir Khan discusses family tradition to a whole new level. The movie is all about how former Indian national wrestling champion trains his two daughters to be national contenders. He then has to battle what many people think of his plans for his two daughters according to Hollywood Reporter.
India, though moving fast into modernity, still is a conservative nation altogether. There are still customs and traditions that are strictly followed and observed by everyone. The case of the national wrestling champion battles two customs and traditions. The movie "Dangal" presents these colorful and interesting nuances.
Living up to the tradition, it is but normal and traditional for the father to let his children continue his legacy. However, this legacy goes against the tradition of how an Indian woman should be. Indian ladies are expected to be feminine so being in the wrestling ring is something that not many Indians support in general.
As added by The Times of India, the critics gave the movie "Dangal" a 4.5 rating out of a possible five points. This is considered impressive considering the fact that the movie had to go through several critics who are meticulous with every aspect of the film production.
The movie "Dangal" does an impressive job in managing to engage the viewers with wrestling tournaments and bring patriotic emotions to the fore. The movie is even scored with its first-rate performances.
Actor, Aamir Khan should be well complimented for experimenting with his roles. He is considered to be different compared to his contemporaries who prefer to stay on the safe side. On the other side, Sakshi who played his wife in the movie did a superb job by acting restrained but still highly effective.
