I think this is needed to be told instead of directly alleging that the movie distorts the history on the basis of some articles written by a bunch of people.

Well, I think this edit should go in the second paragraph of the lead, because "worshipful tone" is an opinion and not appropriate for the opening lead sentence, which needs to be more neutral as per WP:NPOV.
It is sourced from the Indian Express article :
https://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/movie-review/swantantrya-veer-savarkar-movie-review-randeep-hooda-propulsive-in-reductive-one-sided-narrative-9228018/
"What we get is a detailed biographical sketch of Savarkar, the arc being drawn from his childhood"
"You could argue that Hooda’s intention was to right what he considers are historical wrongs towards his hero, and there’s not an iota of doubt of the near-worshipful tone the film bears towards the central character."

Proposed Second paragraph (of lead)

The film presents a detailed biographical sketch of Savarkar from his childhood, including the key events from his life, often in a near-worshipful tone towards its central character.[9] The film has been criticised for distorting history and for promoting one-sided agenda[8][9][10][11] but received praises for its actors' performances.[12][13] RogerYg (talk) 03:57, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

As per WP:WEIGHT, we need more citations backing your edit request. Grabup (talk) 09:28, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Shabby writing

The lead mentions,

The film has been criticised for distorting history and for promoting one-sided agenda ...

But in the body, we have nothing on either locus — the fundamental question of how did the film distort history has been left unanswered. Such are the perils of fixing the lead without bothering about the body. TrangaBellam (talk) 10:04, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
