Raid Review

Raid is a film directed by Rajkumar Gupta. After watching the trailer I felt I had to just watch this film as it was the comeback of Ajay Devgn to do something substantial. After watching, it felt like it ticked all the boxes for me.

Plot: Amay Patnaik, an IRS officer decides to raid the home of Rameshwar Singh, an MP in one of the longest raids in the history of India.

Story and direction: This film is written by Ritesh Shah who has written some good films in the recent times. The script is the strongest thing in this entire film. Being 128 minutes long the film never feels dragged and unnecessary. Some of the dialogues of this film are very good. The comedy in the film too is very subtle and doesn't go overboard. The story gives a chance for the lead characters to shine and that is the strongest point of the screenplay. Kudos to Rajkumar Gupta and team, for making this film see the light of the day. The feel of the 1980's is there in every shot and the editing is very crisp. But I did feel that some scenes felt unreal. Also some characters felt very under-utilized and felt that could have been explored more.

Performanes: Ajay Devgn is the star performer of the film. He is in a great spot and proves that good scripts will just enhance his performance. Illeana D'Cruz although doesn't have much of a role but does provide good support to Devgn's character. Saurabh Shukla proved to be a very competitive villain to Devgn's character. He was just perfect. Amit Sial gave a good performance too. Here I would like to specially mention Pushpa Joshi. Given the fact of her age and being a non-actor she does a very fine job.

Music: The songs are by Amit Trivedi and Tanishk Bagchi. Being a T-Series production, Itb was usual that there would be reused songs. Although the songs were good, they did have no impact on forwarding the film (Tanishk's songs). The other 2 songs were good and had a good impact especially 'Jhuk Na Paunga' that is played during the end credits. The BGM by Amit Trivedi was awesome.

Favorite Scene: It would be the one where Amay enters Tauji's home and says that he has come to perform a search and seizure operation in his house. The acting and the dialogues in that scene is what made this scene very unique.

Verdict: It was good to see Ajay Devgn do a quality film after many years. This film is very entertaining. Although not perfect, but I did have a good time watching this film.

I am going with an 8/10.

Story of the movie

Raid is that kind movie that directly go to the main point or event on the movie. Start with showing police that do levy ( gathering taxes from rich people). He is tall guy and with black hair and with brown skin. He is honest so tough on the rules he does not accept any bribe. He wants to perform the rules with every detail in every where even where he is with his wife. I am now going to talk about some point on the movie

Songs on the movie it is not good so if you are searching for movie with good movie this is not that kind. Although there is not much action on the movie there are some in the end but generally this movie is not action movie.

However this movie is mysterious movie but it isn't so complicated because at the beginning you know who's criminal and you know what the movie about the mystery part is where this man hidden his many due to avoid taxing to government .

Another part of the movie show love between wife and husband while job of husband jobs making thier life difficult but this is do not make effect on wife, she support her husband even when he looks like going to fail in his mission she does not have doubt about his husband.

In conclude raid is good movie , it deserves watching it because show dignity, honesty and loyalty a man for his job

Honesty & Persistance

Talk about timing. In the news as I watch this film was this: "A large hoard of cash has been found at the home of Sudan's ousted president Omar al-Bashir ...". India faces a similar problem in tax avoidance by conducting business in cash & hoarding it so that it can't be reported to the government. A couple of years ago India removed two lower currency notes (over 80% of transactions) because of tax avoidance. This film dramatizes & compiles into one raid some true past tax avoidance schemes. Now if only we could do the same in America corralling the wealthiest who use lobbyists, politicians (especially one notable politician famous for tax avoidance),tax shelters (especially unreported overseas),and deductions all resulting in wealthy individuals & corporations paying relatively/nearly nothing (or even nothing) for years. Addendum 5/8/19: Trump paid taxes for only two years between 1985-1994.
