Movie Review: Indian
Starring:
Sunny Deol, Shilpa Shetty, Raj Babbar, Rahul Dev, Mukesh Rishi, Danny Denzongpa
Director:
N. Maharajan
Producer: Vijayata Films (Dharmendra, Sunny Deol)
Music: Anand Raj Anand
Lyrics: Anand Bakshi
 

After "Gadar", it is "Indian" to prove Sunny Deol's patriotism. Indian is about an honest and patriotic Police Commisioner Raj Shekhar Azad (Sunny Deol) and his fight against the evil. Raj is married to Anjali
(Shilpa Shetty) and has two kids. Raj's fight is primarily focussed at foiling Wasim Khan's (Mukesh Rishi's)

plans who is a dreaded terrorist. Wasim happens to be a part of the Lakshar -E-Jehadi group, a group feared all over the world. Raj manages to imprison Wasim Khan. But, even in the prison Wasim manages to plan destruction and succeeds in doing so. After continuous investigations, Raj discovers that many influential people of the society are backing the terrorist out of which DCP Surya Pratap Singh (Raj Babbar) and Shankar Singhania (Danny Denzongpa) are a few to name. Raj goes about destroying these people one by one and in his attempt of doing so he is

aided by four patriotic people who intend to join the police force. The corrupt DCP Surya Pratap Singh (Raj Babbar), happens to be Anjali's father and Raj's father-in-law. The twist in the story comes when Anjali discovers that it is Raj who has killed her father. She leaves Raj. Raj's unabated fight against evil continues and he goes about destroying these unfavourable elements with gusto. The film ends with good

reigning over evil. Raj's final battle is resolved after lot of difficulty.
 
Indian is a patriotic film and is Sunny Deol's home production. The film is written and directed by N. Maharajan. The illustrations in the film are straight
out of everday life. Sunny Deol's bravura performance also adds spice to
the film. The stunts are vibrant and will surely appeal to the Indian masses. Nevertheless, there are drawbacks in the film. The topic of fight of a police 

officer against terrorism has been witnessed time and again and hence this film has nothing fresh to offer. Moreover, the film lacks romance and light moments to balance it's seriousness. The length of the film too becomes another major drawback. Anand Raaj Anand's music is of mixed variety in this film, the popular numbers being "Deewana", " Jaana Maine Jaana" and "Thaat Nawabi". "Watan waalon" has rich lyrics.

Cinematography by A. Ramesh Kumar is quite good. Dialogues by Sanjay S. Masoom are eye-openers. Performance wise, Sunny Deol is the best. Danny is the second best and uplifts the film in the second half to an extent. Shilpa Shetty looks gorgeous and dances gracefully but has no significant role to play. Raj Babbar too is wasted. Mukesh Rishi is loud and Rahul Dev so-so. Shakti Kapoor has a very small role. The others are OK. On the whole, INDIAN will certainly appeal to majority of the masses. The fact that it released on the same date as that of Asoka

is a demerit but since there are no releases for the next two weeks Indian will plough on.
