The combination of Venkatesh and Trisha is enough to generate interest and also provide the recipe for success. The hit pair is back once again. This time it is with a remake film. Bodyguard is a remake of the Malayalam film. Let us see if the director has made any changes or remained loyal to the original story.

Story

The story begins with Tanikella Bharani, the owner of a private security firm sending Venkatadri (Venkatesh) to work as the Bodyguard of Prakash Raj. Venkatadri readily agrees as Prakash Raj had saved his life and that of his mother when they met with an accident during his childhood.

Venkatadri lands up in the village of Prakash Raj. Soon he learns that the real threat is not to Prakash Raj but his daughter Keerthi. Kota Srinivasa Rao and his son are after the life of Keerthi in order to take revenge for the death of Kota’s son.

Prakash Raj sends the Bodyguard to safeguard his daughter Keerthi who is studying in a college in the city. Swathi (Saloni) and Ali accompany Keerthi and Bodyguard. Keerthi cannot stand the Bodyguard following her all the time. She plays a prank on him in order to disturb him and hopes that this will keep him of her back. She keeps calling him up and telling him that she loves him.

Bodyguard is an innocent guy who believes that a girl is really in love with him. In a sudden twist, Keerthi starts loving the Bodyguard for his sincerity and honesty. She however does not reveal this to him and continues to call him in the name of ‘Bangaram’.

Venkatadri has the highest regard for Prakash Raj and so Keerthi is sure that he will never marry her if he learns that she is the one who has been calling him and proposing love. When Keerthi’s marriage is fixed with Subba Raju she has no other option but to take a firm decision. She plans to elope with Venkatadri but is not sure if he will agree.

Meanwhile Prakash Raj learns that Venkatadri is running away with his daughter but it is not the case as Venkatadri does not know the identity of the caller. What happens next? Will Keerthi elope with Venkatadri? Or will Prakash Raj kill Venkatadri. This is the suspense element that unfolds on the screen in the remaining part of the story.

Performance:

Venkatesh is cool and stylish. He does a perfect job. His comedy timing too is perfect. Trisha looks good and she makes a good pair with Venkatesh. The two come up with another winning performance. Saloni is okay. Ali is a little subdued. Prakash Raj and Kota are their usual self. Subba Raju, Tanikella Bharani and others have brief roles and they do justice to their roles.

Positive

Negative

Verdict

New Delhi The festival of Eid has once again proved to be lucky for Bollywood superstar Salman Khan whose new release Bodyguard has earned a record Rs 22 crore net as first day collections — surpassing blockbusters Dabangg and 3 Idiots.
The action-packed drama, in which Salman has teamed up with Kareena Kapoor, was released on Eid-ul-Fitr Wednesday. His Wanted and Dabangg too released on Eid in 2009 and 2010, respectively.
Bodyguard has not only surpassed first day collections of Singham (Rs 9.1 crore), Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara (Rs 8.15 crore), Delhi Belly (Rs 7.15 crore), Ready (Rs.13.5 crore) and Dum Maaro Dum (Rs 6.2 crore), it has also overtaken the box office earnings of Dabangg and 3 Idiots, which collected Rs 14.5 crore and Rs13 crore, respectively, on the first day.
The response to the film has been amazing. We had estimated the collection to be Rs 20 crore on the first day and it went on to be Rs 21.5-22 crore net, which are phenomenal figures for the first day,” Priti Shahani, chief strategy and marketing officer, Reliance Entertainment, told IANS.
“Salman, no doubt, is the biggest driving factor as he has a huge fan following. A good release date is extremely crucial on the theatrical side and Salman and Eid are indeed a lethal combo,” she added.
Made at an approximate budget of Rs 60 crore, the film released in India with 2,600 prints and 325 prints overseas. Shahani said they haven’t yet got the figures for overseas collection.
A Hindi-remake of the Malayalam film of the same name, Bodyguard has been directed by Siddique and co-produced by Salman’s brother-in-law Atul Agnihotri and Reliance Entertainment.
Shahani predicts that the film will cross the Rs 100-crore mark in the very first week.
“Looking at the unprecedented response to the film, ‘Bodyguard’ is likely to cross the Rs.100-crore mark in its first week,” she said.
With an extended weekend, multiplex owners are hoping to make good business.
“The opening has been nice, the occupancy has gone up to 80 per cent. People are liking the film. We are hoping for a good weekend and expect the occupancy to go up to 100 percent,” said Munish, managing director (marketing) of Satyam Cineplex.
Yogesh Raizada, of Waves Cinemas calls the film a treat for Salman fans.
“It’s a complete Salman Khan with lots of action and some comedy. People are enjoying the film. On the first day, the occupancy was around 80 to 90 per cent in the suburbs and in the NCR region. We hope an equally good response over the weekend,” he said.

Back in 2007 a British-Pakistani friend strongly recommended the film Khuda Ke Liye, which she watched with us. Having never seen a Lollywood film before, I recall being impressed with the production values, acting, music and concept. Now years on with the export of so many great Pakistani singers to Bollywood (Adnan Sami, Rahat Fateh Ali Khan, Atif Aslam) it was only natural to be watching a film where I’d seen the director’s first film and in which singer Atif Aslam makes his acting debut.

Bol (Speak up) is the second film written and directed by Shoaib Mansoor and has done extremely well in Pakistan. Like his first film, this is also a social commentary, which looks to reflect a slice of society, as well as challenge it.

Based in Lahore, it takes place in the house of a family of young girls and highlights the challenges and confrontations they have with their father, who continues to embody the contradictions of many religious values, which in turn accentuates the growing poverty, troubles and sufferings of the family.

The story focuses on Zainab, a daughter who always feels compelled by her logical reasoning and sense of justice to challenge the values her father holds dear. It’s an emotional film, which looks at some serious issues through the experiences of its characters.

From a film making perspective it is technically sound, made with high production values, great cinematography and framing – showing the diverse shades of Lahore city, from it’s Mughal architecture, to flashy shopping malls, to it’s inner-city lanes, to the open air of the paddy fields and villages, to even it’s red-light districts – throughout the film we witness some amazing shots.

Acting wise, if you’re going to see this as an Atif Aslam movie, it’s not. Which for me was actually quite refreshing, to choose not to have a big star take centre stage. Atif was portrayed as a regular middle-class guy, no heroisms or histrionics, a reserved performance, which whilst nothing to rave about, you could say that he did what was required of the role.

The real two stars of the film were Zainab (Humaima Malick) and her father Hakim Saab (Manzar Sehbai). A particular mention of the father, as he chronicled the emotions of a religiously timid character, to regressively patriarchal father and finally a menacing and hypocritical tyrant, convincingly and whilst making you loath him throughout the film.

I also have to make a special mention of the young actor who plays Zainab’s younger brother and Shafqat Cheema who played the ‘pimp’. While your heart went out to the brother, you couldn’t help but laugh along with the dialogues and comic moments of the pimp.

Music wise, it was again refreshing to see songs woven into the storyline and not typically lip-synched or choreographed song sequences. There were some soulful numbers and while I enjoyed the first Atif Aslam song of the movie (Hona Tha Pyaar) – which was a slow love ballad, he made up for it with the second track (Kaho – Aaj Bol Do), which was more what we’ve come to expect from the rock star singer.

From a script perspective the original premise of the film was amazing, essentially a story of a father, Hakim Saab, who longs for a son after the birth of seven daughters, but is blessed with a eunuch. There then follows a story of Shafqat Cheema and his courtesan, who blackmail Hakim Saab to father a daughter with the courtesan, played by a beautiful Iman Ali, in exchange for money. Both were interesting concepts – but as stories, could have been told in either two separate films or better interwoven into one narrative, here we have one story begin as the other ends.

Also, throw in a catalogue of just about every social issue available: poverty, education, women’s rights, pressures of child-bearing, dated interpretations of religion, inter-generational struggles, corruption, sectarian differences and it starts to make you think – was the director trying to get all his messages across in one go as he thought he wouldn’t get the chance again?

What results is a complex and uneven narrative, in which not one single issue is explored deeply enough. If he’d done justice to just one single issue, it would still have managed to retain the bold and gripping objective the film was aiming to achieve. Story pacing (152mins) and narrative slightly lets it down for me. However, I wouldn’t let this spoil what is still a very well made and honest film.

My conclusion: interesting and at times entertaining, but will test your emotions. A special mention to the beauty of the language used throughout the film and opportunity to see Lahore in its various manifestations. I’m all for supporting emerging cinema and believe in time we’ll be watching more and more films coming out of Pakistan, so would definitely encourage those interested in watching more meaningful cinema with a social message to give this a shot.
