“A film made with good intentions but proved to be an anti-pollution lecture towards the end.”- A.T.M reviews,

A jatt who gets some superpowers through a tree and a villain who gets some superpowers through the same tree and their fight is what all about in this movie, and of course some not so great lectures on pollution at regular intervals towards the end.

The story revolves around a school martial art teacher (Tiger Shroff), a good for nothing guy who loves his mom and falls in love with a girl who basically enters the story from nowhere. Most of the first half of the film focuses on Amaan’s (Tiger) comedy, his family history and the love story between Amaan and Kriti (Jacqueline Fernandez).

A big business man Malhotra (Kay Kay Menon) who wants a bridge to be constructed on a river starting from a village to his factory, to reduce his cost of transportation. But what hinders this plan is a 200 year old sacred tree that is just on the point where the bridge has to be constructed.

Towards  the interval, a huge sized villain Raaka (Nathan Jones) is introduced. The villain is backed by Kay Kay Menon. When Raaka is hired to cut the tree at night Amaan coincidently comes across him and next a much expected fight scene while it is heavily raining is showed. Eventually, by god’s powers when both get in physical contact with the sacred tree, both attain super powers.

This is what leads to the opening of the actual story.

The major drawback of the film is that, by this moment the audience looses their interest from the film and even starts moving out of the theatre, this is an assured response of the audience from most of the theatres.

Like every movie Tiger Shroff, in this movie too is shown somewhere connected to martial arts but what impresses more are some specific scenes in the song ‘Toota Jo Kabhi Taara’ and Shraddha  Kapoor’s voice in the same song. But it’s advised not to expect anything more than this in the movie.

Being a Remo D’souza film, it was expected that the film would have some great dance moves but this film disappointed the viewers on that section too. Talking about special effects, the film fails miserably, visual effects of some scenes will probably haunt you at night.

Go and watch ‘A Flying Jatt’ for a good chapter on Pollution and nothing else.
