Waiting for the WOM. It does look very good though whatever is released so far. 😳

Kangana's acting skill is beyond any discussion. No surprise here. ⭐️

Just saw the movie .Terrific movie that leaves you enthralled and amazed at the end of the show .There are some flaws but that can easily be ignored for the overall product is first rate!

The start is rather slow however the story picks up momentum when the tragedy strikes and there is no looking back since the film packs so much right till the end .The scale of the film is huge and makers have left no stone unturned to give the film a grand look.Each and evry scene has been created with so much care .No wonder the film was in the making for so long.

Kangana roars like never before with a performance that is probably her best ever .Her performance is near perfect and she plays it with so much dignity .

On the flip side ,the songs are horrible! They should be deleted instantly for they act as a pace breaker .Also the editing could have been better with so many war scenes!

Overall a must see movie!

3.5/5

Glad you liked it

I am going tomorrow

Everyone is hailing Kangna's performance and I am glad, she nailed it as Rani Lakshmi Bai. They say that they didn't see Kangna, they saw Jhansi ki Rani on screen.

Imperfections are there in every movie, what matters is the movie can connect with the audience and strike a chord and so far based on reactions, many have come out saying that they liked it.

Very excited for tomorrow

Watched the movie. It was very long. Towards the end you want to smash hugh rose just so you and kangs can go home. I wish it had been edited better considering the scale and no. of events to be shown.

Kangana was just brilliant. Especially when she was in warrior mode. There comes a shot when some english soldiers have surrounded her child and the caretaker is trying to guard him and she jumps in. She just slaughters them like a tigress. There was a similar scene in bajirao...but this was about 200 times that. Just her lightning fast movements and the strength the skill...and the action choreography. They pan it to her standing tall like ma durga...and the hall erupted in applause.😃


All of kangana's fight scenes...even the playful one with tantiya and nana were exvellent...and the desolation in her eyes...the pain when her child dies and she chases after his dead body...it brought tears to my eyes. Even as a carefree girl dhe was mind blowing. Every walk every step she took when she went up to the gwalior fort...gold standard.

The movie vfx started off well. But there was some shoddy work in the last scene azaadi scream scene in the trailer. It just looked fake.

Ankita lokhande did what she had to...and she dances very well i must say.
Rest were rather one note...although jishu sengupta playing mani's supportive and progressive husband...was also quite good. I loved how the character was written considering his job was to mainly move the narrative forward and that too not for the whole movie.He was responsible, just and proud of his wife...extremely free thinking and they highlighted his love as well. I was actually sorry when he died...the graph of the character had made him achieve sympathy despite a broad stroke etched sideline figure kinda role. Kudos to the writer.⭐️


English soldiers and their dialogues 🤔.

Vijayi bhava and bharat rehna chahiye were nicely done. But some songs which played in the first half like when mani was being persuaded to marry were needless as well as rajaji song.

Sadashiv rao was okay okay. The scene between him and gangadhar was very well shot.

The sunday scene...the scene where scindia calls her laxmibehen...and the scene where hugh rose sees kali in his dream🤣 were funny and quite aptly inserted humour in the otherwise history booklike rigid narrative.

The sets and costumes...👏.


Film chale toh kangana ke wajah se chalegi. Bohut accha kiya.👍🏼 I literally saw laxmibai come alive today. The scene where she becomes a widow and the pain in losing her husband is burning her ...but she loses no time to declare her right to the throne as her son's regent...there was the mother, the wife and the queen all together. That scene is not something you forget easily. Just that one scene deserves a national award at the very least.👏

Everyone please go and see the movie, it is something that needs to be witnessed on a big screen
Made with so much heart, there were some flaws but the good parts make you swell with pride!
'Main rahoon ya na rahoon Bharat ye rehna chahiye' ...good composition!
In Rani's first confrontation with Gordon , kangana brings the transformation through her eyes, a queen who is dejected that her husband had to compromise but she refuses to do so.
Loved all the fight scenes, specially kangana's they were well choreographed.

It is safe to say, that atleast Kangana's leading performance, has been lauded heavily.

So PROUD OF MY GIRL!

She really needed to return with a "commercial performance after TWMR. Even though she was very good in Rangoon and brilliant in SIMRAN, those roles had very limited commercial appeal.

Hope she focuses on mass friendly movies for awhile. 👏

Revive Datto in TWM3. 😛
