Film: Liger
Director: Puri Jagannadh
Actors: Vijay Deverakonda, Ananya Panday
Rating: 1/5

Here’s what 'Liger', the film, doesn’t lack: It takes serious ‘tashan’ to bring down (Mike frickin’) Tyson for a desi flick, and beat the hell outta him, eventually! Further, to hire Tyson, from a ranch with cowboys on horsebacks, and call him Mark Andersen in the movie — he’s not even afforded a celebrity cameo!

Where does this swag come from? An inherent belief in Southern style stardom of a desi, homo-erotic hero (Vijay Deverakonda), that male audiences will worship — watching him go berserk, beating up randos — while they flex their own muscles, on their way out of the hall.
