'Satya Bol' is a hard-hitting cop film. The action scenes are good and this film will surely work well in the B & C centers. There is also an item number by Perizaad Zorabian to increase its mass appeal.
The film is about a cop's life, debutant Manish Singh, - his initiation into the police force and his transition from a meek, soft-hearted cop into a toughie. He gets married to a girl (Tina Parakh) of his mother's choice. All's well until she detects the change in her husband. The last straw is when she sees him beating up a criminal in a ruthless manner on the pavement. That's when she decides to walk out on him despite her pregnancy.
To trace our cop's story from the beginning, he starts by wanting to be the honest cop who does not accept any form of bribe. Circumstances force him to fall in to the temptation. The transition is gradual and mercifully there are no guilt pang shown unlike in other cop films. He is constantly ridiculed by his senior, Sayaji Shinde, for his meek nature.
One night in a drunken state he manages to convince the senior that he can extract information from a guy (an innocent guy really but who is mistaken by his senior to be a dreaded underworld guy' assistant) in the lockup. In a fit of rage, he kills the man. To cover up for it, the cops fake an encounter. However, Manish cannot get over his guilt of having killed the wrong person. His first brush with a gun toughens him up and he has no qualms in bashing up people henceforth. However, his altercation with his wife and his close friend, Alex's death makes him remorseful and he decides to quit the police force. There is a final encounter in the climax where he guns down a dreaded criminal and is honoured. There is a reunion with his estranged wife and all's well that ends well.
The film has a lot of great moments and well-executed scenes. To top it, there are brilliant performances especially from Sayaji Shinde. He is brilliant as the tough cop who shows streaks of soft-heartedness.
The main protagonist, Manish Singh, is good but his facial expressions suit his initial character more than the toughened cop. The slight streak of cruelty is missing in his eyes or face.
An extremely talented actor like Sachin Khedekar looks wasted.
This is a gripping film and credit surely goes to the talented director, Sanjay Upadhyay, who has finally made his debut on the big screen. The only hitch is the film should have come a little earlier when cop films were not so common. But all said and done, this one surely stands separate from the rest of the genre. There is nothing pretentious about it.
