For whatsover reasons, you cannot afford to ignore a Tigmanshu Dhulia movie. After winning acclodes with movies like Paan Singh Tomar, Saheb Biwi Gangster, Dhulia's new offering ADVERTISEMENT Bullet Raja merges power, politics, action and love, resulting in a heady cocktail that hits your mind.

 Featuring Saif Ali Khan, Sonakshi Sinha and Vidyut Jamwal, Bullet Raja is a hi-octane drama flick, set against the backdrop of Uttar Pradesh-based mafia while dealing with the political and industrial powers of the state. Like most of Dhulia's earlier films, Bullet Raja too is raw, unrefined, rustic and unique in it's own way. 

Bullet Raja: Movie Review Story: The story of Bullet Raja revolves around Raja Mishra, a commoner, who gets transformed into Bullett Raja - a notorious, care a damn attitude gangster. A faithful friend and a loyal lover, living life on his own terms, setting his own rules, commanding respect and fearing no one, Bullett Raja in his true inimitable style takes on the system that creates people like him in a compelling struggle for power and ambition. 

Mishra's character commands respect, but at the same time he makes sure he respects women. Although he is a gangster where he finds glory with guns, the movie also has for us some instances of romance between Saif and Sonakshi Sinha, who plays Mishra's love interest in the flick. This gangster has his lady love to whom he is very loyal.

What's Good?

Tigmanshu sets things up skillfully in the first hour. Like most of Dhulia's movie, Bullet Raja too boasts of some fiery and impactful dialogues, bringing a vital spark in the movie, that flows so effortlessly. Performances: As for Saif Ali Khan, you'll get to see a bit of Langda Tyagi in Bullet Raja. Saif's looks, his mannerisms, his body language, his overall behavioral pattern takes you by complete surprise in Bullet Raja. 

From a sophisticated charmer to a rustic gunda, Saif makes the audience believe him. Sonakshi Sinha looks beautiful, but she's again repetative. Sinha doesn't get to do much in the movie, while Vidyua Jamwal on the other hand, is just 'wow'. Verdict: Bullet Raja might not be Dhulia's finest work, but this one is worth one time watch. On the whole, apart from Dulia's midas touch, Bullet Raja works big time due to Saif's power-pack performance.
