Faraaz's stories -drug addict...?
Faraaz Review: This film is not easy, just understand this much, Faraaz's stories also talk about drugs.
There is a lion in the ghazal of Javed Saba, the poet of Pakistan, Life is passing, life is passing, without Nasheb but also without Faraj. Nasheb means slope and Faraj means ascent, to achieve something good in life or the peak. After understanding the meaning of the name 'Faraj' of director Hansal Mehta's new film, which is making a splash on OTT, you will understand this film better. But, both of them did not make any effort to explain to the audience before the release of the film 'Faraj' made in the jugalbandi of anubhav sinha and T-Series. The reason could be anything. There are two newcomers in the film. people have come to know about Aditya Rawal's attitude from his first film 'Bamfaad'. Hansal has named the film 'Faraj' after the character of Jehaan Kapoor, the other star of the film. Jahan is well known to the visitors of Mumbai's prithvi Theatre.Shashi Kapoor's grandson Jahaan Kapoor is making his bollywood debut with 'Faraj'. In the film, he played the role of prince Faraj Hussain of Bangladesh. Paresh Rawal's son Aditya Rawal has become a terrorist leader in the film. If seen, this film is in a way a showreel of both. Amazing job is done by both. It is not known who is nineteen and who is twenty-one. Excellent performance by both. Juhi Babbar has also done a wonderful job in the character of Faraj Hussain's mother. Danish Iqbal, seen in the role of police Commissioner, is also seen trying to impress the audience. The film looks a bit weak before the interval but in the second half, hansal mehta tries to pull things right and gets a lot of help from his cinematographer and music team.
Films like 'Faraj' are films derived from the same thinking under which producer-director anubhav sinha made 'Mulk'. It was 'Mulk' that re-established anubhav sinha in cinema as a sensitive and creative director who wants to forget the past and see the world through new glasses. hansal mehta has understood this long back. The film 'Faraj' is a confluence of the sensibilities of both, but it is very difficult in the changed environment to attract the audience to the theaters to watch such a film. The general audience is not able to get monotonous from the beginning to the end of this film, which is suitable for watching on OTT and that is because this film talks about ideology, not entertainment. And, this is the weakest link in this film
