Ram Setu Review: After All Else Has Failed, Akshay Kumar Is Now The Saviour Of Gods

Sukhmani Waraich by Sukhmani Waraich
October 25, 2022
3 min read
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Whatsapp

There are bad films and then there are Akshay Kumar films that introduce the audience to a whole new low. We saw an example of this phenomenon in Samrat Prithviraj recently, and now, we see this abysmal level of filmmaking in Ram Setu as well. In its entirety, this film can be summed up as a lesson in “religious people good, all others bad…or at least misguided.” Directed by Abhishek Sharma, Ram Setu stars the saviour of humankind (and now gods) Akshay Kumar, Jacqueline Fernandes, Nushrratt Bharuccha, M Nassar, Satya Dev, and others.

An annoyingly predictable plotline

An evil shipping industrialist, Indrakant, is trying to break the Ram Setu for his own interests in collusion with other evil ministers of the Indian government. It is clearly established in the beginning that the evil government predates the current one. For obvious reasons, of course. Anyway, to negate the religious significance of the Ram Setu, Indrakant employs the services of Dr. Aryan Kulshreshtha (Akshay Kumar), an atheist and disgraced archaeologist. As the archaeologist begins to find proof that the Ram Setu was built during Lord Ram’s supposed time on earth and was not formed solely by nature, the evil industrialist plots to kill him in strife-ridden Sri Lanka.

Akshay Kumar’s character is as predictable as the rising of the sun. The poor, misguided scientist who believes only in facts is reformed through his own work to believe in the Ramayana. His journey from atheism to faith is, of course, supported by “facts” and encounters with gods. Since this is an Akshay Kumar film, there is a lot of action involved in which the protagonist, repeatedly, turns out to be the hero.

Nushrratt Bharuccha plays Gayatri, a history professor and Aryan’s religious wife who keeps telling him that faith should matter more than facts. She is, obviously, proven right. Jacqueline Fernandes plays Sandra, a Goan environmental scientist, whose makeup and unexplained American accent are always on point throughout the film. There isn’t much to say about the actors’ performances except that it makes Ram Setu even more unwatchable than it already was.

Ram Setu also offers some of the worst visual effects to ever come out of Bollywood and makes one realise the urgent need for some form of quality control in the studios. In certain instances, Ram Setu looks like an amateur production by students of a film school. And not even the kind that would score top grades. Science goes for a complete toss in this overly simplistic attempt at making a desi Indiana Jones that appeals to the religious propaganda-driven politics in the country today. In case you have any doubt about the purpose behind Ram Setu, the contrast in the soundtrack should be enough to convince you. When the archaeologist is in Afghanistan or Pakistan, the music is unmistakably the kind that is supposed to scare you. And the scenes at Ram Setu or other related sites are set to inspirational, god-will-save-you tunes.

A boring, chaotic mess of a film

We don’t know what the filmmakers of Ram Setu wanted to achieve, but what they have produced is a jumble of Iron Man, Indiana Jones, and Akshay Kumar’s endless god complex. Watching Ram Setu makes one feel that they wrote a script and included broad plot points but lost interest while developing it. And the poorly disguised nickname and characteristics of the man who saves the scientists and guides them to the truth of Ram Setu just add to the thoughtlessness of this film.

The team of Ram Setu played it smart by releasing this film the day after Diwali when religious sentiments are still on a high. This move is perhaps Ram Setu‘s only hope because, on a normal Friday, this painfully slow cringe fest would have been laughed out of the theatres.

#EveOfTheMoment: @poojakawatra shares her story with us

When my son was born, I was ecstatic. There was a new addition to our family, which brought us a lot of joy.

But after I got back to work, post my maternity leave, I started feeling exhausted. I was losing a lot of weight and had a persistent cough. Initially, I chalked it up to post-pregnancy changes, but the doctors diagnosed it as tuberculosis.

Despite getting treatment for it, the cough continued. So, on my husband's insistence, we got some tests done. After a few X-rays, PET scans and a biopsy, I was diagnosed with stage 2 non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, a type of cancer that affects the lymph nodes and lymphatic system.

The news broke me. After all, no one is ever ready to hear that they have cancer. We had just started our family. My son, Aayan, was only nine months old, and everything looked uncertain.

We had to start chemotherapy immediately as the cancer was spreading rapidly. After the initial cycles, doctors found that the treatment was not working, and we had to change the chemo dosage.

I couldn't have gotten through the entire process without my husband. He held down the fort while I was in and out of the hospital and during my recovery, taking care of himself and our son.

Cancer, though scary, is not a disease that is stronger than we are. And that's the message I want to give to every person who is dealing with the disease.

The latest mystery-thriller to hit your screens is Gaslight, starring Sara Ali Khan, Chitrangada Singh, and Vikrant Massey. While the movie lives up to its name, its effectiveness is questionable. It tries to gaslight the audience into thinking it’s a great thriller when, in reality, it is just a bunch of scenes stitched together to attain peak boredom. Gaslight, though a regular cliched movie, had some potential. With a great cast, the movie should have been great. Unfortunately, it is let down by poor writing, which leads to ineffective performances. Here’s what we thought of Gaslight.

When talking about women empowerment, we always think of something huge – sparking a revolution, starting a business, achieving something great. But what about the little things in life? The small things that make us feel like we have achieved something great. True empowerment is not really about the revolution, it is about the tiny steps every woman takes without any fear. It could be the fear of society, the fear of being alone, the fear of losing, or the fear of not being good enough. The women of All About Eve are talking about the little moments, the everyday moments in their lives when they felt the most empowered.

"So, bachche, have you performed the annual ritual of trying out all your summer clothes from last year and wondering how they all shrunk inside a suitcase? I know. It’s one of the biggest mysteries of the universe! Since we don’t have a solution to stop this unknown shrinkage, we need to figure out how to live with it. But we also can’t let last year’s gorgeous, expensive summer clothes get away with this crime. How dare they just…be small? So, I have figured out how to defeat shrinkage. Follow my tips, bachche. They are free, even though they should cost the same as a plot in Gurgaon. " - @theauntyeve

Starring Ajay Devgn and Tabu, action thriller Bholaa just released in the theatres. A remake of the Tamil film Kaithi, Bholaa is directed, produced, and headlined by Ajay Devgn. A pure masala, action flick, the movie doesn’t have a lot to offer beyond a whole lot of physics-defying action sequences and some poorly done CGI. Given that the movie stars actors like Tabu, Sanjay Mishra, Deepak Dobriyal, and Gajraj Rao, it doesn’t let you down with its performances. Read our review to know more about Bholaa.
