Captain Bharath is Salim, Captain Bharath is Jai Hind. In his first assignment to trace or trash the terrorist operation he round off terrorist Masood and hand over to the government of India. He gets Shourya Chakra for it. In a short span of time Masood is freed on a hijack of an Indian Air plane with Rs.200 crores demand set by terrorist gang.
Feeling ashamed of this Captain Bharath in his second assignment takes his own decision. He seeks the support of his doctor wife Anjali (Pooja Gandhi) in declaring him as dead. As Salim and as Jai Hind, Captain Bharath now with a clue of terrorist attack in prominent places in Bangalore put an end to terrorist activities and surrenders to the government.
For taking law in to his hand Captain Bharath is sentenced for life imprisonment. The public support Captain Bharath but judiciary is above all.
‘Jai Hind’ has some authentic elements tucked in the film. Thanks to Major Srinivas Pujar, story, screenplay writer and producer of the film.
Some of the shots and operations conducted in the army headquarters give a good treatment to the film. Secondly the film is convincing from the point of view of every Indian. Guilty and criminals should be punished. With proper records on hand giving protection to terrorist is not called for, the film ‘Jai Hind’ focuses. That is all right but what about the law. In this direction director of this film Venugopal also takes the right decision of sentencing Captain Bharath to life. Nobody is above law is what Major Srinivas Pujar has rightly described in the film.
The film so good in many angles falters at some places. When Captain Bharath is making his statement he refers to 6 crores of Karnataka people. Terrorism is the issue of this nation and universe. How come Major Srinivas Pujar has forgotten this issue?
The drastic step taken by Captain Bharath in seeking his wife Dr Anjali support to declare her as widow is the extreme thinking of a true and honest Indian. For such a honest person life imprisonment is inevitable in the constitution.
The screenplay of the film in the first and second half is engaging. The deadly spell of action in the first and second half is well composed by Thriller Manju.
For the standard of Kannada, the locations, production values, selection of artists and how it is presented this film is in a good standard. Kudos to Srinivas Pujar!
Actor Sandesh in his second film after ‘E Sambashane’ has improved very well. Actually this should have been his first film. This film has the power of an action hero. Every youngster would like to do this kind of role in the debut. Yet in his second film Sandesh a well educated guy never disappoints. He is good in dialogue delivery too.
Pooja Gandhi has nothing much to do. She looks pretty in the close up and Sarees. Ramesh Bhat is once again convincing as father. Srinivas Pujar in a short role is quite OK. Thriller Manju as CBI officer looks pale in the quantum of work done by protagonist.
There is some superb editing, cinematography departments. The flashback opening and closing plus scenes are not disjointed.
Cinematography of Suryakanth Honnavalli is in top standards. He has shown the characters look very good on the screen.
Krishnavardhana Kulkarni cannot get good marks because he has copied the songs from earlier Kannada film and Hindi film songs.
Last but not the Least – Mother is supreme, mother land is extremely important! ‘Jai Hind’
