One of Bollywood’s movie is entitled Boom Hindi movie. This was directed by Kaizad Gustad who made the biggest hit in most of his film. It talks about passion, sex and action thriller. This focuses on three hot supermodels who have clothes to consider with glamour and elegance. Trouble starts on one of the fashion show where a treasure was stolen by goons. This became the focus of the plot having three gorgeous models in tricking goons to recover the stolen treasure.

Boom has a centerpiece that was placed in the middle of the story. It has the interest that draws back the crowd into the screen. This picture captures the attention and awareness of the viewers as the director’s guts on combining hot sexy and thriller action in one film is possible. This has become a different picture that the film outfit has ever shown. Soundtracks talk on what the script tells about. It could give you the melody that sang your heart out.

Movie critics have given an average rating on this movie as it lacks the climax. It loses the narration of the plot in the middle of the story. It has confusing scenes between three supermodels and goons. They have reviewed that this hasn’t blast what the audience expects. The casts’ performance is better but the sequence of the story evolves only in the first phase of the movie.

Although, many have given negative feedback on Boom but still it didn’t mean failure on Bollywood as it inspires them to do film that could correct the mistake of the previous. Critics are not done to disappoint the director but it is made as a challenge on his part.
