Review of Trimurti

Trimurti (1995)
3/10
Wasted Effort......
11 July 2014
"Trimurti" along with movies like "Razia Sultan", "Vijay" and "Roop Ki Rani Choron Ka Raja" have been regarded the most wash-out productions from the biggest film makers ever. Despite the great hype shown, they were among the biggest flops of all time. After watching "Trimurti" I got this feeling that it isn't that horrible film like what most of the people said about it. But I would call it a wasted effort in terms of direction, performances, and production values. The reason is obvious, the predictable storyline and its immature presentation.

The story is on three brothers and their mother who get separated and their vengeance with the villain. Perhaps this story has been repeated umpteenth of times in Indian Movies. Making an analogy with one of the songs from the same movie "Very Good Very Bad," the very bad thing of the film is the most important thing the story itself. And the good things are good performances from Jackie Shroff, Anil Kapoor, Saeed Jaffrey and Priya Tendulkar. Shahrukh Khan does an overacting and is unbearable most of the times. Though Mukul Anand was the director of the film, the taste of Subash Ghai's direction appears all the way in terms of photography. Besides the fabulous locations, good sets can be seen in the choreography of few songs. Overall, some good performances and direction got lost in this failed giant which isn't better than a B grade movie in its story telling, and it runs for an inordinate length.
