Sehar

This is one of few Bollywood movies which i have watched multiple times. The story is fast paced, acting top class and cherry on the top - no songs. I highly recommend this movie to anyone who wants to enjoy a weekend with a movie. Acting is top class not from the leads but from each and every actor in the movie. No actor used as prop.

A excellent cat and mouse game between cops and gangsters !!

The movie is so nice that i request everyone not to use pirated copy but use original so that bollywood learns the value of making good movie.

One suggestion: Do not watch this movie with friends/family/kids who can disturb you while watching it as you will end up getting angry.

One of the most valiant efforts from a débutant director. I went out to watch the movie as I had nothing else to do and with no expectation at all, and till date I have watched it 5 times!!! The story is inspired by real life incidents. A cop(Arshad Warsi) is on the hunt for a young mafia don(Sushant Singh). This simple story line is backed with some very powerful performances and brilliant dialouges. The handling of the script keeps your interest alive throughout the movie. The movie has some breath taking moments and it is sans any sort of melodrama, though there was ample scope for it.

Though all the actors have excelled in the movie, I would like to shower additional praises on pankuj kapur.What a performance it is, and what a tragedy that it will go unnoticed, as very few people have even heard about this movie!!!!!

This film by director Kabeer Kaushik, deals with organized crime in the northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh (UP). But it tackles this from a decidedly different perspective -- that of law enforcement.

The story involves an honest-to-death police officer who convinces his seniors that the only way to combat the mafia on their turf was to step outside the box, so to speak. The film depicts LE in a positive light, and successful in its strategy, despite usual political opposition. And in yet another departure, a good looking guy is cast as villain. He is effective except one doesn't quite feel like throttling him for all his misdeeds. Plot unfolds in a no-nonsense format and while the climax is not all that unexpected, its again different from convention.

Some of the positive points include a low-key soundtrack as compared to the Blare Fare of typical Bollyfilms. Good acting on the part of Pankaj Kapur and Arshad Warsi in a leading role. The pace could have tightened up a bit had there been fewer scenes involving the mother and the wife-to-be. Only a couple of songs serve as background to the score.

No need to keep pressing the >FF> button on the remote.

Set in the backdrop of Lucknow, this movies explores the rising of Organised Crimes in Uttar Pradesh and its link with politics and government machinery. Also a police officer's desperate measure to eradicate this evil and how the system goes against him and then comes at par to solve this menace.

This movie also shows the brilliance of the police officers in solving a crime done in a very new fashion, as of then. Also, the inter-connection of crime and politics and the weakness of system is depicted.

Based on the real lives of gangster Shiv Prakash Shukla and SSP Arun Kumar, this is a must see.

One of the fundamental problems with a lot of Bollywood movies is that they try to convey more than one story at a time. This movie steers clear of that trap (though there are some distractions) and delivers a clear and crisp story. I don't think the story is exceptional (though being from the law enforcement perspective is unique) but the delivery is what makes it engaging.

The actors are believable and the casting is quite well done. I think going for Pankaj Kapoor in his role was very sharp. Other picks were excellent too.

I hope there are more movies from Kabeer Kaushik in the near future.
