Maratha history gets the full-on
Sanjay Leela Bhansali treatment in
Bajirao Mastani.
The overwrought but impressive
extravaganza elevates the legendary
18th century warrior-hero determined
to establish Hindu rule across the
subcontinent to the level of a selfless
crusader for love in a climate of hate
and bigotry.
Bhansali fictionalizes several of
Bajirao's key battles but focuses more
on the married Peshwa's passion for
Mastani, the beautiful and courageous
half Rajput, half-Muslim princess of
Bundelkhand.
Every emotion in the film - be it love,
longing or valour on the battlefield - is
translated into a grand and elaborate
song-and-dance routine.
A couple of the musical set pieces do
not ring true in a historical epic about a
man whose place in history is primarily
as an unvanquished general. Read more @: Bajirao Mastani Movie Review - NDTV Movies .. Film got 3 star Ratings :tup ..
