CLASS OF '83 | Review

 


In the early 1980s, Bombay was invaded by underworld Dons’ strangle-hold, which was becoming very hard to break. Dozens of young men rendered jobless as a result of the ongoing mill strike, were being lured into joining local gangs, and the nexus between powerful politicians and criminal gang leaders made it hard for the police to weed out the problem. With this backdrop, the film follows an ideological cop turned trainer who moulds five cadets into encounter specialists.

Netflix original presents Class of ‘83 which is adapted from a book written by the leading crime journalist Hussain Zaidi named The Class of 83. It is an Indian Hindi language action crime drama film produced by Red Chillies Entertainment and directed by Atul Sabharwal. It tells the story of a hero policeman stunted to a punishment posting as the Dean of The Police Academy.

This film stars Bobby Deol, Anup Soni, Joy Sengupta, Viswajeet Pradhan, Hans Dev Sharma, Hitesh Bhojraj, Sameer Paranjape, Ninad Mahajani, Prithvik Pratap and Bhupendra Jadawat.

Yanked off the field for doing his job with more integrity than those in power would like him to, upright officer Vijay Singh (Bobby Deol) lands a ‘punishment posting’ as the Dean of the Police Training Centre in Nashik. Convinced that the only way to restore order in a flawed system is to fix it from the inside, he handpicks a clutch of bold young officers and trains them to bend the law in service of the larger good.

Inspired from real accounts of the city’s first encounter specialists, the film depicts how the officers shrewdly planned and executed hits while staying within the system and following all necessary protocols. But then it quickly slips into a predictable rise and fall and a rise in narrative with egos and corruption breaking up the friends, and a last ditch shot at redemption triggered by their mentor.

Social Parivartan | Changes in Society

Bhoot Kaal   (Past) Those were the days when girls used to confess their mother everything to further convince their father on the same. Whereas, boys directly convey to their father for anything they desire. Not only this, even the relation between a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was a prime debate at every home. As, mother of a son would ignite a terror in her own mind that her daughter-in-law migh t  snatch her son apart from her and took him far away. Vartamaan  (Present) Nowadays, boys use to take their mother as a medium to deliver every message to their father. While, girls speak out frankly to their father whatever they had dreamt of. And if we take a notice on today's modern era of relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, they are the best friends of each other. They share every ups and downs together, as if no other bond is greater to them in this world. Here , that individual man  ( either son or husband ) c ommon for both the ladie...

Reincarnation is True!!

Yes you read correctly. There is nothing wrong with the words. So, does it mean that the stories and news you heard about people remembering about their past lives and claiming to be someone else, someone famous from the past is true?!! NO! Reincarnation is true but not the way you think it is. You might have heard about the stories, mythologies, legends or some predictions in different religions across the world about certain beings or characters or Gods being reborn or resurrected. Almost every major religion has this belief of rebirth or reincarnation, for example in Hinduism, Buddhism and also in Christianity (the resurrection of Jesus Christ). But let’s not go into that part and go around the world searching for those people of myth. Instead, let’s see the logical part behind those stories and understand what might have led to the creation of this theory or belief and the stories around it. First, let’s understand what Hindus, Buddhists and other similar religions say about ...
