Review

Sai Dharam Tej’s character Jai is a modern-day Ram who is willing to sacrifice everything, even his family, for the benefit of the country. His childhood friend Keshav (Prasanna), who has always been the yin to his yang, is the Raavan in this story. Jai, who is self-righteous and always doing the right thing, wants to join the DRDO so he can help his country. On the other hand, Keshav, who has always been drawn to crime since he was a little child, has only grown to commit it in a more cunning and lucrative manner over time.

Jai’s happy family, who always support him in pursuing his goals, is another factor. And then there’s Bhargavi (Mehreen), a character who is wasted in a movie that doesn’t have time for her, save for when a duet needs to be sung in a faraway place. Bhargavi is artistic, intelligent, and independent, with a mind of her own. Jai prioritizes his country over his family, with the latter coming in a close second. Because Jai obviously doesn’t have time for Bhargavi, the purpose of her being in this story is never made clear. She is the Sita in this story—someone for whom her Ram will always fight, but who is shunted to the background when the going gets tough.

The story of Ram and Raavan’s conflict with Jai and Keshav is told in “Jawaan.” While the love song, flashy songs, et cetera, serve as a good diversion in the first half, the audience may sigh impatiently whenever a song appears on screen in the second half. A story about a guy seeking to prevent a special missile launcher called “Octopus” from slipping into the wrong hands is expected to be fast-paced and engrossing. But ‘Jawaan’ is too preoccupied in recounting the conflict to pay attention to that.

‘Jawaan’ finishes with the hero rescuing the day and the villain suffering a torturous demise after a protracted cat and mouse pursuit, funky dance movies, and romantic songs in exotic locations. The way the movie is handled reminds me of an animated movie like “Megamind” or “Despicable Me.” There are no gray people or situations in the movie; everything is either good or evil. No justification is ever offered for behavior, and this is especially true given that the characters are first introduced when they are still very young. A couple pivotal parts in the movie are too ridiculous to understand for a movie that tries to take itself seriously but ends up being a caricature, in addition to the obvious.

Despite the shaky character development, Sai Dharam Tej does a good job as Jai. As Bhargavi, Mehreen Pirzada is stunning, unapologetic, and powerful. While Keshava’s character seems to exude threat due to the fact that he is “evil for the sake of evil,” Prasanna is unable to embody the necessary hostility.

In spite of the preachy dialogues about “desh bhakti” and dubious political leanings, if you like Sai Dharam Tej, you should go see this movie. Other than that, avoid it!

Themes

Several subjects that are both timeless and current are examined in “Jawan 2023”:

Patriotism: The film highlights Captain Aryan Verma’s sense of patriotism by highlighting the significance of doing one’s duty and making sacrifices for one’s country.

Family and Sacrifice: Aryan’s attempt to strike a balance between his obligations to his family and his country exposes issues regarding the sacrifices people make for the benefit of society as a whole.

Espionage and Intrigue: The novel is set in the exciting world of intelligence organizations, covert missions, and operations.

Atonement: As Aryan confronts his past and works to make apologies, his journey also functions as a quest for atonement.

In the midst of risk and ambiguity, the dynamics of love and relationships are explored in the movie.
