Bolo Raam Hind Movie Review And Watch Online


Ramboesque Ram loves his mother, Padmini Kolhapure and is content living happily ever after with her. But one night, he's found lying beside her stabbed body, knife in hand. Did Ram kill his mother? He's not telling....

First things first. What's Naseeruddin Shah doing in Bolo Ram. He has such a dispensable role as a two-scene psychiatrist, it's almost a shame. Then again, what's Om Puri doing in Bolo Ram? He has such a poorly-etched routine cop act, he could almost sleepwalk through it. Also, doesn't Padmini Kolhapure deserve a better comeback film than one which relegates her to the status of a corpse after a one-dimensional screaming mom act? After all, she was one of our better actors in her heydey.
The trouble with Bolo Ram is it boasts of a great cast, then botches it up by focusing too much on a wooden Rishi Bhutani who can barely bring to life the character of the enigmatic, unpredictable son who might have killed his mother in a fit of rage. Ram (Rishi) is essentially supposed to be an overgrown babe who lives on the fringes of sane society. It would take very little for him to cross the fine line, but the actor fails to bring out this edgy feel. After a point, you simply get tired with his singular mournful look and lose all interest in what is supposed to be the million dollar query: did he do it or not?
Also, what's the jihadi angle doing in this film. It springs up from nowhere and completely convolutes the film with the subversive use of religious symbolism. Doesn't work.



Here is the link to watch the movie online. Just copy paste the link below.
