Last Saturday I got a chance to see the latest Tollywood/Bollywood flick – Vishwaroopam. Firstly, after watching the trailers and reading about all the controversies around this film and most importantly the lead actor being Kamal Hasan, I was desperate to watch this one.

Some remarkable acting by the villian – Rahul Bose alias Omar. Vish’s wife is a dumb Nuclear Oncologist who in the whole movie does nothing but doubts Vishwanath. The movie is all about how Vishwanath tries to stop Omar from creating a nuclear havoc in the U.S.
The things I liked in the movie were:
- First of all the plot that is based in Afghanistan and talks about the terror activities and Taliban and all. I loved this one.
- The stunts / actions in the movie were practical. No useless or super-natural stunts(no Rajni Sir kindof stunts)
- Realistic story and plot – I mean at no point in the movie you would feel like “Cumon this doesn’t happen in real life”
Also, I(no intentions of harming any individual’s or a group’s sentiments) found no scene that would harm the sentiments of any group.
But nevertheless, the movie was a great one. I rarely watch movies, and choose to watch only the ones that have some hatke stories. My last few films include the likes of Guzaarish and Talaash.
All in all a great must watch for all !!
