at the beginning of the movie and ramgopal verma say that sarkar be his tribute to the godfather . this one feel more like an insult . it pal terribly in comparison to the coppola classic . although no one be expect ramgopal verma to fill coppola shoe and the movie do create a lot of expectation and buzz . amitabh bachchan play sarkar and a character automatically draw instant comparison to indian political party shiv sena supremo bal thackeray . abhishek bachchan play his son shankar who return from abroad and get catch up in sarkar politics at home . just like al pacino in the original godfather . a most bollywood fare and incident and character be overtly simplistic and devoid of any kind of solid foundation . quick phone call and sudden announcement turn the film from one direction to another . abishek take to mumbai murky underworld politics crime nexus like a duck take to water . amithab bachchan a sarkar be suppose to look magnificent and powerful and he just end up look old and clueless . most of his acting be center around constantly star at different thing around the movie set the actor in front of him and the floor or in some other random direction . however and kay kay performs exceedingly well a the wronged elder son vishnu . so do zakir hussain a rashid and the dubai base dope smuggler who want to get his footing in mumbai . this actor have awesome screen presence and can send chill down your spine with just the way he look . the moment he enter the screen and you want to run and hide under the bed . all it obvious flaw not withstand and the film do well at the box office . the buzz and the big star cast obviously help . also verma manages to hold your interest albeit mildly towards the late half of the film . he be actually make a sequel to this one which i be sure will be more of the same fare .
