Amyra takes a bold step
We see influencers and celebrities endorsing countless purposes. But stumbling across personages who are actually trying to do their bit for the society or the environment is a rare phenomenon.
Amyra Dastur, is a name flaming in B-Town, not only for her role in movies like Rajma Chawal and upcoming Kangana Ranaut and Rajkumar Rao's Mental Hai Kya but also for her immense dedication in bringing a social renaissance and making the world a better place to live in.
She instigated to contribute her bit by associating with a non-profit organization called ‘World Of Animals’ who rescue and nurture the speechless species. The actress was a believer of co-existing with the strays and associating with the organization was the best way to do so. Amyra’s journey of piloting her good work didn’t stop here. Another subject that has Amyra’s attention since a long time now is the issue of food wastage.
Though every individual is aware that food is being wasted on massive scales and on an everyday basis, Amyra aims to tackle this concern in a more diligent manner. The actress is now associated with big food brands to create a win-win situation for both the brands and someone who is in need. Food brands waste heaps of foods as they cannot re-use left over for the next day. On the other hand, the poor cannot afford to buy nutritious food. Amyra intends to associate with both of these parties and create a balance by bringing the excess to the one in need. She is already taking steps towards this initiative by merging herself with various brands and entities. In this way, the agonies of both groups will be solved in the most cost-effective manner. She recommends that as a part of CSR, big entities can distribute the food to the deprived and unfortunate class for helping holds a higher value than wastage!
Amyra says, "“My mother is someone who always stressed on giving back to society. I just want to be clear that this isn’t charity but more of a stepping stone to help the less fortunate and our environment at the same time and I am doing so by going straight to the source which is the food brands. By associating with these brands, they’ve taken my plea to help the less fortunate very seriously and are tying up with various charities and shelters to supply them with the food that they have not used or is extra for them instead of simply throwing it away as trash. India is a country that still faces the problems of famine and malnutrition, my aim is to reduce the numbers in these categories as much as I possible can.”

Aiyaary rewiew 3*
Movie: Aiyaary
Cast: Manoj Bajpayee, Sidharth Malhotra, Kumud Mishra, Anupam Kher and Naseeruddin Shah
Director: Neeraj Pandey
Time: 160 mins
Stars: 3 out of 5
Cast: Manoj Bajpayee, Sidharth Malhotra, Kumud Mishra, Anupam Kher and Naseeruddin Shah

Director Neeraj Pandey’s latest thriller, Aiyaary, set against the backdrop of the Indian armed forces, is about a young officer who goes rogue after stumbling upon the Indian military’s murky goings-on.
But you get the distinct impression that it’s the director who’s scared of going rogue and demonising the establishment or the men in uniform.
Precious minutes are lost in explaining character quirks, eccentricities and idiosyncrasies of a clutch of military officers and a couple of well-dressed arms dealers. The dialogues between the idealistic and the corrupt are painfully stilted.
Direction is good by neeraj panday. He keeps the viewers engaged but makes it boring and easy written story in the end.

When it came to performances, it was seasoned actor Manoj Bajpayee who was in total command.
He plays the senior military officer Col. Abhay Singh and is a joy to watch as he sinks his teeth into the role of a staunchly scrupulous army officer. He has got the mannerisms and the body language of a disciplined soul figured out to the last letter. He’s the devilish head of a covert cell that thwarts baddies in his distinct cavalier style.
Representing the millennials is his dishy protege, Jai Bakshi, played by Sidharth Malhotra. But his character isn’t as fleshed out and what you get is an unconvincing army deserter. His reasoning for going berserk and outing his own mates lacks teeth. The climax, which explains his source of disillusionment, is hastily wrapped up. Till then, the over-stretched thriller is intent on over-explaining but the portions that needed that kind of adoration and attention were hurriedly done. The climax felt forced; it lets the whole film down. The portions where Bakshi romances the young woman Rakul Preet Singh, a nifty hacker, is unconvincing and lame. Singh looks fetching, but doesn’t win us over as a sly hacker.
Aiyaary also boasts some of the finest talents in Hindi cinema right now. There’s Kumud Mishra, Adil Hussain, Naseeruddin Shah and Anupam Kher in this ensemble espionage drama, but they are grossly under-utilised.
Hussain and Mishra, as the cold and soulless businessmen who are out to get the rogue spy, aren’t as sharp as their suits. Their seedy style of conducting business felt forced and unnatural.
Shah, who plays the token common man in Pandey’s socially-conscious Aiyaary, suffers from a serious A Wednesday! hangover. When he utters the veiled threat — ‘don’t ever provoke a common man’ to highlight his have and have-nots divide during the climax — the regurgitated sentiments from A Wednesday! come screeching back.
But your misgivings erode when you watch Bajpayee in action. His wry humour at world problems, delivered in his nonplussed manner, are comic gold.
Aiyaary is a toothless thriller about a clutch of morally-complex, dapper men-in-uniform who turn against each other, but the reasons for doing so doesn’t get enough play.
But its a film to watch once. I give it 3*
