Sarvabhoma - film review
We
often see films based on jingoism and enmity from Prahar to
Pukar to Bhagath Singh to Sainika. Addition to the list is
Shivrajkumar starrer Sarvabhoma directed by Mahesh Sukadhare.
It is yet another effort on similar lines for director Sukadhare
of Sainika fame while Sarvabhoma is a challenging experience
for Shivarajkumar. When it comes to the movie as a whole,
its better to ask what is not there instead of asking what
is there in the film - Indo-Pak war, ill treated war prisoners,
conditions of Pakistan jails, stamp paper racket, church blast,
traitorous politicians, political connections of underworld
goons - the list goes on with added commercial 'masala'. Performance
of Shivarajkumar and Mayuri along with emotional yet powerful
dialogs by B.A. Madhu are the big plus of the film while background
score by Hamsalekha is the biggest negative factor.
Film
starts with the emotional attachments of mother Basanthi (Mayuri)
and son Jeeva (Shivarajkumar). And till the interval, it is
no different from any other Shivarajkumar movies. Major twist
starts when Subhash (Shivarajkumar) enters the scene. 'An
anti-nationalist has no rights to live' is the principle of
Subhash - a war captive soldier. While 'mother is everything.
I slog for the one who saved her life' is the philosophy of
the son who becomes a puppet of criminals. Story takes turns
and twists. Director surprises you now and then! Its Shivarajkumar
who steals the show in father's role. He has done a superb
job and at times reminds his legendary father Dr. Rajkumar.
He adapted a peculiar dialog delivery style and body language.
So is Mayuri in mother role. Though she is in coma most of
the time, its her silent expressions that talks! Amazing actress.
Director
Sukadhare makes it clear that the story is nested keeping
Shivarajkumar's image in mind. So there are unwanted fights
and dances impeding smooth flow. Lassie Shilpa Shivanand is
simply a waste. Apart from the leads, its Sharth Lohitashwa
as an apostate Home Minister, Capt. Deepak Divekar in Gen.Musharraf's
look alike and actor Sharan who makes an impact. Vikram -
son of Ravichandran has a small but effective role. Dialogs
by B.A. Madhu deserve a special mention but it is Hamsalekha
who spoiled the impact through his noisy background score.
Still is worth watching the movie.
