Salaar: Part 1 - Ceasefire

2023 · PinkVilla · Dec 2023

The film is definitely a cinephile's paradise, with the visuals acting as an early Christmas present. The world building in Salaar is absolutely fantastic, with the lifestyle, rules and regulations, politics, religion, rituals, beliefs, and many more being successfully conveyed to the audience. However, the biggest drawback of the film is its runtime, with several slow-motion sequences that make scenes feel dragged out.
