‘Akira’ first half movie review: Anurag Kashyap steals the show in the first half

AR Murugadoss’s ‘Akira‘ which is Sonakshi Sinha’s first woman-centric flick, has hit the screens today. It’s interval now and Anurag Kashyap steals the show as the corrupt ACP, in the first half.

Akira is a girl from Jodhpur who has shifted to Mumbai for higher studies. She unfortunately gets into a trouble due to the ACP. Murugadoss is known for making massy films which are high on content and whatever we have watched till now, we can surely say that ‘Akira’ is not an exception. However, there are a few technical issues in the film and it has a few things that are unrealistic. But, not to forget there are some edge of the seats moments too.

Sonakshi is quite good in the action sequences, but before interval Anurag has been given more scope. Konkona Sensharma too has been given less scope in first half, but she is damn impressive.

After interval we hope that Sonakshi has more to do and now, we can expect some hard hitting scenes in second half.

Watch this space for the whole review.
