Liger was supposedly shot in Telugu and Hindu simultaneously, but you can clearly make out that the dubbing is out of sync for most characters. Puri appears to have started with the intention of making a sports film but changed his mind midway to make a hotchpotch of romance and gangster genres. I was wondering if Puri would make Vijay wrestle with a crocodile too, but the contribution from the animal kingdom is limited to the cat family. Liger has a shaggy mane and a stutter; he has a father who was killed in a knock-out punch in the ring. I don’t know if Jagapathi Babu was unavailable to wear suits for this film in Las Vegas, but the honour goes to Chunky Panday. The romance between Liger and Taniya is so plastic that it should be classified as an environmental hazard.
Liger movie cast: Vijay Deverakonda, Ananya Panday, Ramya Krishnan, Ronit Roy, Chunkey Pandey Liger movie director: Puri Jagannadh
Vijay Deverakonda's 'Liger' revolves around an aspiring MMA champion, whose biggest enemy is stutter.Liger. Vijay Devarakonda. Karan Johar. Charmme Kaur.
This Puri Jagannadh and Vijay Deverakonda film is a mishmash of sport, action and drama in which nothing makes an impact.
At the start of the film, the protagonist says that he is not good at narrating a story, but he will try. [Mike Tyson](https://www.thehindu.com/entertainment/movies/mike-tyson-to-star-in-vijay-deverakondas-liger/article36694213.ece) has its moments, but coming at the fag end of a shoddily-written story, it is too little and too late. Chunky Pandey appears in a brief character that begins as glitzy and fizzles out. Once Liger’s potential in MMA is established, the story introduces the leading lady who is characterised as a dimwit who is both intentionally and unintentionally hilarious, and annoying. Was that Puri’s way of showing the power of women after a string of glam doll characterisations of the leading women in his last few films? Ramya can pack a punch as a courageous mother but she is mostly made to scream and shout. Here the characterisations and storytelling are so banal that it is tough to root for the underdog story. In the opening minutes of Liger, a voiceover describes the title character as a slumdog from the streets of Mumbai who is aiming to win on an international podium. Predictable scenes follow in which Liger is ridiculed by the students of MMA and he has to fight to earn their respect. Some sort of a reveal about Tanya’s true reaction to the mother’s angst comes much later but by then, nothing matters as the film goes on a downward spiral. Hailing from Karimnagar and raising him on her own, she has moved to Mumbai to see him as an MMA national champion; the mother and son make ends meet by managing a tea stall. She goes to the balcony and waves to the crowd in a manner similar to SRK from Mannat.

Directed by Puri Jagannath, Liger has great actors, with even Mike Tyson thrown in, but lacks soul.
In the top of the list of ‘what is he/she doing’ here, is Mike Tyson. The film also ends so abruptly that you scratch your head for a bit, trying to figure if you had accidentally dozed off and missed a few minutes of it. Her character looks strangely out of place in the movie and seems to be in a Student of the Year hangover. Maybe the lure of being in an Indian film is so strong that you’ll choose just about any film. The depth of her shallowness is so exaggerated that it’s comic and cringe. There is no sequence to the movie.

While critics have been appreciative of Vijay's efforts to excel in his role as a mixed martial arts (MMA) fighter, they are not finding much that is off the beaten track so far as the story and screenplay are concerned. Tyson has earlier played a role in the Hollywood comedy film Hangover. Boxing legend Mike Tyson has a cameo role in the movie. For lead actor Vijay Devarakonda, Liger is his launch vehicle to Bollywood and pan-India audiences.

Honest review of 'Liger' starring Vijay Deverakonda and Ananya Panday. The film is directed by Puri Jagannadh and also stars Mike Tyson in a cameo role.
I’d pick a brainless watch over a misogynistic one any day, so I guess Liger isn’t that bad after all (the bar is so low it’s six feet under the ground). Because the truth is worth it.) Liger is a chaiwalla who loves his country and is brought up by a really strong mother; one that he's very fond of. [Liger](https://www.thequint.com/entertainment/celebrities/liger-song-aafat-ananya-panday-vijay-deverakonda-rape-culture-reactions) (Vijay Deverakonda) is the perfect hero, but he has one seemingly huge flaw. My theory about this film being written by someone stuck in the early 2000s is proving right as the film progresses. Tanya is an influencer, and in a discussion with her friends about increasing engagement, she asks them to come up with “innovative ideas” by thinking of new hashtags, captions, and a bio… So Chunky Panday plays the role of a rich man who sponsors Liger’s trip to Las Vegas so he can compete in the MMA Championship. Mike Tyson might have many regrets in his decades-long career, but I'm sure this makes it to the top 5! It is the story of a man who wants to compete in the World Championship of MMA (Mixed martial arts). Our hero falls in love with a woman who is way too rich and out of his league, and also finds himself in a rivalry with her brother who is set out to kill him. This was the first movie I watched since the lockdown that was an almost full-house and I’d almost forgotten how great it felt. He does this to fulfill his mother’s wish, under the guidance of a very strict coach who specifically asks him to stay away from girls and not lose his focus.

Something is happening in one scene and suddenly the actors break into a glamorous song and dance sequence. The climax brings the much hyped cameo of Mike Tyson playing a fictional character called Mark Henderson and that, I feel, was the only saving grace. How can I not mention about the beautifully choreographed and elaborate song and dance sequences in Liger. For Ananya, I don't know if she was told what she had to do in the film. In terms of performance, no matter how good Vijay looks in every frame and brings his best to the table, the poorly written script with even worse execution terribly fails him. They try to balance it by cleverly placing a reference to Kabir Singh (Arjun Reddy's Hindi remake) and how men are egoistic and can't take no from a girl. With a screenplay so juvenile, story without a head or a tail, direction limited to showing the hero's moves in slo-mo, director Puri Jagannadh's Liger is extremely flawed and below average for the hype it created. The referee has announced the name of the fighter from India as the 'Slumdog from the streets of Mumbai', and the waving tricolour has evoked a sense of patriotism already. Moving on, Liger manages to get under the wings of his MMA coach (Ronit Roy), who lays down the rules clearly and at the top it is staying focussed and away from girls. Also, Vijay has had his share of troubles with Arjun Reddy that was tagged problematic and misogynist but Liger hasn't really learnt a lesson there either.

Apart from the fighting and dancing skills, both of which are exceptional, VD also sports a trendy stammer for no other reason except to give his character more hurdles on the way to the final victory which is snatched away by the most botched up climax I’ve seen in any cinema.

While it is indeed true that Telugu and Kannada commercial films are dominated by marginalisation and in-your-face contempt for women, and that Hindi cinema, despite its male dominance, offers far more space for realistic representations of women than these two Indian film industries, let’s not get on our high horse and pretend that the Hindi film industry is a paradise in this matter.

The hero describes her as a “khilauna” (toy) by way of an introduction.
