My Gut Feel and comments:
Revenge and hatred are the purest form or emotions and very few films by few directors able to display the same in hindi film cinema effectively. In his initial films like satya, sarkar and company ramgopaI verma captured this emotion beautifully. Tigmanshu Dhulia also managed to present this human emotion quite well in his most of the films.
Tigmanshu’s hasil and Paan singh Tomar are my all-time favorites. Coming back to bullet raja, it loud and boisterous. Saif ali khan is looking great in promos. I have high expectations from this movie and as I go by my gut feel I am sure that Tigmanshu Dhulia must have done full justice to the screenplay and narration would be progressive. Other star cast is also seems to be apt and over all presentation seems to be impressive. I would give this movie 3.5 out of 5 stars, five days before the release.
