Sunny Deol’s latest but outdated film Big Brother is a painful throwback to the days when the heroes of Hindi films championed noble social causes by bashing and bumping the baddies.

One must commend the optimism of the makers of ‘Big Brother’ that they actually thought of releasing the film despite it being absolutely obsolete to the present-day tastes of cine-goers.

The film reminds of the days when Sunny played the ‘angry, angst-filled young man’ in a series of violent movies. To add to the torture, there are a series of pointless songs that come in quick succession in the film’s beginning.

Poor acting, horrible screenplay and shoddy direction put the last three nails in the coffin of ‘Big Brother’. Sunny Deol plays Deodhar Gandhi, a simple, good-natured guy committed to his family and girlfriend (Priyanka Chopra).

Deodhar’s is a middle-class family in Delhi. He has a mother (Farida Jalal ), brother (Imran Khan) and sister (Prachi). Things take a turn after a Minister’s son throws acid on Deodhar’s sister’s face. The family leaves the city and moves to Mumbai.
