Early Reviews For 'Sarkar Raj' and 'Aamir' positive


A lot of pressure was put on Ram Gopal Varma after the debacle of Ram Gopal Varma Ki Aag (29%). Also, Varma was creating a sequel to one of his most critically acclaimed films to date, Sarkar. Sarkar was the fourth best review film of 2005 with a 69% (for all reviews for Sarkar, click here). Of the 34 reviews the original had received, 28 were positive, 5 average and only one was negative, so there was a lot of talk on whether the sequel can match the original. Early reviews indicate that Varma has delivered with Sarkar Raj. With four reviews already in for the film, it is already at a 70% , one percent better than the original and earning it a 'Very Good' tag consequently far. All four reviews have been positive with no negative reviews. Of course, that number could go up or down drastically over the next several days as more reviews come in, but it does appear that Sarkar Raj is a winner critically.

The thriller, which characters the debut of Rajeev Khandelwal, is already at a 65% which earns it a 'Good' tag so far. Of the four reviews in for the film so far, 3 have been positive and 1 has been negative. In Subhash Jha's appraisal of the film here at AllBollywood.com, Jha notes that the film "is by far one of the finest attempts in recent times to explore the psyche of a modern 'foreign-returned' Indian".
