About This Movie

Jwalamukhi from 1985 presents a gripping blend of action, drama, and thriller elements, all wrapped around a compelling narrative. The film dives into academic integrity, showcasing Jayasimha, a professor, who becomes entangled in a web of deceit when he tries to expose forgery at his college. The pacing has this nostalgic ebb and flow typical of the era, balancing moments of tension and introspection quite effectively. There’s a rawness to the performances that really adds to the atmosphere, capturing the struggle against institutional corruption. The practical effects, while not extravagant, serve the plot well, creating a tangible feel. It’s a lesser-known gem that reflects some of the socio-political themes prevalent in Indian cinema during the 80s.
