Analysis: ‘Sultan’ had already created a huge buzz before its release and all audience was eagerly waiting for the release of the movie. Ali Abbas Zafar’s ‘Sultan’ exceeds all expectations and wins the heart of all fans of Salman Khan. The story of Sultan Ali Khan, who dreams to make it big in life and Aarfa, the cute, bubbly female wrestler who aims at changing the rules of the society and earning her name in the world of wrestling manages to make the way straight to the hearts of the audience.

The locales of Haryana, the Haryanvi accent and the hard to act sincere fighting sequences all make- up for an entertaining movie. Though the movie is long and confusing at some ends but still, after all, it is a Salman Khan film, and obviously, the general rules of like and dislike do not apply to it. The heart- wrenching story which hits the note of emotions is a success at the box office as was earlier anticipated.

Star Performances: Salman Khan is definitely one of the most talented and profusely loved Bollywood star of all times. He delivers the most realistic and authentic performance as the wrestler Sultan. All parts of Sultan’s character, the rough and tough wrestler, the simple, sombre man, the romantic, the child- like person all are perfectly portrayed by Salman “Bhai”. He goes out of his comfort zone and delivers a brilliant performance making him all the more lovable.

Anushka Sharma Born in an army family to Col. AjayKumar and Ashim >> Read More... is the quintessential Haryanvi female who has decided to follow her dreams, pursue her aim and raise a voice against the patriarchal system in Haryana. She portrays the character of the wrestler with great ease and finesse. Anant Vidhath stands out in his performance as that of Sultan’s friend Govind, who sticks with him through thick and thin as a source of constant support.

What’s There: The visuals are a pleasure to watch. The Haryanvi field, as well as the wrestling grounds, all are displayed in the most realistic manner. There are moral lessons too apart from the entertainment part of the movie. The film incorporates the values of forgiveness, perseverance, and inner strength. The empowerment of women is also touched upon in the script. The songs written by Irshad Kamil are a great treat for the senses.

Verdict: ‘Sultan’, as expected, is a blockbuster and a must watch. The actors deliver brilliant work, and the entire team puts up a great show with sincere effort. For the festival of Eid, the movie is loads of fun and “Ghana” “Bhai” charm.
