Plot
Salaar has the captivating story of two friends who become bitter rivals. Prabhas and Prithviraj Sukumaran, who portray the roles of Deva and Vardha, respectively, are the leads in this film.
While residing in Tinsukia with his mother, Deva leads a carefree lifestyle that is characterised by a mysterious history. When a bunch of thugs seek Aadhya, who has just arrived in town, the peace is shattered. As Deva pursues the group, he realises that Vardha, his closest friend, is controlling them.
Review
Fans are finally treated to a full-fledged action picture starring Prabhas after a long break, and director Prashanth Neel expertly shows off Prabhas’s legendary strength and charisma.
Prabhas is so convincing as Deva that it’s impossible to imagine anybody else playing the character. The audience is captivated by Prabhas’ merciless performance in action scenes.
“Bhoosthapitham, Nelamattam” those are the words you say to Records now 🔥🔥🔥

Prithviraj Sukumaran gives a solid performance, which gives the picture more nuance. The sequences he shares with Prabhas are riveting, and he gives a powerful performance overall.
Ravi Basrur does an adequate job, and his soundtrack makes the sequences better. The cinematography of Bhuwan Gowda is also good.
Particularly in the first part of the narrative, it has a profound effect. Neat scores go hand in hand with outstanding action scenes.

A more polished narrator would have improved the second part of the narrative, even as the first half keeps the pace acceptable. The film’s uniqueness is a bit compromised as some situations in the second hour make viewers think of KGF.
It’s Better to watch KGF2 or BAHUBALI 2 on OTT instead watching salaar in theatre .
Disappointed – 1⭐️ Cringe Remake
The movie’s repetitive storyline, revolving around friends turning into enemies, fails to bring anything fresh to the table. Drawing inspiration… pic.twitter.com/DMjaCxaRs4

Overall, Salaar, starring Prabhas and Prithviraj, is a stunning action drama. The film’s well-executed stunts add to its overall appeal, however, the plot in the second half is the obvious negative.

#SalaarReview Disappointed
⭐️⭐️ 2/5#Salaar didn’t live up to the hype for me. The characters lacked depth and their motivations were unclear. The action sequences are good, while visually impressive but felt repetitive and didn’t add much to the overall story.

Watching at #NewYorkCity
45 minutes watched… still slow. Messy direction. Unorganized screenplay…
First 45 minutes— Torture 😠 😡
