SYNOPSIS: Kisaan is the story of.Dayal Singh played by Jackie Shroff, a farmer and his two sons, Aman played by Arbaaz Khan and Jigar, played by Sohail Khan. Strapped for money, Dayal Singh decides on educating only one of his sons. And the natural choice for him is Aman, a bookworm. Meanwhile Jigar continues to live with him and help him in farming. As the years unfold Aman goes on to become a city-bred lawyer who is practical and Jigar turns out to be a happy-go-lucky man who takes everything at face value. During an all-important Panchayat meeting, a shrewd businessman, Sohan Seth played by Dalip Tahil, offers them a huge sum of money for their land. Dayal Singh refuses as he considers his land his mother earth. Post which, Dayal Singh is insulted deelpy by the village mischiefmaker, Nirmal, on behalf of Sohan Seth. With his pride hurt Dayal Singh looks to his elder son, Aman to avenge him. While Amans solution is to go to Court, when Jigar learns of the act, his reaction is brutal yet simple. As a result, Jigar ends up in jail while elder brother Aman shifts to the city and ends up working with Sohan Seth. The difference in ideology is further displayed when Aman is ready to sell the land but Jigar is not. DIRECTION: Puneet Sira has directed Kisaan. This is his third film after I - Proud To Be Indian & Jai Veeru. While, the intention was to make a film that upholds the values of honesty and simplicity that are so misplaced in this time, the director cant seem to overcome the weaknesses in the script. SCREENPLAY: The story is by Sohail Khan and the screenplay a joint effort by Vekeana Dhillon & Sohail. Though it tried its best to highlight the grievances of the farmers in the country it doesnt quite manage to do so effectively. MUSIC: The music has been composed by Daboo Malik, who had also created the music for I - Proud to Be Indian. Most of the fare is average but certainly the new avatar of Mere Desh ki Dharti by Daler Mehndi has been generating quite a response. VERDICT: Kisaan was an interesting topic to choose. But it needed deeper research and understanding of the plight of the farmers. Plus, simply routine acting by the leading stars and a weak script leaves you asking for more.
