Angaar

This is a Hindi language film of the gangster genre with Jackie Shroff and Nana Patekar in key roles.

The film is highly underrated but actually was outstanding for its storyline and performances. With a gritty script and relatable situations in Mumbai where builders are always on the lookout to set up multi storeys via gangsters as the legal route is cumbersome. And gang lords running parallel courts and starting to see themselves as messiahs. And the real problems of the youth, of joblessness and fall into violence to protect their self respect. The film has it all elevated by excellent performances by everyone in the cast. Every character is shown in grey, with a human side to them. Nana Patekar is the cruel businessman bent upon revenge for his brother's death, but also tends to a mentally challenged child. There is a scene where his assistant played by Kiran Kumar has to convey the news of his younger son to Kadar Khan, and the loud wail of the gang lord father is unforgettable. All of those who played a part should consider this one of their best films! A must watch for gritty tough film lovers.
