Thugs Of Hindostan Analysis: 5 Things That Will Stop The Movie From Becoming A BLOCKBUSTER!

Aamir Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, Katrina Kaif & Fatima Sana Shaikh’s magnum opus, Thugs Of Hindostan, finally hit the big screens yesterday and has become Bollywood’s biggest opener till date. Sadly, despite the huge numbers at the box office, the reviews from the fans and media critics have not been much favourable for the Vijay Krishna Acharya directorial. Why? Here’s the answer to this question but mind you, there are spoilers! So read below at your very own risk!

Here are 5 Things that didn’t work out for Thugs Of Hindostan:

1. Half-baked script: The makers might have roped in a tremendous casting coup, but was that enough? Unnecessary elongation, all the ruckus that was being created – there was so much going on in the movie that the centre focus seemed to have suppressed. There are segments in the movie that have failed to pique our interest after a point because everything became so obvious.

2. Realistic Approach: Some of the segments and scenes in the movie are the kind which we wouldn’t even be able to imagine in our dreams! Fatima more than a thug, eventually seemed to be resembling Tarzan in the action scenes. The first scene shows the Indian king in ‘1795’ using a gun and the thugs using crossbow to kill the enemies and when those weapons could’ve been easily used in the climax, they opted for Aamir puting his life at risk and taking a leap of faith!
