"Maalik" Movie [2025] : Review

 "Maalik" Movie [2025] : Review

Some part of movie was prepared with good research. But, every movie involving crime now has boring words which now look artificial.

The song with actress and Rajkumar Rao was not even needed and entire conversations with wife of Rajkumar Rao was irritating. The only scene in which the wife of Rajkumarrao was needed was when she was killed. The scene of football match was also irritating unnecessary and looked like a burden. 

Prasenjit Chatterjee's role was good and some of the police constables played really good roles [especially the one dies in the end]. Saurabh Shukla performed well in some scenes before he was killed. Saurabh Sachdeva [Chandrashekhar] performed in an excellent manner. He did good acting and perhaps he did best acting. The character who played langda was also superb. Anshuman Pushkar also did great acting. Another person who was associated with Rajkumarrao also acted nicely with good expressions and genuinely spoken dialogues [he was also there in Gangs of Wasseypur as one of the killer of Pankaj Tripathi]. The person who played character of Balhar Singh got out of proportion scenes ; his dialogues were again boring because of badly written artificial writing. 

Another bad part of movie was the song playing in the background whenever Rajkumarrao goes to do any major killing. It reminded me of Shaktimaan song every time Shaktimaan used to fly/rotate.

The song in which Huma Qureshi performed was slow and despite good efforts by Huma Qureshi, it was slow and could not create ripples. Manushi Chillar should have been given dance song only without any dialogues in such a movie.

Lyrics of "Maalik" song with words like "heater, theatre, missed call" in a movie which is set in the year of 1990 in Allahabad sounds laughable.
