Going by the lyrics of one of the songs in Tevar one understands that Pintu (Arjun Kapoor) is Salman ka fan and in the rest of the film he tries to do what Salman does best, herogiri. Pintu says he is a combination of Terminator, Rambo and Salman Khan and the Kapoor khandaan may believe that too but others would disagree, Arjun is still not actor enough to pull off what Salman Khan does.
Pintu stays in Agra with his family. His cop father (Raj Babbar) keeps telling him to stay away from trouble but that doesn't happen. He gets into some serious trouble after he beats up Bahubali Gajender Singh (Manoj Bajpayee) to protect damsel in distress, Radhika (Sonakshi Sinha) who is leaving for Delhi then for US because she doesn't want to marry Gajender Singh.
Amit Sharma's remake of the Telugu hit Okkadu (2003) comes too late to Bollywood. Times have changed and so have Bollywood movies. The era of small town politicians and goon films is almost over. Even Ajay Devgn has moved on from that genre now.
REVIEW: Hell hath no fury like a politician scorned. This stands true for the better part of India where every minister is a government unto himself. So you have Mathura's minister-cum-goonda Gajender Singh (Manoj Bajpayee) wooing collegian Radhika (Sonakshi Sinha). When she rejects his marriage proposal, he vows to get the girl by hook or by crook.
Tevar" is a remake of Mahesh Babu and Bhumika Chawla's Blockbuster Telugu film "Okkadu". The movie is about how a Kabbadi player rescues a girl from a dangerous faction leader, who is in love with her. Amit Sharma has adapted the same story with some changes in the screenplay to impress the Hindi audience.
The wonderful performances by Arjun Kapoor, Sonakshi Sinha and Manoj Bajpayee, lead pair's amazing chemistry, trendy music, beautiful cinematography, stylishly-choreographed action and dance sequences are the main highlights of the film, say the audience.
