'Contract' is directed by Ram Gopal Varma. The director needs no rating as he is by far the best in the show business and though his presentation was good, the narration has turned out to be a disaster.
A beaten and worn out tale, the film begins with the Amaan (Adhvik) who is given a task by the police commissioner (Vibha Chibbar), he needs to get inside the underworld as a sleeper into the gang of the dreaded and powerful RD (Sumeet). The idea is to put an end to all the mayhem created by RD and his gang and added to that Amaan has his own personal scores to settle with the mafia.
There are characters like Iya (Sakshi), Ghoonga (Upyendra Limaye), his wife (Amruta Subhash) and others. Amaan slowly starts finding his way up the ladder in the underworld hierarchy and slowly gains the confidence of RD and his key henchmen. Once he gets to the established position, Amaan starts bumping off the baddies one after the other and as expected the news reaches RD. Soon, a showdown and what happens hereafter is to be seen on the screen.
Presentation:
The script was a mess, the screenplay was sensible, dialogues were dull, music was average, camera was good, editing was numb, the art and locations were natural and scenic. Adhvik has surely come across with some good performance and he fits the bill of the perfect Varma find but then he needs to work on his voice modulation a little more. Sakshi was pretty and though she looked soft she did her best to suit the tough role. Sumeet was excellent in his performance and so was Vibha who carried out the role of a cop perfectly. The real show stealer despite all the drawbacks was Prasad Purandare who came up with an exceptional performance. Amruta was boisterous and theatrical, Upyendra was effective. The others did their bit and contributed whatever they could to makethings better.
Verdict:Average |  |
