PLOT :


Jassi(Ajay Devgan) lives in London and works part time. One fine day he receives a letter form India stating that his ancestral property is up for sale. Jassi decides to go to India and take care of his property deal. On the other hand Billu(Sanjy Dutt), is a land lord in Punjab who is eagerly waiting for any one from the Randhawa family so that he can take his revenge for his brother’s death.

On landing in his native place Jassi bumps into Billu and accompanies him to his house as a guest. Now to his utter surprise, Billu comes to know that Jassi is one the members of Randhawa family, for whom he was eagerly waiting for the past 20 years. A fuming Billu rages to kill Jassi, but suddenly stops because of his age old tradition of not causing any bloodshed in the house. Finally, he decides to wait for Jassi to come out, so that he can complete his revenge. Now what happens to Jassi, who is unaware of this tricky situation? Does he come out of the house? and Whether Billu succeeds in taking his revenge? That forms the rest of the story.

PLUS POINTS : 

Ajay Devgan has chosen a very interesting film from the south, and has beautifully set it in Punjab. He once again proves what a versatile actor he is, and is excellent in the movie. Being a Punjabi himself, Ajay has portrayed this character to the best of his capabilities. He is particularly good in comedy scenes and packs a punch in the climax. Sanjay Dutt looks stunning and magnanimous as Billu the bad guy. His screen presence and comedy timing only makes this film more gripping. First half of the movie is highly entertaining with songs only adding to the excitement.

Sonkashi looks drop dead gorgeous and plays her part well. Scenes between Sanjay Dutt and Juhi Chawla are quite funny, and have also been written well. Mukul Dev and Vindu Dara Singh as Sanjay Dutt’s brothers are hilarious. The film has a total feel good effect right throughout. One liners mouthed by Sanjay Dutt are innovate and highly entertaining. Salman Khan’s cameo and special song is very peppy and foot tapping.

MINUS POINTS : 

The only drawback is the lengthy climax. It has been dragged out for no reason. There are some over the top situations in terms of fights and comedy. If they could have been slightly altered, SOS would have been more entertaining. The love track between Sonaksi and Ajay could have been a lot better.

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS : 

Scenes set in Punjab and the whole family atmosphere is showcased very entertainingly. The whole movie’s set up is lively and colorful. Songs in the movie are set to be a big bonus. All the four songs are superb and particularly Raja Rani and Bichdan. Cinematography is stunning and the locations chosen are also apt. Dialogues need a special mention. They have been written well, especially the ones written for Sanjay Dutt.

The whole Punjabi flavor has been reflected well in the costumes, dialogues and in locations. Screenplay is tight and so is the editing. Director Ashwini Dheer has stuck to the plot and never lets your attention wary. Songs, dance, music and entertainment this movie has everything. Though action has been over the top it has been stylized well.

VERDICT : 

On the whole, Son of Sardar is one film which has wholesome entertainment all over. Songs, comedy, action and romance this movie has everything. This movie brings back the age old formula of family entertainers bck in action. SOS is bound to do well everywhere, but particularly well in the northern belts of India. A perfect Diwali gift, go watch this film with your whole family and celebrate Diwali in Punjabi style.

RATING : 3.5/5
