Bhoomi is an action drama revenge movie directed by Omung Kumar and stars Sanjay Dutt, Aditi Rao Hydari, Sharad Kelkar, Shekhar Suman, Riddhi Sen, Puru Chibber and Sidhant Gupta.
Whenever you hears or reads the name like Omung Kumar directing the movie with Sanjay Dutt, Sharad Kelkar and Shekhar Suman in the star cast you will be super thrilled and excited to watch the movie but in terms of this movie it's a huge let down.
The movie has a cliché plot with cliché screenplay and cliché dialogues. We have seen many similar movies in late 80s and early to mid 90s and it seems that the director was still not able to come out from that mode.
The story of the movie is a predictably boring in which a young independent woman is getting married to the man of her dreams and she is being gang raped by Male Chauvinist one sided lover who couldn't accept her rejection with his relatives. Her father tried to get justice with the help of court but fails, be decides to take control in his hands and this is when the typical bollywood masala comes into effect off course with a sleazy item song.
The movie is full of overdramatic melodrama which rather irritates instead of gaining sympathy such as the courtroom drama or the character assassination of the girl by putting his number on walls.
Acting apart from Sanjay Dutt and Sharad Kelkar is ineffective. Shekhar Suman is a tremendously talented actor but ended up being very loud in the character in the of the role of a guide and also the drunk best friend of Sanjay Dutt. Aditi was average and failed to put an impact or gain sympathy from the audience, rest all the characters were bad. Screenplay of the movie is predictably boring and you will realize that you have seen similar scenes and heard similar dialogues in many 80s and 90s movies. Cinematography is average. Songs are forgettable.
Climax of the movie is the most annoying and senseless part of the movie with lots of women throwing their dupatta on Kelkar who had fallen in a well. This was probably the most hilariously funny scenes of the movie and yes the audiences might also throw their patience by this time.
Overall Bhoomi is a very pale and botched up attempt to carry feminism and in my opinion a clearly avoidable movie.
