'Rann' is directed by Ram Gopal Varma. And he has come up with a point blank truthful situation and both his presentation and narrative are top notch.
Story:
The story is set on the backdrop of the channel wars and here is Vijay Malik (Amitabh) who owns a news channel 'India 24 X 7'. He believes in the moral code of responsibility towards society and his channel comes up with honest news and reporting. However, his son Jay (sudeep) thinks otherwise and for him, this is just a means of income. Then, there is Amreesh (mohnish) who is a staunch rival to Vijay and he has a channel 'Headlines 24' that is zooming high on TRPs. Jay wants to achieve that spot and in this process, the opposition party leader Mohan Pande (paresh rawal) comes into picture. He decides to use both the channels to bring down the government and get to power. What are the consequences of that and what happens to Vijay's integrity and what happens hereafter is to be seen on the screen.
Performance:
Amitabh has given another masterly performance and only he could do justice to that role, Sudeep is a stunner and he will go a long way in Bollywood. Mohnish Behl had substance and he did good, Suchitra was neat, Neetu looked hot and sensuous, Paresh Rawal was outstanding, Rajpal Yadav was hilarious. The others did their bit as required and contributed valuably to the film.
Music:
'Rann' music is composed by Dharmaraj Bhatt. For this movie background score was excellent but songs were poor.
Verdict: Average |  |
