How is ‘Salaar’ different from ‘Ugram’

Published by

Released on December 22, “Salar Part 1: Cease Fire” is making waves at the box office, receiving good reviews from early morning shows. The film’s success spans across all regions, with impressive collections. Notably, “Salar” has set a record for the highest opening day collections of the year.

Despite its success, discussions emerged among movie enthusiasts, suggesting that “Salaar” might be a remake of the Kannada blockbuster “Ugram” after the trailer’s release. While there are undeniable thematic similarities, director Prashant Neel’s approach distinguishes “Salaar.”

In both “Ugram” and “Salaar,” the narrative features a childhood episode where a young hero is willing to sacrifice anything for a friend. The heroes find themselves in remote villages, and the heroine, who hails from America, faces threats from certain groups.

However, Prashant Neel introduces a significant twist in “Salaar,” setting it apart from “Ugram. While “Ugram” involves a threat to the heroine from the underworld, “Salaar” introduces a fictional city called Khansaar. This key change and the creation of a new world add a unique dimension to the second half.

Director Prashant Neel acknowledges the homage paid to “Ugram” through certain aspects of “Salaar.” Addressing the comparisons, Prashant Neel candidly acknowledges the similarities between the two films, recognizing the inspiration drawn from “Ugram” in crafting the narrative of “Salar.”

The film, directed by Prashant Neel of the “KGF” series, successfully met expectations, marking a significant cinematic event.
