Mahesh Manjarekar in his outings in the last one and half decades appeared a pale shadow of his older version, the one who gave us masterpieces like Astitva or Vaastav. Even though he made some interesting Marathi films meanwhile, Bollywood was definitely missing his golden form. Finally, with Antim, Mahesh Manjarekar is back in his pristine form and the audience is gifted with one of the finest entertainers of recent years. Antim is an outright entertainer with honest intentions and does not unnecessarily glorify its Alpha Male The Salman Khan.

The problem with Bollywood is that it has embraced trash films of Salman Khan like Dabaang or Ready where all he did was defying gravity, breaking the laws of physics and showing his torso and when he has actually delivered a nuanced performance, everyone is trying to undermine his efforts. Bollywood since the arrival of Covid-19 has been waiting for a smasher like Antim and the Mumbai film industry seriously needs more Antims to ensure sustenance of lakhs of people who earn their daily bread and butter through such films.

The surprise in Antim is its protagonist Ayush Sharma, who has exceeded all expectations in this author backed role. He is calm when the scenes demand him to be so. He is expressive at the right moments. And his 'panga' with his megastar Jiju in this movie is a treat to watch. Salman is astonishingly restrained. It is indeed a heartening feeling seeing the macho actor in a role which demanded very little from him, yet he delivered one of his most memorable performances till date. Debutant Mahima is a treat to watch in certain scenes. The background scores are fantastic. As already said, Mahesh Manjarekar is back in form in direction.

Overall, this is a classy mass entertainer which everyone will enjoy watching with the whole family. Kudos to Salman Khan and team for coming up with such a slick project. Do not listen to those idiots with calls for boycotting this movie. A film like this should be celebrated not boycotted. Go, have your popcorn and enjoy Antim with one and only Salman Khan.

Just when people doubt Salman Khan he produces gemes like this one but the star of the show is director itself Truly an entertaining film. With great performance by Salman Khan and ayush sharma.

That's how bad this alleged movie is.

While watching this movie kept on imagining myself as the guy in the paragliding video, if u know what i mean ;) no story, bad screenplay, worse direction, worst songs and disastrous acting.

I always thinks that the last salman movie was worst and his last but I hope and pray that this one is his 'antim'
