MSG The Warrior Lion Heart is a 2016 Indian science fantasy adventure film co-directed by criminal religious leader Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh and his daughter Honeypreet Insan. The film starring Singh, one of the directors himself, is a story of a medieval warrior fighting against aliens for the honour of his land.

The film premiered on 6 October 2016 in Delhi and was released on 7 October 2016 in Hindi, with dubs in Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and English. Singh is credited with work in thirty film departments, including choreography, editing, make-up and hair design, background scoring, and prop design. The film has been criticised as a propaganda film by several critics.

A sequel, Hind Ka Napak Ko Jawab: MSG Lion Heart 2, was released in 2017.

Synopsis

The story is about a medieval warrior who fights for the honor of his land and the dignity of the womenfolk. The story travels centuries apart as he emerges in another role as a modern Indian equivalent of James Bond, a stylish top secret agent. The marauding aliens run amok, as they are hundreds of years ahead in technology. Lionheart is their only stumbling block in their march to overpower planet Earth.

Critical reception

Devarsi Ghosh of India Today wrote "MSG The Warrior Lion Heart is not a film. Like the previous MSG (Messenger of God) films, this too is a propaganda piece made by the subject of the said propaganda, Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh himself". Mihir Bhanage of The Times of India gave it 1.5 stars out of 5, describing the film as indicative of Singh's self-obsession. Bhanage wrote, "It takes guts to roll out such preachy and glorified films, but the saga continues with a devil-may-care attitude."

Anshu Lal of Firstpost described the film as "horrible". Specific criticism was centered on problems in storytelling, such as the use of pop-up video. Lal wrote, "Because without that pop-up, how would the poor audience comprehend the concept of background narration, right?" Lal also criticised the plot, the acting, and the cartoonish nature of the film. Namrata Thakker of Rediff.com gave it half star out of 5, and wrote that it is only for die-hard fans of Singh's. Aakash Karkare of Scroll.in wrote that movie is every bit as terrible as you expect it to be.

Box office

According to The Times of India the film collected approximately ₹32 million in its first weekend with an estimated total of ₹46 million after five days. Box Office India tallied the worldwide gross at approximately ₹176.7 million. According to Bollywood Hungama the film collected approximately ₹1.13 million in just one week.
