Hansal Mehta on Radhika Madan in Subedaar: “Radhika Madan deserves better than what our cinema has given her so far”
SUBEDAAR is the story of an upright man in trouble. Arjun Maurya (Anil Kapoor), a recently retired Subedaar, returns to his hometown after the death of his wife Sudha (Kushboo Sundar), who passed away in a road accident a few months ago. He now lives with his daughter Shyama (Radhikka... Madan). At the insistence of his friend, Prabhakar (Saurabh Shukla), he takes up the job of the driver for Shashikant aka Prince (Aditya Rawal). He runs the illegal sand mafia in the region under the leadership of his sister, Babli Didi (Mona Singh), currently in prison. Both are quite dreaded in the region. Arjun feels disgusted by the way Prince behaves with him and others around him and quits in a day. The next day, Arjun and Prince get into an altercation over parking. Matters spiral when Prince vandalizes Arjun’s new car, one that his late wife had booked, and a furious Arjun beats him up and publicly forces him to clean the vehicle. As expected, Prince swears revenge. Hours later, Prince realizes he accidentally left his prized gun, linked to his late father, inside Arjun’s car. Meanwhile, Shyama locks horns with her college classmate Ranveer (Vikram Pratap) over the obscene videos he has been sending her. What happens next forms the rest of the film.
