Again, as if aware of it, the film tries several techniques to be innovative and stay relevant to the times. There are groups of white men who want to destroy India. There’s a new explosive called Ophalasica (no way of knowing if I’m spelling it right) that according to the makers ‘is made of potash sulfur nanoparticles and can be kept under control only inside a vessel made of copper’. In fact, when a policeman is made to believe that he is deluded (a la Isai), the villain explains that he may be suffering from ‘illusion phobia’, as if it were some legitimate medical term. It’s just like the film: it thinks of itself as novel and impressive, but it isn’t.
