Movie Report
Striker is a film directed by Editor-Director Chandan Arora. Chandan has always made a character based tales but this time he has come up with a very well written central character that has never before exposed on Indian screen.
Striker is story of a poor boy Surya (Siddharth), born in poor family, grown up with few luxuries. Poor health keeps him away from school often and that is when his elder brother, Chandrakant (Anoop Soni), introduces him to carrom. Chandrakant quits playing after he loses a heavy bet with local goon, Jaleel.
A hope for a job in Dubai replaces the passion for carrom as Surya grows into a young man. He wants to work in Dubai and in the process is duped by a local agency. Surya loses his hard earned money he had saved for going to Dubai. Surya is forced to cross paths with Jaleel (Aditya Pancholi).
His childhood friend Zaid (Ankur Vikal) gets him back on track to earn money the quick way by betting on carrom games. Reluctant at first, the lure of the lucre soon draws Surya to the betting addas. Being robbed of his hard earned money by the same man who had caused misery for many families, Surya decides to take on Jaleel on his turf.
Acting wise, Siddharth delivers a natural performance. Aditya Pancholi looks venomous and enacts his part just too wonderfully. Anupam Kher is fine. Seema Biswas gets into the skin of the character. Ankur Vikal is superb. He puts life into the character. Anoop Soni is wonderful. Vidya Malvade is just okay.
On the whole, Striker is a very nice film with good concept. The movie is worth a watch.
