Designed as a sequel to the super successful Krantiveer (1994) which got Nana Patekar the Best Actor, National Award, Krantiveer – The Revolution (KTC) is a feeble effort at recreating the patriotic fervor which the original had.

Roshni (Jahan Bloch) is the young daughter of the man responsible for the last revolution, Pratap Narayan Tilak and his wife (Nana Patekar and Dimple Kapadia). She just like her dad wants to rid the nation of corruption, and the evils present in the society. She gets herself a platform by joining a TV channel as an investigative journalist. She is hell bent on exposing all the scams in the country including those involving high profile businessmen and top ministers. Along with her friends Vishal (Samir Aftab), Goldie (Aditya Singh Rajput) and Uday (Harsh Rajput) she takes this crusade forward and becomes successful eventually despite many odds.

The solitary reason why Krantiveer was a success was because of KK Singh's dialogues, Nana Patekar's character and Mehul Kumar's direction. Here Singh is not involved with the project; Nana is not acting in the movie and the veteran director though having made a sincere effort, falls short. There is no direct relation of the plot to any of the 26/11 terror attack scenes which come towards the climax. Though Mehul Kumar has tried to show authenticity by using footage of the 26/11 terrorists attacks, he falls short to amaze the audiences.

His debutante daughter Jahan has been made to tirade lengthy dialogues from the word go. While she does it with genuineness, it doesn't really work. Too much responsibility has been given on her shoulders leaving less scope for the rest. New comers Samir Aftab, Adiya Singh Rajput, Harsh Rajput put in their sincere efforts too. Senior actors like Ranjeet, Farida Jalal hardly get any scope to perform. Aman Verma playing the corporate head honcho, Mukesh Tiwari and Govind Namdeo playing dodgy ministers act well.

Music by Sachin-Jigar is okay and the songs ‘Khuda mere khuda' and ‘Chhote tera birthday aaya' work on screen. But the songs ‘Firangi paani' and ‘Lau jalee' were not needed. Editing and cinematography don't match up to values.

The film absolutely appears like a genuine attempt to awaken the young Indians to come forward and erase corruption from our politics.

Overall, it is an average film.
