Review: Sonu Sood’s directorial debut delves deep into the pervasive threat of cybercrime, a modern plague wreaking havoc in India. With mobile phones doubling as vulnerabilities, the film explores how greed and desperation make people easy targets for malicious digital predators. The narrative begins with Fateh’s quiet life in rural Punjab but quickly takes a dramatic turn when a harrowing incident sets him on a mission to dismantle a cyber crime mafia. The film dives into action from the start, taking viewers on a gritty, blood-soaked journey. While the fast pace keeps the audience engaged, the backstory of the lead characters lacks the depth needed to forge a strong emotional connection, making the writing feel somewhat shallow and exaggerated at times.
The action sequences are intense, evoking the stylised brutality of Hollywood films like John Wick and Kill Bill and Animal back home. However, the escalating violence may not sit well with all viewers.
Sonu Sood, who makes his directorial debut with this film, handles the action effectively, and his performance, perhaps by design, doesn’t delve deeply into the character’s emotional side. Naseeruddin Shah and Vijay Raaz make their presence felt despite limited screen time, with Raaz’s sly humour offering moments of relief in an otherwise dark plot. Jacqueline Fernandez does well in her role as ethical hacker Khushi, and it’s refreshing that the film avoids unnecessary romantic distractions.
The screenplay, written by Sonu Sood and Ankur Pajni, traverses various locations to highlight the far-reaching influence of cyber crimes. While the film’s relentless pace is a strength, the story occasionally veers into unrealistic territory, though the rapid evolution of digital fraud today lends some plausibility to even its more far-fetched subplots. The background score, composed by John Stewart Eduri and Hans Zimmer, enhances the tension, though it can occasionally feel overwhelming.
At its core, Fateh highlights the vulnerabilities of our fast-paced digital lives. While its blood-soaked narrative may not resonate with everyone, it effectively underscores the urgency of its theme.
