Revisiting Namak Haraam in a Naxlite setting. In India, Naxalite movement started as a revolt against the system-generated injustices heaped on the tribals in Naxalbari West Bengal four and a half decades back and then spread in various parts of our country. Still known by the same name and carrying the same slogan - Laal Salaam, this movement which is violent to the hilt has given birth to a few Bollywood movies.
Prakash Jha's Chakravyuh the lethal trap difficult to break is in the same league. Putting it straight, the story of Chakravyuh is not original. It's a lift from the classic movie of Hrishikesh Mukherjee - Namak Haraam starring two biggest superstars of Hindi cinema - Rajesh Khanna and Amitabh Bachchan in lead roles.
In Namak Haraam, one friend Rajesh Khanna infiltrates the workers by posing as one of them for the purpose of helping his industrialist friend Amitabh Bachchan and in due course of time, starts sympathizing with them.
Here the same story has been given the backdrop of Naxalite movement with Arjun Raampaal being the cop and a part of the system akin to Amitabh Bachchan in Namak Haraam and Abhay Deol being his helping friend infiltrating the Naxalites and ultimately switching over to their side akin to Rajesh Khanna in Namak Haraam.
The outcome turns out to be what it had to be - one of these two friends has to die and naturally, it is the one who joins the outlaws. Since the story is not original, I won't give any credit to the script-writers. However Prakash Jha has directed it very well. After a long long time since Apharan , I have seen him in full form, presenting an utterly realistic account of the things but in a gripping way without allowing even a second of boredom to the spectator.
The complete movie is an edge-of-the-seat thriller. Right from the very beginning to the very end, it keeps the audience engrossed. Just like the stories once written by Salim-Jaaved during the seventies and the early eighties, the story has been presented in such a way that the viewer does not get any chance to think while the movie is in progress and keeps on looking at the screen holding his breath.
He can think, analyze and assess only during the interval and after the ending. Prakash Jha has picturized everything in a highly realistic manner with taking minimum number of cinematic liberties.
Except the basic story idea, the movie appears nowhere as an imaginary story. The human aspect of the various people involved on both the sides and the different facets of the issue have been dealt with finesse and most of the scenes leave their mark on the heart of the viewer. Quite contrary to Red Alert, he has not come out with any solution to the problem but tried to see the things from a much closer point and succeeded.
Nobody is correct at every point of time and from every angle of this multi-faceted complex phenomena. From one angle, one is correct and from some other angle, the other is correct. The need of the hour is to have a holistic view of the phenomena and then a proper strategy is to be formulated to break this vicious trap or Chakravyuh. And Prakash Jha has established this fact with the level of proficiency we always expect from him. While referring to the real life incidents, he has adapted the story of Namak Haraam for this movie and presented a taut thriller.
A couple of scenes involving Kabir Bedi and his son are the only ones which appeared as somewhat over the top to me, nothing else. Bhagwant Singh, have other plans and want….
