Dilwale is not a good film by conventional standards. The plot holes are huge enough to park a truck (literally—many trucks appear). The villain is forgettable. The logic defies physics. But as a cultural artifact , it’s brilliant. It’s Bollywood doing what it does best: delivering a masala film that doesn’t apologize for being ridiculous. Watch it for “Gerua” (a genuinely beautiful song shot in Iceland), for Varun Dhawan’s comic timing, and for the sheer audacity of making a gangster revenge film that’s also a family drama that’s also a road trip comedy.
Here’s the interesting part: Dilwale isn’t a bad movie trying to be good. It’s a self-aware spectacle. Rohit Shetty knows exactly what he’s doing. He reunites SRK and Kajol—the most iconic romantic pair of the 90s—and then throws them into a world where cars fly, bullets never hit heroes, and villains monologue for ten minutes before getting beaten by a wrench.
If you go into Dilwale expecting a grounded, logical heist drama, you’ve made a terrible mistake. What you’re actually getting is a two-and-a-half-hour tribute to 90s Bollywood sentimentality, cranked up to 11, doused in gasoline, and crashed through a glass window in slow motion.
★★☆☆☆ (2/5) as a film. ★★★★☆ (4/5) as a time capsule of 2015 Bollywood excess.
