Many films and web series have been made so far on education scams. Patna Shukla is also the next name in this series, this film is basically a courtroom drama with the background of education scam. The concept of the film is fresh and interesting, but the story and screenplay have not been able to strengthen it. The matter has remained superficial. The solid acting of other actors including Raveena definitely supports the film. Because of which the film can be watched once.

The story of a woman building her identity
This is the story of Tanvi Shukla (Raveena Tandon). He is a lawyer by profession, but his cooking skills are praised more than his court arguments. She has no complaints about this identity of a perfect wife and mother but she also wants to get the same respect as a lawyer. His life gives him a chance to get this honor when a poor student Rinki Kumari (Anushka Kaushik) comes to him with her case and he comes to know about a big racket roll number scam going on in the education department. She wants to expose the racket and get justice for Rinki, but it is not so easy because along with the university officials, powerful leader Raghubir Singh (Jatin Goswami) is also involved in it. Whose hand is the puppet system. Will Tanvi Shukla be able to get respect in her professional life? Will she be able to get justice for Rinki Kumari and punish those involved in this racket? How does Tanvi Shukla become Patna Shukla? This is also a further story.

Advantages and disadvantages of the film
There is newness in the concept of the film. The film looks like it is going to be a great film in its beginning. For some time in the beginning, the film even comes to the basic story, but then it becomes average. The lack of twist in the story of the film is sorely missed. The education scam has been shown very simply in the film. Along with this, the hero gets strength from the dangerous villain, but in the story of this film, the character of the villain has remained weak. Even in the courtroom scenes of the film, the drama of intrigue is missing, which could have made the story interesting. However, the film very subtly attacks the male mentality on how women are considered merely a means to enhance the glamor in the workplace or Raveena’s character’s husband ignoring her victory after she wins her first case. Well, at many places it also gives a feeling of Jolly LLB and Ek Banda Hai Kafi. Talking about the songs and music of the film, they are in accordance with the story. The cinematography of the film is simple. A little more work had to be done on the language and characters. In many words, it is not Patna but Mumbai touch is visible.

Raveena has closely lived every diversity related to the character.
The basis of this film is the character of Raveena Tandon and Raveena has lived every diversity of her character in every scene – a wife, mother, daughter as well as a lawyer who speaks boldly in the court. Manav Vij has done justice to his character. Anushka Kaushik has been good but she still needs to work more on herself. The fighting spirit of the character has not been reflected in his acting. Seeing Satish Kaushik on screen always gives a pleasant feeling. This film is also not untouched. The way he is shown leaving in his last scene in the film. He touches the heart. The script of the film has not been able to do justice to Chandan Roy Sanyal and Jatin Goswami, due to which the film does not give them a chance to do anything special, although both the actors have performed well in their roles. Sushmita Mukherjee and Raju Kher do justice to their characters.
