'Firangi' failed to impress the masses

In the movie 'Firangi,' which released this weekend, Kapil Sharma has left his forte of comedy and has played the role of a village simpleton, Mangatram, who wants everyone to be happy. Despite all the hype, Firangi's mundane love story failed to impress the masses. According to critics, due to the incoherent screenplay of the film, it appears like a cheap imitation of 'Lagaan'.



इस सप्ताहांत में रिलीज़ हुई फिल्म 'फिरंगी' में कपिल शर्मा ने अपने कॉमेडी के विशेष गुण को छोड़ एक गांव के बुद्धू, मंगतराम की भूमिका निभाई है, जो सभी को खुश देखना चाहता है। इतने प्रचार के बावजूद, फिरंगी की नीरस प्रेमकहानी जनता को प्रभावित करने में विफल रही। समीक्षकों के मुताबिक, बेतुकी पटकथा के कारण यह फिल्म 'लगान' की एक घटिया नकल प्रतीत होती है।
