With Krantiveer: The Revolution on the brink of release, we at BollySpice believe it is inherently importantly to look back at the initial film, which bought not only Mehul Kumar, but also Nana Patekar and Dimple Kapadia to the spotlight. The film bought about a revolution of its own and highlighted the talented Nana Patekar, who is capable of mouthing dialogues that no one but the actor can. Whether it is his innate style and confidence, it is also his conviction as an actor, which really sets him apart from the rest. As a director, Mehul Kumar outdoes himself. He can easily be deemed as one of the first directors who wasn't afraid to call a bluff and expose a number of corrupt politicians using his film as a medium. We now take a look back at the original Krantiveer.
