Sarman (Hrithik Roshan), a young man, who sees visions of one-horned animal, vows to go to Mohenjo Daro as he ruminates and thinks he has a connection with Mohenjo Daro. So it is safe to say that we see an outright fictionalized account of Mohenjo Daro, it is centered in 2016 BC, where farmers from a small village grow indigo and sell it in Mohenjo Daro. How much we knew about Mohenjo Daro before watching this movie? now I analyze how much do I know about Mohenjo Daro? As we all know from our text books that nothing much is available about this civilization but only the ruins which were discovered around 1920. This could have been another masterpiece for Gowariker but it is a mess of a movie. Overall, Mohenjo Daro is an extremely disappointing movie and wasted potential. The last 30 minutes of the movie are a complete awful shoehorned in subplot trying to make Hrithik's character looking like Noah and Moses. Kabir Bedi as the villain is pretty disposable but his character's son is even worse. The plot is so muddled and somewhere in there is a good movie with a good story. There's so many story-lines that are left hanging by the end of the film. My biggest problem with the film is that it doesn't know what kind of movie it wants to be. Rahman's music is phenomenal and certain action scenes were done well. Pooja Hegde is good as the female lead and I can see her as a future Bollywood star. Hrithik Roshan is great in this role and by far the best part of the movie. As always, I'll start with the positives. Even though it's directed by the great Ashutosh Gowariker, it has so many problems that make it a very disappointing movie. This is probably the most disappointing movie I've seen all year unfortunately. Mohenjo Daro was one of my most anticipated movies of 2016, and well, it wasn't good.
