Sherni released on Amazon Prime Video recently and here's what the janta's take is on the film featuring Vidya Balan.
Directed by the Newton fame director, Amit V. Masurkar and starring Vidya Balan, the basic dilemma that the film Sherni deals with is man versus wild. When a new D.F.O (Divisional Forest Officer) takes charge of this position in the forests of Madhya Pradesh, a village in the vicinity is threatened by a tigress on the prowl.
Vidya (Vidya Balan) seems isolated, indifferent and is a woman of very few words but is determined and intensely passionate about her work. She is like the lone woman wolf in a male-dominated department who is nonchalant about her colleagues constantly trying to undermine her. Suddenly a tigress, identified as T12, by the forest department, starts hunting near the village fields endagering humans and farm animals all alike. As the village is flanked by forests on both sides, the villagers treat tigers passing through their fields as a norm. Often the tigers pass by without even glancing in their direction, but this new development spreads the fear of lives and livelihood. And as soon as the situation turns dire, authorities are approached and as usual the local politicians turn it in for their own benefit.
For Vidya, locating and capturing T12 alive is of utmost priority and importance. But she has to face so many hurdles to make this a possibility. Navigating through the sentiments of the locals and the pressure built by the politicians. And the top it all, her boss Bansal’s (Brijendra Kalra) attitude, who just wants the problem to disappear into the woods. And Ranjan Rajhans (Sharat Saxena), an ally of the politicians who calls himself a conservationist but prides himself on the number of tigers he has hunted. Her only support seems to comes from Hassan Noorani (Vijay Raaz), who is a zoology professor in a nearby college, some of the local villagers like Jyoti (Sampa Mandal), a member of the village committee, and Mr. Nangia (Neeraj Kabi), the Forest Department Head.
So take a look at here so as to know whether this film roared like the Sherni for the janta or not!
WHAT. A. FILM.

I have so many thoughts. #Sherni pic.twitter.com/aT4puLEypx
Growing up a forest officer's daughter in Jharkhand,I find it hard to explain to people who have no context about IFS as to what my dad's job really entailed.Shook at the realistic portrayal of the ins and outs of forest department staff in #Sherni 1/4

#Sherni -An environmental thriller portraying the struggle of animal vs man’s co-existence and debates over conservation & livelihood. The characters are well written & the performances are equally impressive. The narrative hits the right satires & rides with no dull moment.

#Sherni is possibly the best film on #climatechange to have come out of India. The film careens to an inevitability, and the end credits shots are esp. heartbreaking 💔🐯🦊🐰🦁🐻🐵🐃🐆🦏🐘🦉🦅🦩🦆🦢🐋🐬🦈♥️

#Sherni movie is a fantastic storytelling experience and a visually rich narrative of wildlife. I couldn’t stop noticing a quiet tribute to Salim Ali, an Indian ornithologist and naturalist, in the movie. pic.twitter.com/pRMH5pRJ0u

⭐⭐🌟/5
#Sherni opens with a man mimicking a tiger & ends w/ eerie taxidermy in a museum. In the middle, a deeply empathetic story gently unfolds. You cd call it a "forest procedural" that tracks an elusive tigress but exposes a lot else in her wake. Kudos to the entire team 👏 pic.twitter.com/9rGn210gHB

#Sherni is remarkable, a must watch. Having spent time in a similar landscape while building #EarthFocusKanha, I feel the film showcases the complex dynamics of protecting biodiversity and human well-being with authenticity, balance and nuance.

Bollywood won't change. Movie #Sherni resembles the story of tigeress #Avni (T1) killed in 2018, leaving behind 2 cubs. The notorious hunter's name was Ashgar Ali Khan however in the movie, it was a kalava/Teeka dhari, hawan participant Pintuji who killed the tigeress.
