An Average Revenge Drama!!

Paththar is an action revenge drama film directed by Deepak Bahry and stars Late Om Puri, Danny, Gulshan Grover, Anuradha Patel, Deepika Chikhalia and Aruna Irani.

Resham works under Major Balwant's leadership and soon he gets dismissed and later, when they both meet, the former is out on a killing spree to avenge the wrongs done to him.

A film with one of the great star cast but a mediocre and half hearted execution. The plot of the film is decent but the execution disappoints. The films fails to make you connected with the characters and despite of wrongdoing suffered by the character of Om Puri you didn't finds yourself connected or sympathetic towards him.

Acting in the film is average with Danny being the most impressive followed by Om Puri. Gulshan Grover was average and we have seen him doing such roles in many films and he looked stereotyped. Rest all the characters were average to terrible.

Songs in the film is poor, screenplay is below par and cinematography is average.

An average revenge drama.
