The filmmakers presented 'Samrat Prithviraj' as one of the best bollywood period movies of all time, but it is clearly not.

[{"selector":"#anim-8eea4b9a-e540-474f-bc61-8968d936124b","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-1e15eb88-8cdd-4be9-a251-453a6e675e69","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 147.98711%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-dbaf2ce2-c3f9-4de1-ae0a-a145280f0ab7","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-b6afb914-a4e6-49c6-b34b-7aef8ccafc23","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-134.78265%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Movie's story is based on the Indian Hindu Ruler of 12th century "Prithviraj Chauhan".

Screenplay & Cinematography has a lot to offer but the colorful portrayal of a historical drama is hard to digest.

[{"selector":"#anim-354f6b4d-9612-4928-821a-5601e90dfe25","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-4698d1d4-7f2d-4640-8227-e03ab5b434d8","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 159.83692%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-c4036da9-668f-452b-babe-1935bfc0e7df","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-93285878-fd3f-48a7-9c0a-6aceb7f8888d","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-134.78265%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Apart from Sonu Sood no other actors justify their roles. Manushi & Sanjay Dutt failed horribly in delivering the best of their character.

[{"selector":"#anim-d0520595-93c5-41bd-b882-405a94b129ab","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-403bfeb9-d55a-47f7-bfe9-54e7d6a30568","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 142.81275%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-67d29a43-cb57-41fd-a386-cb7d4efd63b5","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-d55375e4-940c-468e-9a2a-cf8a34f2e9c2","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-134.78265%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

The best part of the movie is its climax, Akshay is quite impressive in the last segment.

[{"selector":"#anim-1cc4d50c-8368-45b8-afff-3d802d8ffe83","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-53fcde26-f225-4d1c-972e-4c51da570e46","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 159.83692%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-36b8bb8a-0ae9-4da2-82cc-489ed3e6f26b","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-f3731e6c-37fa-445e-bd34-e78195bae39b","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-134.78265%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Overall, the movie didn't match its hype & just a normal watch for the audience.
