                Sher Shivraj Movie Review: A fascinating however not altogether compelling retelling of the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj-Afzalkhan story

Two months after the arrival of his past movie, Pawankhind, chief Digpal Lanjekar has returned to unfurl the following part in his series of eight movies on Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, with Sher Shivraj.

The film is a sensational retelling of Shivaji Maharaj and his Maratha armed force's most memorable significant victory, at the Battle of Pratapgad, which additionally brought about the demise of Afzalkhan, the general of the Bijapur Sultanate's military. The account of Afzalkhan's oppression and his endeavor to kill Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj is notable. This section from Maratha history has tracked down its direction in various different undertakings before yet given Lanjekar's collection, clearly watching this unfurl on the big screen will bring an alternate encounter. On that front, the chief doesn't frustrate.

Chinmay Mandlekar plays dominated the part of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj and in this film as well, he brings his top game and stands apart among the gigantic star cast. Mukesh Rishi as Afzalkhan is another champion entertainer. He channels the fury of the person so well that it enrages you also. It's a threatening presentation from the carefully prepared entertainer. Different entertainers who sparkle are Sameer Dharmadhikari, Ajay Purkar, Mrinal Kulkarni, Vaibhav Mangle, Isha Keskar and Lanjekar himself in the job of Bahirji Naik. While certain scenes bank on an excessive amount of show and showy behaviors, these entertainers take the experience of watching this film a bit higher.

Simultaneously, when you know a story as well known as this, watching it unfurl over a range of more than two hours is somewhat extended. Lanjekar and group makes an honest effort to keep you engaged with the turns, fights and battles, entertainment and pounding ambient sound. In any case, everything that doesn't totally prevail with regards to holding your consideration all through. The embellishments merit full checks for exertion, yet not as much for artfulness - the scene where Shivaji Maharaj has a dream about Goddess Bhavani is a model why.

The melodies are great, especially Shivba Raja, which is arranged well and is strangely suggestive of the tune Sittharala Sirapadu from Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo.

Sher Shivraj: Swari Afzalkhan is a fair watch, however not as great an encounter as Pawankhind. Nonetheless, that doesn't detract from the way that this is a film that should be watched on the big screen for the air it makes. Concerning the downsides in this one, indeed, there's the following part which will bring the section of Shivaji Maharaj's tryst with Aurangzeb and the departure from Agra to the films one year from now.
