Tara Surarias best performance till date. Abhishek Bannerjee is phenomenal. The movie is good dont know why people are criticizing. However I did feel that Tara Sutaria doesnt pass like a middle class girl. They should have changed her look a bit or the character could have been a rich girl maybe that would have make sense. Even her hindi diction didnt make her look like a small town girl at all. Rajpal Yadav was brilliant as well and it was nice to see him on screen after a long time. The movie does give you NH10 feels though so dont expect to he blown away by the plot. However its a good one time watch and you might just enjoy it.

Thrilling movie, showing bravery of a girl Apurva to fight with gang of 4. The film shoots in an abandoned place. Active of Rajpal Yadav and Abhishek Banerjee may be improved more better. However movie revolves round actress that how she fight with four people. The scene of film are well thrilled according to situations. Movie is able to keep audience to sit till last to know the fate of the story. I will recommend every girl to watch this movie and to know how can you self defend in emergency. There is no any boring scene in movie except only one song. There is vulgar dialogue so don't watch this with children.

Apurva review : "Mera Naam Apurva Hai" is her clap-worthy concluding line to one of her abductors. Indeed, this is Tara Sutaria's finest performance till date and the titular film, which premiered directly on Disney Hotstar this mid-week, will hopefully give her career the much needed boost!! Tara plays the about to be married Apurva, who gets abducted from her bus on the Chambal highway. The four sadistic robbers, who take her away just to add some fun element to their night out, don't know whats in the offing for them though!! As such, Apurva's plot is pretty much predictable like any survival drama...but it's the execution and the acting department that works in its favour. The film's crisp pace at just one hour thirty five minutes run time is another plus. I was actually reminded of Anushka Sharma's far superior NH10 (2015) during some chilling moments. And that's a compliment!! Expectedly, Abhishek Banerjee and Rajpal Yadav are first rate as the uncouth rabid criminals, who derive perverse pleasure in killing humans -male or female!! Particularly, you will just loathe Banerjee's character as he cares two hoots for even his own gang members... The surprise revelation of Apurva is but of course Tara Sutaria, who makes most of the golden opportunity she gets to shoulder an entire movie on her own and comes up trumps at the end of it. Atta Girl!! Regards, Sumeet Nadkarni.

When the trailer of this movie was out,I had very high expectations. But watching it made me feel the quote very real that "expectations hurts,"but even if my expectations were low,I must say that something was missing may be the music part. The music didn't match the scary or tensed situations. This movie is inspired by true story but I don't doubt about it and another movie was released with same outline few years back starring Anushka Sharma. Tara Sutaria did very well. Her role in the movie very commendable. She played her part very well. But something went missing and the movie was not engaging. At many places everything was predicted that made to lose interest in watching the movie. If you have not watched Anushka Sharma's NH 10 then you would definitely love it else you would find the movie very predictable. Streaming exclusively on hotstar.

Engaging and Thrilling.. Good One. Tara Sutaria's Performance is good. Something new. Rajpal Yadav as Gangstar, wowly intense. Nice one. Abhishek Banerjee is best always. Other characters are good too. The best part of the movie is the movies length. Story keeps you engage and gives a short time thrilling experience.. Overall it's a good Movie. If you like movies like me. You watch all kind of movies (with some characterstics) This movie will remind you of ' NH10' anushka Sharma's NH10. This movie is inspired by real incidents. A good one worth watch. - itsbymayank Review of Apurva #itsbymayank.

There are two points that participate in creating a good/very good movie: balance of direction and a good story. However, in one case, the movie has high chances to turn out trash. Meaning to say, a good story line but below average screenplay/direction. And this movie falls in this category. Inspired by true events, and of-course when you talk about chambal dacoits, it is highly probable that such type of event/events would have happened. A kidnapped person who turns on the table to its side and releases itself -- a very good story with a perfect blend of horror, thriller, and mystery. Movie starts great. Four dacoits overtake a car and kills all present inside, in a span of ten minutes. One dacoit is a sharp shooter - bravo. Everything was going all fine, these highly skilled actors are doing their part well, when enters the protagonist of the story - Tara Sutaria. Till her kidnapping, she doesn't get much chance to show her skills. And neither does the director/writer. But after that, the movie starts downhill at a speed of 200 km/hr (just sarcastically). And what doesn't work, is something i am going to highlight: 1. She is barefoot, but runs like a skilled Paan Singh Tomar all around the deserted village with sharp stones and spokes here and there. She is even able to beat highly skilled dacoits (whose primary skill include running) in run race, not once but many times. 2. The place where dacoits stay, like Veerappan, is a place which is fed in their mind like knowing ABCD to an English language Professor. A simple chirm could warn them the position of the object. And yet, she is able to outrun Jugnu making him fall in the well. Just a pathetic dacoit. 3. I would have loved to know her past where she had shown her bravery, and skills, rather some melodramatic and unnecessary love scenes that only dragged. A mix of two would have been much better. 4. It felt like this movie is a mix of many hollywood/bollywood movies like 'I spit on your grave', 'lake placid', 'NH 10', 'Jungle (2000)' and may be many more. While those movies weren't also too good, this fell below them. 5. At last, she is moving bare foot on the railway track. And one dacoit is behind her who wants to know her name. Really!!! If i remember correctly, he was the one who talked to Sid like 6-7 hours back over a phone call, and Sid asked two three times about Apruva, taking out her name aloud. Well, there are many more such silly and undeniable flaws that would take me another 2-3 hours to jot down. 4 stars for the first half, and nothing more.

Apurva is a senseless film that hardly merits a review. It follows the clichéd formula of a predictable masala movie, with absurd plot elements. The protagonist, Tara Sutaria, effortlessly dispatching kidnappers one by one, reappearing mysteriously to lure and kill them, defies all logic. Another character's kidnapping serves only as a device for the protagonist to use a cellphone. Except for Rajpal Yadav's acting, the performances were mediocre. This movie is best avoided; I grew bored within 15 minutes, resorting to fast-forwarding to reach the end! Those who consider this as a good thriller should watch any of the 'Crime Patrol' episodes on Sony, a much better option to kill time.

With nothing new to offer this thriller is purely depends upon the screenplay that Keeps u going at a study place... Nikhil had been backed up with pretty good technical team where camera work is a major asset that captures the soul of raw & rustic plains of northern parts of India (Chambal),while the lighting during the night shots are a pleasant view to watch out... Tara sutaria might not be the best of her career but does justify to the role undoubtedly... Abhishek and Rajpal does a fantabulous job of typical freaks and are unpredictable with their wilder behaviour.... Overall a good popcorn movie to passout.

Even though the film is not too long to watch but the worst part it does is the story is so damn slow that it could prolong to that of the speed of turtle. One of the best YouTube Bollywood reviewer suggested to watch this. I did not like it. Saying that it resembles the movie that of Anushka Sharma NH something. God no. This movie is not a even bit similar to that. That Anushka's film was so close to heart and horrific but this one no way, I wanted to skip all parts. This movie is like slow train on the track that demands fast pace. Rustling and old, screeching and predictable to were it will lead.
