Salman, Katrina excel in ‘Tiger Zinda Hai’

Salman Khan remains the king of the undefinable and unthinkable. ‘Tiger Zinda Hai’ (TZH) moves dramatically with speed and credit should be given to the director. The 165-minute- movie does not make you feel bored at any point of time.

The story is simple in which a group of 40 nurses are trapped by a strange coincidence in a hospital by the dreaded terrorist Abu Usman. Getting the nurses out from the den of the demon is a tough job and Tiger is called upon to do it.

Tiger agrees to the mission after showing some reluctance initially and together with his team, pulls off a daring rescue act. ‘Tiger Zinda Hai’ has grand visuals of a large-scale action film. The movie never really gets you bored and the director has kept in enough twists and turns in the movie to make it quite gripping.

Salman and Katrina Kaif have an excellent on-screen chemistry and the director has used it to the optimum level. The show stopper of course is Kumud Mishra in his small but well-defined role as one of Tiger’s comrades. ‘Tiger Zinda Hai’ has the usual patriotism masala and a message of brotherhood with the neighbourhood.

The movie, like every good watchable movie, has some very well-defined scenes – particularly the one where Tiger makes an entry and the one where Paresh Rawal and the Raw Rookie driving a massive oil tanker to where Tiger is fighting a pitched battle. ‘Tiger Zinda Hai’ is a good watch masala film for action lovers and pull the large number of crowds to the theatres.
