'Baaghi': Sincere but lacklustre

Adapted from two films, the Indonesian movie "The Raid: Redemption" (2001) and the 2004 Telugu release "Varsham", "Baaghi", starring Tiger Shroff and Shraddha Kapoor, is an action-packed, run-of-the mill love story of a rebel and his lady love. Afraid of his son Ronney (Tiger Shroff) going wayward or being a rebel, Colonel Samarjit Singh packs him off to his friend's gurukul, in Kerala, to "make a man out of him". En route on his journey to meet his father's friend in Kerala, Ronney meets Siya (Shraddha Kapoor) in the train. Love blossoms but not before laying the seeds of the various obstacles which include Siya's opportunist father, E.P. Khurana and Raghav, his guru (teacher)'s son, an equally formidable fighter, who also happens to be on the same train and falls in love with Siya, too.
