Its difficult to actually pinpoint what Ram Gopal Varma is trying to say in this film... but my guess would be he's adapting the Godfather, and I would also say that he did an impressive job with that! The Good: Francis... Full review

First of all..I begin by saying that I AM A HUGE FAN OG "THE GODFATHER"-Novel. But Sarkar is not a complete adaptation of Gofather. Only the basic undercurrent of a mafia Don has been taken from it. I feel Sarkar... Full review

Sarkar is a good movie by any standard. It portrays a fictitious do-gooder who is a messiah to the down-trodden. In the Indian context where the rule of law is but a mockery of its own self, Sarkar (played by... Full review

Ram Gopal Verma has not intended to actually remake "The Godfather". Its his tribute to the original great story & subsequent adaptation for Indian audiences. Hence, if one thinks that Sarkar is an Indian remake of Coppola's "The Godfather" he... Full review

The film's grunge-rock musical score is fun....The film's India's Got Talent finale is also incredibly shoddy.....Deepika's skating, though helped by the use of a body double and clever camera shots, is very obviously fake -....The weakest part of the film is the one about pursuing dreams -....Nandu's three luchcha friends have some lovely spontaneous moments and lines..... ...

Sarkar focused on the complexities of a powerful family, and was acclaimed for its unconventional, intense story, execution and performances.
They have the capability and the distribution network to take the film to its deserved potential.

But the film does deliver some surprises, and that's why it's much better, and tauter, than the first.
It wastes no time in any re-caps : just one brief scene flashes back to the previous film, where the dead elder son ( Kay Kay) is shown.

The film is very strong in all departments and highly entertaining as well.
They have created a powerful and fantastic story, which is very different to his original sequel Sarkar.
Media has already hyped the success of Sarkar Raj .

After convincing Sarkar [Amitabh Bachchan], who is against it for various reasons, Shankar undertakes a journey along with Anita to the villages of Maharashtra to mobilize support from the masses.
What impresses even more is the set of character artists who are terrific and just apt be it- Ravi Kale, Dilip Prabhawalkar, Sayaji Shinde and Supriya Pathak.
