    My review of Bhopal: A Prayer for Rain (2014) by bangreaayushi

    jyothimathur, 9 years ago
    A heart touching initative! The title of the movie has the exact thing to convey. The film is taken from the Bhopal gas tragedy that had taken place few years back. The movie has depicted the same thing. Rajpal Yadav’s performance stole hearts of millions. The film has a perfect amalgamation of the incidences and dialogues that are combined together. This is director’s Ravi Kumar’s second movie. Although the movie has heart touching story, but somewhere it failed to find the perfect solution for the problem that encountered while this gas incident. May be the director wanted something short and crisp. Then the film is insane in few scenes. The film’s music has added life to this film. If the writers could have worked a bit, then surely it would be much more pleasing and more intense. Few Hollywood actors have done justice with their roles but rest, the film has many potholes that fail to deliver the message perfectly. Cinematography is magical with good screenplay. The film’s set is also staggering. One last element not to be missed in the movie are those floating bodies which have been shown while the gas tragedy.
