Aiyaary Movie Review (3/5⭐️⭐️⭐️)


Neeraj Pandey directed film Aiyaari has finally released. The long wait is over now as the film releases. The trailers of this film were very promising but the movie was not as great as expected. The story revolves around two stubborn army officers justifying their respective paths of action. The main leads are played by Manoj Bajpayee and Sidharth Malhotra. In a time when people are pressed for time, this movie goes on for a complete three hours. However, it keeps you glued to your seats for most of the time.

Manoj Bajpai playes Colonel Abhay Singh who mentors Major Jai Bakshi played by Sidharth Malhotra. Due to differing perspectives, they choose different paths. There is a small romantic angle in the movie but mostly it is the tom and jerry chase between Abhay Singh and Jai Bakshi that captivates the audience.

The film has been edited and directed very well and none of the scenes appear to be unnecessary. The plot is complex and involves multiple stories within the big story. The star cast is amazing as actors such as Anupam Kher and Naseeruddin Shah are a part of the film. When you see such actors, you hope to see them more in the movie, but unfortunately, they have a very small role. It was disappointing to see such legendary actors being casted for such a small role although their presence is felt even if they appear on the screen only for a while.

This movie is definitely a comeback for Manoj Bajpai, who has not got his share of fame despite being an amazing actor. He is the star in this film and steals all your attention. Sidharth has done a great job as well but I was amazed at the way Manoj Bajpai has delivered. Manoj Bajpai is a great actor and has proved himself many times. In this movie, Bajpai is the show stopper. He plays his character with great art and by the end of the movie, Bajpai is the name that audience will encore for.

The direction was good and everyone plays their part well. The only downside to the film is the overly complicated story. If only they had focused on one issue instead of many issues, it would be a 5 star rated film.


Overall, it is a good film and I do recommend watching this movie for the thrilling aspect and for Manoj Bajpai. He creates a “Satya’s Bhiku Mhatre” effect once again.
