‘Lucknow Central’ is a film directed by Ranjit Tiwari that features an ensemble cast of Farhan Akhtar, Diana Penty, Deepak Dobriyal, Ravi Kishan and Ronit Roy and is the story of a bunch of jail inmates that form a band together and try to escape jail. The film has been produced by Nikhil Advani and the music of the film has been composed by Arjuna Harjaie.
Farhan Akhtar tries to portray a village man but fails at getting the mannerisms and language consistent. Instead, the film lies on the brilliant peroformances by Diana Penty, Deepak Dobriyal, Ravi Kishan and the rest of the supporting cast who all play their parts to perfection.
The film revolves around music and Arjuna Harjaie does an excellent job at composing songs like ‘Rangdaari’ which keeps the audience hooked and sparks emotion in them. The director of the film does not try to comment on the legal system but tells his own little story based around it and does a good job at creating a warm environment.
Verdict: 'Lucknow Central' is a film that depends on its supporting starcast. The performances are brilliant and make the movie worth watching along with its emotion enducing music. The story and screenplay is where the film lacks behind as a movie ased on almost the same premise was released last month. Fans of Farhan Akhtar will like this film.
