Baby Review

Indian cinema is over-clogged with action and romantic movies or both. They just realise on high budget action sequences or sizzling dance numbers. But Neeraj Pandey's Baby was I guess the only mainstream in Indian cinema that did not rely on either. It rather relied on thrill, and for a change it was great. It reminded me of Argo, butt for most of the Indian crowd it was something new and fresh.

Starring Akshay Kumar, Ranna Duggubati and Taapsee Pannu, movie followed the story of the story of secret project Baby after 26/11 which was started to stop terrorist organisation into India. Akshay was in the role of Ajay Rajput, a selfless undercover agent who would do anything for his nation.The story takes you many beautiful places. Nepal, Istanbul, Abu Dhabi and obviously India. I loved the direction of the movie. It showed the beauty of the places. The majestic deserts in Abu Dhabi or the clam ness in Nepal, the movie captured it all.

The movie had some issues, perhaps that the time did not progress same for everyone in the movie. And it borrowed a lot from Argo. But despite everything it was delivered well, acted well and directed well. It felt that Indian cinema could hope for much more in this thriller genre.
