Pareeksha-The Final Test- Film Review

There is a Hindi saying “Keechad Me Hi Kamal Khilta Hai”. This movie follows the saying theory from the starting to end.  Prakash Jha's film examination also teaches the society with this truth that the talented son of a poor person also deserves a good education. However, lack of money, helplessness and social status stops the poor sections of the society.

The movie gives a message that actually, education is the only way through which economic condition of the weaker section of the society can be improved. 

Screenplay and Direction

Prakash Jha reined the movie as Producer, Writer and Director. He has done a recommendable job. He converted a simple story of a father who wish to make him study in a good English school into an extraordinary one with its mind-blowing screenplay.

Prakash Jha even did not think of big stars. He created a highly emotional and heart touching drama that would bring tears in the eyes of every spectators.

Prakash Jha has written a story after a long time and he keeps it very simple but presents it in a very effective way. He portrays the story of a father who wants to teach his son under any circumstances, get him admitted to English medium school, and make him stand out among the children of the big section of society and get out of the quagmire of poverty. 

Acting

Actors like Adil Hussain, Priyanka Bose, Sanjay Suri and Shubham Jha have made astonishing performances to make the Jha’s story real.  However, Adil Hussain stands apart from all other actors and has most probably done the best performance of his career. His emotions as father, as a Rickshaw puller and as a poor section of society are exceptionally well and beyond imagination. Adil single handedly takes the burden of the entire movie on his shoulders. 

Priyanka Bose as wife of a Rickshaw puller does his role with honesty. Shubham is also good as Bulbul Kumar however; he is very young and has to learn in the field of acting.

Sanjay Suri is as usual justifies is small but effective role. However, his role could be written in a much effective way. Seema Singh as Principle of the school is also impressive in his very small role.

Pareeksha-The Final Test-Film Rating

The film gets 8.1 rating out of 10 by IMDB users. Bollywood Products rates the film 8 out of 10 for its tight script, superb directions and outstanding performance of Adil Hussain.
