Baby John: What kind of climax is this! You are planning to watch Baby John instead of Pushpa 2, read the review here

Dec 31,2024

The film Baby John was released at a time when Pushpa 2: The Rule was ruling the box office. It is a remake of the 2016 film Theri starring Thalapathy Vijay, Samantha, and Amy Jackson. The remake films Sarfira and Khel Khel Mein released this year did not do well at the box office. Baby John also fails to leave an impact despite all the masala.

Theri was directed by Atlee, who had made Jawaan, a masala-filled entertainment film with Shah Rukh Khan last year. Now Atlee's assistant Kalis has taken over the direction of the film. While Atlee is in the role of producer this time. The film may be made in Hindi but it is full of South Indian masalas. An attempt has been made to make it a little different from the original film by adding the angle of trafficking of girls in the film, but this attempt has not been able to make the film interesting.

What is the story of Varun Dhawan's Baby John?

The story is set in Kerala. John D'Silva (Varun Dhawan) lives with his daughter Khushi (Zara Jiana), dog Tiger, and Ramsevak (Rajpal Yadav). In a dramatic turn of events, Khushi's teacher Tara (Vamika Gabbi) files a complaint at the police station. Some goons are following a minor girl. Tara takes the girl to the police station. Jaan has to come to the police station even though he doesn't want to.

At night, some goons reach Jaan's house. When they talk about kidnapping Khushi, the real face of the simple-looking Jaan is revealed. He defeats all the goons. Tara comes to know that John is a former IPS. She asks Ramsevak about Jaan's past. From there, the layers of John's life start to unfold. John aka Satya Verma is a fearless police officer.

He has killed the son of Nana (Jackie Shroff), the leader of the girls trafficking gang, who had raped a minor girl. Nana, burning with vengeance, kills his wife (Kriti Suresh) and mother (Sheeba Chaddha). Nana comes to know about Satya who is living under a disguised identity. He comes back to ruin Satya's life, but will he succeed in his plans? The story is about this.

Weak story, useless dialogue

The audience who have seen the original film Theri will be very disappointed after watching Baby John. To differentiate Baby John from the original film, Kalis included the incident of the trafficking of girls in it, but he was not been able to include it in the story properly. As a villain, Jackie Shroff's look is quite different in the film, but his character has not become strong.

In commercial films, unless the villain appears powerful, the hero is not able to recover. Here too, both Nana's portrayal and dialogue are weak. Because of this, the rivalry between Nana and John has not become strong. The story takes place in Mumbai, but it is difficult to recognize whether you are in Mumbai or somewhere else. The songs and dance tracks are completely mismatched.

You suddenly feel out of the world of the story. The biggest drawback of the film is the emotions. The climax has been changed from the original film, but it is hastily done like the worn-out formula of Hindi films in which the hero first beats up and then kills the goons. In one scene of the film, Rajpal Yadav's character says comedy is a serious business. He again proves that comedy is not everyone's cup of tea.

Varun Dhawan could not breathe life into the character of DCP.

Varun has fulfilled his desire to do action on the big screen by working with a South Indian filmmaker for the first time. He looks good while doing action. However, the status of a DCP is not reflected in his personality. He needs to work on his emotions. There is no thrill in his romance with Keerti Suresh, who plays Meera, even though it is an exact copy of the original film.

This time, the character of Vamika Gabbi has been changed from the original film. However, that too is incomplete. She is after the smugglers but her character does not add much to the story. Her IPS training is limited to just one scene. The special attraction of the film is Zara Jiana as Khushi. She looks very comfortable in every scene. Cinematographer Kiran Kaushik has shown the beauty of South India very well through the camera.

There was a lot of possibility to reduce the long duration of the film by removing unnecessary songs and unnecessary scenes. There is a cameo of Salman Khan at the end but even that does not attract you. Varun Dhawan has a dialogue in the film that 'Many like me must have come but I have come for the first time'. Thalapathy Vijay, who came in this role before him, has shown his strength. Varun looks pale in comparison to him.
