Joram Review: Earlier this year, we saw Manoj Bajpayee in Sirf Ek Bandaa Kaafi Hai. The actor's performance in the movie was applauded by one and all, and recently he also won an award for it. While Sirf Ek Bandaa Kaafi Hai was an OTT release, Bajpayee is now here with the Joram which will be hitting the big screens on 8th December. So, is the film worth your time and money? Find out in our review below...

Joram is about Dasru (Manoj Bajpayee) who is working as a labourer in under-construction building. He stays with his wife and a kid. One day, someone murders his wife, and police starts thinking that Dasru has done it. Dasru runs away with his daughter and how he tries to save himself from cops and some goons, forms the rest of the story...

The movie is written and directed by Devashish Makhija, and while after watching the trailer you might feel that it is just a survival thriller, it is actually more than that. Joram tries to give a very important message about our environment and society, and Makhija wonderfully gets that on the big screens.

A lot of times it happens that movies like Joram are given tags like it's an 'arty film'. However, Makhija has directed it in a proper thriller manner that it will keep you on the edge of the seat to know what will happen next and if Dasru will be able to save himself or not. While the film is very interesting and intriguing in most of the parts, in some scenes the pace becomes slow and that is something that disappoint a bit.

However, what takes to movie a notch higher is the fantastic performance of Manoj Bajpayee. He is undoubtedly one of the most talented actors we have in the industry, and he once again proves that. Bajpayee should win awards for his performance in the movie. Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub is also very good in his role, and leaves a mark. Tannishtha Chatterjee is good in her small role. But, apart from Bajpayee, one actor, who grabs our attention the most, is Smita Tambe. The actress plays a negative role in the movie and she has done an amazing job.

The music of Joram is decent, and suits the film's theme. It is a not a musical film, so of course, we can't expect some chartbusters song in it.

Overall, Joram is a fantastic film with some amazing performances and a very thought-provoking message. After Taandav and Bhonsle, Bajpayee and Makhija have surely done a hat-trick of making fantastic films together.
