Bajrangi Bhaijaan Plot:

We see people watching the India-Pakistan cricket match when the camera pans to a pregnant woman in Sultanpur village. Fast-forward six years and we see Shahida (Harshaali Malhotra) travel in Samjota express as her mother takes her to Nizamuddin Hazrat Ali in Delhi to pray for her daughter's condition.

On the way back, the girl misses her train which goes to Pakistan. Helpless Shahida comes across Pawan Kumar Chaturvedi (Salman Khan) who enters with the popular Selfie Le Le Re song. Since she can't speak, Salman tries a number of ways to find out about her, and during one such juncture, he starts to tell about his life story.

Here comes the flashback of Pawan, where his father calls him a zero. After the death of his father, he travels to Delhi to join the akhada of Dayanand since his father wanted him to do so. He then meets Rasika (Kareena Kapoor) and the two fall in love with each other.

Will Pawan be able to save Shahida and make her reach her home safely? Will he be able to prove his worth to Rasika's father? The answers form the crux of the story.

Bajrangi Bhaijaan truly has a good story that captures the emotion of both religion and cross-boundary tension in a balanced manner.

Performances:

Salman Khan really outdoes himself with this role of an innocent and simple man. Kareena Kapoor manages to make her presence felt with a small but pivotal role. Nawazuddin Siddiqui as usual ends up doing a fab job, but the true star performer of this movie is Harshaali who makes you laugh, cry and go through a range of emotions without a single dialogue and only expressions.

The chemistry Harshaali and Salman share is truly heart touching and something that can tear you up as well. But the humorous and enjoyable scenes between Nawaz and Salman are not to be missed as well.

Technicalities:

Kabir Khan has brought us a good movie with a great story, the right range of emotions and some amazing picturization. The only places that some might not like are the cheesy, over-the-board scenes that all may not enjoy as much. The script written by K.V. Vijayendra Prasad is flawless and it is this script that makes Bajrangi Bhaijaan the outstanding movie that it is.

Verdict:

Bajrangi Bhaijaan is one of Salman Khan's heartfelt performances where emotions strike the right chord; all thanks to Kabir Khan's superlative direction and enjoyable plot.

While the first half is simple, Salman makes it rather enjoyable. It is the second half that contains all the hilarious comedy and gets super entertaining. In simple words, it is a must watch movie! Don't miss it!
