FILM REVIEW NAAM SHABANA

Its Taapsee all the way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Film explores back story of Shabana Khan(Taapsee Pannu) who had an impressive cameo in movie Baby in 2015 had received much appreciation.Although Shabana lives a quiet existence with her single mother in Mumbai, attends college and kicks butt at karate classes with passion, she is no ordinary girl. Her stoical exterior reveals more than it hides about her alcoholic and wife-beater father’s devilish behaviour. She is also daring enough to take on any goonda who tries to mess with her. Her world comes crashing down when after getting proposed to by Jay on a dinner date, she encounters a bunch of disgustingly bad men who try to prove their might. She dares them, takes them on and loses her friend in the bargain. From then on begins her initiation into a secret agent’s gameplan, which she resolutely follows and begins to conform to all the rules led by the agents: mastermind Ranvir Singh (Manoj Bajpayee) and later by Om Prakash Shukla (Anupam Kher), Feroze Ali Khan (Dannny Denzongpa), Ajay Singh Rajput (Akshay Kumar) To be honest, I expected this to be really cheesy and unsophisticated,  in certain areas it  is. However, I must add that a female agent kicking butt can be thoroughly entertaining too. In some ways, it is also a lot more seriously entertaining than I initially gave it credit for Taapsee. Some scenes are out of the mind where the men (Manoj Bajpayee, Akshay (cameo) and other characters from Baby) are almost spoon-feeding Shabana to make her Supergirl. When viewed as a  film, Shabana has some definite merit.Straight away it reminds you how women are no longer helpless when teased by a bunch of drunken men; or when brushed against accidentally in crowded spaces. They have enough and more in their DNA to give back as good as they get.Taapsee delivers some knockout punches and is sincere enough. Manoj is brilliant, though he has just dialogue-baazi and . As for Akshay, he is happy to lend his magical presence and help in the girl power. So go ahead and salute his spirit and Taapsee.
2.5 Stars from my side. Story could have been more better
