No competition between me and Mammootty : Mohanlal
Mohanlal and Mammootty are without any doubt the biggest superstars of Malayalam film industry. Over two decades, fans of both the actors have been arguing over who the better actor is and who the bigger star is. But all that doesn’t seem to affect the big Ms as they continue to amaze the audience with their stunning performances every now and then.
Recently, Mohanlal was asked whether there exists any competition between them, he said, “Healthy competition? There was never a competition between us. We have acted in 54 movies together. Chances of us competing for a movie now are also few because we have plenty of films.”
The actor said that both of them different spaces in the industry. He said, “Roles that come to Mammootty are not meant for me and vice versa. I would never say we have competed against each other unless we are acting in the same movie and are putting genius performances to outwit each other,”.
Director Rohit Shetty famous for his unique blend of comedy and action, has
re-discovered his mojo. Simmba, his new offering with Ranveer Singh in and
as Simmba has everything you expect from a Rohit Shetty film, perfect blend of action, romance, humour, drama and thrill.
Ranveer as Sangram Bhalerao aka Simmba is this over the top cop who wins you
with his charm. Though he openly declares his love for bribes, his innocence
and wit will compel you to secretly fall in love with this corrupt officer.
Bhalerao, a corrupt cop, is transferred from Shivgad (Singham's hometown) to
Miramar police station. He finds himself in a happy space with this transfer
and immediately is on his way to take charge. While Simmba is received with open arms by the whole team that includes Tawde
(Siddharth Jadhav) and Borkar (Vijay Patkar), there is one man -- Mohile,
played by the talented Ashutosh Rana, who doesn't seem to be happy with the new
senior.
On his entry into the Miramar police station, Simmba befriends the local goon
Durva Ranade (Sonu Sood) and promises to be his 'man' in return for money.
For a while, everything goes swimmingly, Simmba helping Durva bully people out
of their property while turning a blind eye to his drug-running. He also finds
time to fall for Shagun (Sara Ali Khan). Like all Shetty characters, Simmba is a cardboard creation, but in Singh’s
playing, his macho bluster has an underlying sweetness that renders it more
winsome than the humourless masculinity of Devgn’s Singham.
The film quickly comes apart when a couple of Aakruti’s students go missing.
Her search leads her to Durva’s drug-packing den, where she’s discovered by his
brothers. They first try and take her phone; when she fights back, they assault
and rape her. When Simmba visits her in hospital the next day, she’s barely
alive. He vows revenge on Durva and his brothers, changes his corrupt ways, and
that’s the rest of the film.
This is Shetty’s best work, a film of unflagging tempo with a genuinely
charismatic lead, and while the actual story — about a bad cop who starts
avenging rapes — isn’t interesting or original, Shetty keeps it entertaining,
albeit longer than it should be. We can debate the need for these throwback
films, and there is indeed a problem with the way rape is used as a trigger for
the leading man to turn good, but, as it stands, Simmba is not only ahead of
Singham, but far superior to Dabangg, the blockbuster that defines the genre.
But overall, Simmba is a potboiler that you expect it to be, where the good
surely outweighs the bad. There are enough paisa vasool moments
including the cameo by the original Singham, Ajay Devgn. And it doesn’t end
there. we’re teased with the glimpse of another hirsute alpha male joining
this franchise next year.
