Description: Inspector Vikram is a 2021 action-packed Hindi film featuring a dedicated and entertaining cop who leaves no crime unsolved. The story takes an intriguing turn when he encounters a cunning villain leading a drug racket. The film’s trailers provided glimpses of its content, but the full experience reveals a narrative that could have been more concise, as the runtime feels slightly extended. However, it delivers a visually vibrant and enjoyable cinematic experience.
The plot kicks off with the mysterious death of a journalist on the verge of exposing a major scandal. This opening scene quickly sets the stage for unexpected twists that define the film’s atmosphere. The first half focuses on establishing Inspector Vikram’s (played by Prajwal Devaraj) expertise and introducing a romantic subplot, while the second half ramps up the action and surprise elements, keeping the audience engaged.
What makes Inspector Vikram stand out is its unapologetic embrace of commercial masala cinema. The film shines with its colorful visuals, skilled art direction, dynamic cinematography, and a gripping background score, elevating it above typical offerings.
Prajwal Devaraj delivers a commendable performance in his first full-fledged commercial role. Bhavana’s character goes beyond being just decorative, though her assertiveness diminishes in the latter part of the story. Raghu Mukherjee impresses as the antagonist, and Darshan’s cameo is impactful, eliciting cheers from the audience. Ragini Prajwal’s brief appearance adds a charming touch to the film.
