Anna (2016 film) Story Review Dialogue
Anna: Kisan Baburao Hazare is an Indian biographical film, directed and written by Shashank Udapurkar. It is based on the life of Indian social activist Anna Hazare.[1] Shashank Udapurkar, director of the film, himself would be playing the titular character. The film also stars Tanishaa Mukerji, Govind Namdev, Sharat Saxena, Kishor Kadam, Daya Shankar Pandey, Ankit (Sourabh) Sharma etc. in supporting roles. The film is slated to release on 14 October 2016.
STORY: In 2011, India woke up to a mass movement supporting the Jan Lokpal Bill. Leading the movement was the septuagenarian social activist, Anna Hazare, a name that inspired lakhs of people to stand up against corrupt practices in the country. The film traces Anna’s life and the hardships he endured.
ANNA, a biopic on Anna Hazare is scheduled to release in 14th October with a star cast of Govind Namdeo and Rajit kapoor among others. Anna Hazare has been agitating for social causes for a long time. If it is not against illicit liquor then it is for farmer’s cause or some other social cause. But it was the agitation toward the end of UPA’s second term amidst economic turmoil and waning government credibility that Anna found his spot in the limelight.
The first half of the film depicts the early life of Kisan Baburao Hazare and creates a backdrop of the thoughts and ideals of the man. Anna Hazare has no doubt become the most famous, if not always revered, social activist of our times. Although he has been fighting for one cause or other, his moment in the limelight is tied with the likes of Kiran bedi, Arvind Kejriwal and others.
The absence of all these important characters in the movie as it culminates into the struggle for Lok Janpal bill in Delhi is curious. The movie shows multiple facets of this man, but fails to inspire the audiences or make them feel any emotion through all the proceedings. In an unashamed attempt to make him a Hero, the movie loses the essence of the real man who has fought for many over the years.
