Shamshera starring Ranbir Kapoor and Sanjay Dutt released in the cinemas on July 22 and the Janta had a lot of opinions about the film!
Shamshera is a period action film produced by Yash Raj Films and directed by Karan Malhotra. Set in 1871, Shamshera played by Ranbir Kapoor, is a tribal leader who is separated from his soil and his people is forced to steal the wealth of the rich who consider themselves as a higher caste. Shudh Singh played by Sanjay Dutt, an Indian officer of the British forces betrays Shamshera's trust and captures him and his tribe. Shamshera goes above and beyond for the freedom of his tribe, even if it means losing his own life in doing so.
But 25 years later, Balli played by Ranbir Kapoor, dedicates himself to his father's cause and seeks revenge for the injustice that he had to go through at the hands of the Britishers. Vaani Kapoor plays Sona, a dancer, and Ronit Roy, Saurabh Shukla, and Ashutosh Rana are also seen in pivotal roles in the movie. Apart from being set on a grand scale and being a larger-than-life historic piece, this film also marks Ranbir Kapoor's come back to the movies after four long years. Shamshera proved to be a weekend entertainer for some but mostly seemed like it fell flat as a story for many who watched the film.
Let's check out Janta's reviews!
Shamshera is a total torture. Damaged my brain cells. Had this severe headache within half an hour of the movie. Also a reminder to never go a movie with friend who won't leave it in between no matter how unbearable it is. #ShamsheraReview
#ShamsheraReview ππ#Shamshera is a boring one time watch. Just another failed bandit drama with some unnecessary comedy scene and confusing screenplay. You'll be confused if this film is an action film, comedy film or an emotional drama.

#Shamshera really worked for me. Zero expectations did the trick I guess. It could've been better nevertheless it has satisfied the ticket price I've paid for it. Good weekend watch!!! #ShamsheraReview
Just saw #Shamshera in theater, Ranbir Kapoor career's worst performance , his double role performance is unconvincing , voice modulation laughable and he looked funny doing action. Film is not engaging or entertaining at all. Total time waste. #RanbirKapoor#ShamsheraReviewhttps://t.co/dj6cYqUULJ
#Shamshera is a visually stunning mass extravaganza, is enjoyable despite its flaws. It's a nice blend of action, drama, humour. But wish the film was a little shorter.
Ranbir Kapoor showed that he can do the intense mass roles really well. Sanjay Dutt nailed the negative role. pic.twitter.com/kePi2iIAvs
#Shamshera has been quite enjoyable for me till interval. Ranbir kapoor is born to be a star. I wish they could have avoided the love angle which feels like a drag in the first half.
But genuinely not as bad as the people were screaming.

#Shamshera is definitely not "unbearable" as claimed by some critics.. But yes, it's a very average affair n falls flat in front of the high expectations audiences had of this film.. YRF deserves applause for the production scale & visuals but they fail miserably at script level!
No comments on the film :/ but the way #RanbirKapoor performed as an action hero was ππ». Hope he does this genre with a better script and production house next time. #Shamsherapic.twitter.com/Z9AVEXhdep
#RanbirKapoor cant do anything if the product is mediocre . His acting was top notch in #Shamshera! We cant expect an actor to rise above shoddy script and execution . Hope so Same actor will deliver huge opening with #Brahmastra !
Stunning audio visual experience with amazing BGM. Seeing #RanbirKapoor do a full fledged mass masala movie for the very first. This is just the beginning.π₯#Shamshera has all the elements needed for a mass entertainer. Loved the fun element to it. Ignore the noise. Love you #RKpic.twitter.com/SnkvYg5Z9A
#Shamshera is NOT unbearable as few critics saying, I went with 0 expectation and I could enjoy the movie..VFX , BGM and cinematography is top notch and #Ranbirkapoor is too goodπ₯,he kills both roles with his effortlessness & carries the movie on his shoulders #ShamsheraReviewpic.twitter.com/OZZkaVxucj
