Review of Bawaal: In the most callous movie of the year thus far, Hitler heals a dysfunctional marriage.

The world of cinema often surprises us with its creativity, offering a plethora of genres and unique storylines. However, some films push the boundaries of imagination and raise eyebrows with their unconventional plots. “Bawaal” is one such movie that has garnered significant attention due to its bizarre concept. In this review, we’ll explore the peculiar narrative that intertwines a dysfunctional marriage with the involvement of none other than Adolf Hitler himself.

Review of Bawaal Movie

Bawaal” is set in a parallel universe where history takes an unexpected turn. In this alternate reality, Adolf Hitler miraculously survives World War II and goes on to lead a secret life in a secluded mansion. As fate would have it, he becomes a healer who possesses the ability to mend broken relationships and reconcile estranged couples.

The story follows the lives of Sameer and Naina, a couple on the brink of divorce due to irreconcilable differences. Desperate to salvage their marriage, they stumble upon rumors of a mysterious healer who resides deep within the woods. Intrigued and willing to try anything, they decide to visit this enigmatic figure, unknowing of his true identity.

As Sameer and Naina reach the hidden mansion, they are astonished to discover that the healer is none other than the infamous dictator, Adolf Hitler. Suspense and bewilderment surround the couple, but they agree to stay and follow his unorthodox methods to repair their broken bond.

Hitler’s Unorthodox Healing Techniques

The portrayal of Adolf Hitler as a marriage healer is undoubtedly the most controversial aspect of the film. Director A.R. Rahman boldly takes creative liberties, blurring the lines between history and fiction. While some might find this concept intriguing, many viewers have criticized it as insensitive and distasteful, given the real horrors associated with the historical figure.

Throughout the movie, Hitler implements an array of unconventional techniques, often involving rigorous physical exercises, psychological role-playing, and philosophical discussions. While these methods are meant to challenge and strengthen the couple’s bond, they often come across as ludicrous and comical, making it difficult for the audience to connect with the characters’ emotional journey.

Acting and Performances

Despite the questionable storyline, the lead actors give commendable performances. The on-screen chemistry between Sameer and Naina, portrayed by talented actors Aamir Khan and Deepika Padukone, is the movie’s saving grace. They manage to infuse emotions into their characters, making the absurd plot somewhat bearable.

Adolf Hitler’s character, played by an unrecognizable veteran actor under heavy prosthetics, is portrayed with an odd mix of sternness and unexpected tenderness. However, even the most seasoned actor would find it challenging to portray such a character convincingly, considering the controversial context.

Cinematography and Music

From a technical perspective, “Bawaal” manages to impress with its mesmerizing cinematography and A.R. Rahman’s captivating musical score. The film’s picturesque locations, especially the secluded mansion, provide a visually stunning backdrop for the unfolding drama. Rahman’s music elevates the emotional moments, though it struggles to reconcile with the film’s overall absurdity.

Bawaal” is an audacious experiment in blending history, romance, and the supernatural. Unfortunately, the film’s intriguing premise is overshadowed by its insensitive portrayal of Adolf Hitler, a figure historically responsible for unimaginable atrocities. While the lead actors deliver impressive performances, they cannot rescue the movie from its strange and perplexing plot.

As we near the end of this cinematic journey, it becomes apparent that “Bawaal” is a polarizing film destined to spark heated debates and discussions among audiences. While some might appreciate the film’s boldness and originality, others may find it tasteless and offensive. In the end, “Bawaal” is a movie that will either be remembered for its audacity or quickly forgotten due to its contentious subject matter.

Jennifer Lopez has “let go of her ego” to prioritise her career and personal growth as she navigates her separation from Ben Affleck.

The 55-year-old actress and singer, during an interview with Amazon/MGM, opened up about working on the upcoming film Unstoppable, a project she co-starred in while estranged from her husband.

“It was an honour to be a part of Anthony [Robles] and to play Judy,” Jennifer shared. “I approached the role with a complete lack of ego where you have to go in there and have so much respect for the person you are playing because it’s her story.”

“Unstoppable is a very different movie than [Small Things Like These], but in a way it’s similarly rooted in the passion of really talented artists,” Ben told Entertainment Toninght just couple of weeks back. “Billy Goldenberg and Jennifer and Don Cheadle and Jharrel and Bobby Cannavale – all of whom were really passionate about this film.”

After reuniting and marrying in 2022, Jennifer filed for divorce in August 2024. Reports of marital struggles, including living separately, surfaced months before the filing.

“He’s focusing on his work and his kids now,” an insider told InTouch Weekly. “Ben already moved out … They’ll never stop loving each other, but she can’t control him, and he can’t change her.”
