GANAPATH – A HERO IS BORN is about a man who is destined to do amazing things. It is the year 2070. Because of a big war, the people who are already poor have less money and resources. They reside in a place where wealthy people have power over the availability of food and water. The wealthy people live in the fancy Silver City. There is a man named Dalini who is in charge of this area and not much is known about him. His assistant, John (Ziad Baki), organizes boxing matches and makes money from the bets made by very wealthy people. Guddu is a guy who works for John, and he works with his uncle Kaizad and Senior. The second person strongly dislikes Guddu. One day, John asks Guddu to take his girlfriend Rosie to a nightclub because he is busy in a meeting. Rosie starts a physical altercation with Guddu. John catches them doing something wrong and then buries them underground while they are still alive. Fortunately, Guddu stays alive. Kaizad tells him to go to a place where poor people live in the mountains and meet Shiva (Rahman). Once Guddu sees Shiva, he needs to say 'Ganapath has arrived'. Guddu does what he is told to do. He encounters Shiva and his close friend Jassi (played by Kriti Sanon). Shiva cannot see, but Jassi is strong and fights skillfully. Guddu doesn't know it, but he is actually Ganapath, the person who will save the poor. This was predicted by a respected man named Amitabh Bachchan. However, Guddu is skilled at understanding fighters and their strengths and weaknesses, but he does not participate in physical fights himself. Shiva and Jassi want to teach him. What happens after this is what makes up the rest of the movie.




Vikas Bahl's story is predictable and reminds me of CHANDNI CHOWK TO CHINA [2009]. Vikas Bahl's screenplay is not interesting. Some parts of the movie are well planned, but they feel unoriginal. Vikas Bahl's dialogues are okay.

Vikas Bahl's directing is not very good. To acknowledge his work, he has dealt with some intense situations effectively. Guddu's change is also interesting to see. The argument during the break is worth it. The main actors have also been shown in a fashionable way.

Unfortunately, the movie has many flaws. The futuristic part could have been the unique selling point, but the creators did not succeed in doing it justice. The bad special effects make things worse in this situation. To make a movie about a person battling against unfairness, it's important for the viewers to feel sympathy for the people who are struggling and be amazed by the bravery of the main character. Both of these things are not present. Also, the surprise in the ending is extremely easy to foresee. One can easily guess it from far away.

Talking about performances, Tiger Shroff has never looked so attractive. He is doing very well. Kriti Sanon performs very well and looks very attractive. She appears very convincing when she is taking action. Amitabh Bachchan is rarely present and is doing well. Ziad Baki is a good person. Jameel Khan and Girish Kulkarni can be relied upon. Rahman is the unexpected standout in the movie. Elli AvrRam appears attractive, but she is intoxicated. Jess Liaudin (Tabahi) is extremely exaggerated. Shruthy Menon (also known as Shaina) is okay.

Songs are included and integrated smoothly into the story. Sara Zamana successfully signs up for a certain level, then continues with Jai Ganesha, Hum Aaye Hain, Lafda Kar De, and Time 2 Shine. Salim-Sulaiman's background music is okay.

Sudhakar Reddy Yakkanti's camera work is very tidy. Amit Ray and Subrata Chakrobarty's production design is not creative. The outfits made by Aki Narula, Sukriti Grover, and Akangshe Chopra are really nice. The ones worn by Tiger and Kriti are particularly cool. Tim Man and Vikram Dahiya's actions are fun to watch and not violent or bloody. After Studio, the special effects from Number 9 VFX and Maadfam Studios look cheap and unimpressive. Ritesh Soni's editing is suitable.

Overall, GANAPATH – A HERO IS BORN is not impressive because it has a repetitive story, bad visual effects, and a predictable second half. At the movie theater, the lack of excitement and high expenses will cause problems.
