It was an average one-time watch.
Positives:
1) it’s a visual spectacle
2) AB Sr. As soon as he enters the movie, it just elevates.
3) Music (Bgm and Songs)
4) SRK and Nagarjuna’s starry presence.
5) The sequence where all ashram people are practising their powers
6) Mouni Roy - best performance from the whole starcast
7) Infusing Indian Mythology
Negatives
1) the love story - no chemistry between Shiva & Isha. The love story didn’t make any sense either.
2) Dialogues - absolute worst
3) Unoriginal Story - copied from Harry Potter, Avengers, Percy Jackson, X-Men etc
4) Unconvincing performance from the leads - they have given better performances in other movies
5) love is stronger than Brahmastra after hyping the most powerful weapon so much?
6) No role for female lead. She is just a “button” for male character. Didn’t expect this from Ayan. He has written strong roles 4 female leads in the past
7) Inconsistent screenplay and tone of the movie.
To sum up, the movie would have been better if the love story was not there. The movie should have been more about Shiva and Guruji.
Still, it’s a decent one-time watch. Based on my theater experience, kids, teens and families are loving it. Should be a blockbuster.
