Most of the films based on the lives of famous players have been made so far, most of them have tried to capitalize on their struggles and emotions. The same things will be seen in 'Rashmi Rocket', which has been streamed on OTT platform Zee5 on October 15.
There is an issue of novelty in this, which is gender testing. Its victims have been female athletes. Makers have tried to tell here that sports organizations commit atrocities with women's organizations many times in the name of gender testing. Women players are considered to be slightly masculine and considered extra powerful. Then what difficulties women players have to go through, what injuries are done to their identity, the film is also about that.
In the film, Lawyer (Abhishek Banerjee) challenges the case in court against testing and the exclusion of athlete Rashmi (Taapsee Pannu) from the association, which will not only be presented to the audience in the form of a fun courtroom drama but also new information.
Talking about the acting of the actors in the film, Taapsee Pannu has left no stone unturned to bring alive the character of Rashmi. She has brought to life the character of a runner to a pregnant woman. At the same time, Priyanshu Painyuli has given life to the character in the role of his on-screen husband, Army Man.
On the other hand, Abhishek Banerjee will be seen with his brilliant performance in the role of Lawyer, who seems heavy on everyone. His growing role and shining performance in film-by-film will prove beneficial for the future.
Every aspect of the film has turned out to be good. There are some scenes that are so emotional that they will make the corner of the eyes wet and those tears will be of happiness. But despite all this, the filmmaker has not taken much liberty.
Especially in the courtroom drama, which has been given a good space in the film, there should have stopped breathing, but the filmmakers seem to have failed to make it interesting.
Despite being a strong issue, the strong dialogue seems to be lacking. Overall, viewers who are fond of watching sports and courtroom drama can watch this film. Considering the performance of the cast and the interestingness of the story, it can be given three out of five stars.
