The action sequence receives positive response
One of the biggest talking points surrounding “Blast” was the action choreography. The ETimes review said, “The best thing about Blast, however, is in the small details. For example, the biggest twist in the film doesn’t come from Arjun or Preity. And I know who you’re thinking, it’s not from Abhirami either.”
Instead, the film hands over the bulk of the action entirely to a fourth person, which makes for an interesting setup.
From Preity’s amazing introductory fight scene, the film has an action segment every five to ten minutes. However, they only become redundant in very few cases, thanks to dramatic and predictable fluctuations.Disclaimer: Box office numbers and data in this article are compiled from public and industry sources.
