One of the most unusual things in Bollywood is a sequel or a trilogy. Ram Gopal Varma completes this circle with "D: Company". Another hard hitting and realistic look at the Mumbai (Bombay) underworld scene. Deshu is a Dubai-returned common man who gets involved in the gangster world and soon starts taking over established names in the business. This leads to peer rivalry and of course, endless daylight shooting on Mumbai streets. The movie takes another shot at the politics-movies-police-underworld connection without sparing anyone in the process. This movie has the "Ram Gopal Varma touch", as we have come to know it, written all over it.
His previous outing with "Satya" and "Company" were equally amazing although none can match the raw power Manoj Bajpai brought to Bhikoo Mhatre(in Satya) or Ajay brought to Mallik(in Company). In this one, Randeep Hooda makes an excellent job as the aggressive yet ruthlessly calm "Dheshu" or 'D'. This movie ends where "Company" starts. So, in a way, one can see this movie as a prequel to "Company".
Performance wise there are many amazing surprises. For one, Chunky Pandey makes an excellent comeback as Raghav - D's right hand man. Then there is the Varma favorite Isha Koppikar as his love interest. Goga Kapoor, Yashpal Sharma and of course, the talented Sushant Singh also chip in powerful performances. On the whole "D:Company" turns out to be another enjoyable Varma production.
Giving it a 10 out of 10 for keeping us in touch with the reality for once.

The movie has been shot well and goes in line with the story line. Whole subject is kept serious as this is a thriller. Randeep has been best with his attitude and his showcase as a gangster. Movie shows no non sense stuff.
I would rate this as a must watch for some who like COMPANY, once upon a time in Mumbai, This movie is a bet.
Finally this guys dint made much of his time during 2000-2010, but looks like some in the mumbai industry finally caught with the talent and his acting.
But now, after Ram Gopal Varma's "Satya" and "Company", after Mahesh Manjrekar's "Vaastav" and Hansal Mehta's "Chhal"? Nah, gives us this day our daily break... Enough about unwashed men washing their conscience in the blood of the slain. Enough of this swivel-and-snarl routine with blood-red eyes, slurring speech and smoking guns.
In places "D" glamorizes violence with disdainful words and crackerjack visuals to a point where you wonder whom the script supports.

If ur a typical bollywood drooler who thinks "item number+good cast+good location = hit movie" pls don't watch this. This movie does have a clichéd story line, "youngster wants to push his luck in crimeworld" but so did scarface and u knw it was only a hit after being released onto VHS, in early 90's.
D deals very well with the character of one man.one man who doesn't talk much and uses his brains and balls to go forward in the mafia.There is a scene in the movie in which "deshu" takes revenge on a policeman by actually not attacking him but instead keeping him in fear(u gotta watch that scene where he says to his gf how he will take revenge).
If u like "kisna" in place of "page 3" then this movie is not for u!

In the era when Shahrukh khan's over-acting is considered 'thrilling' and rated as top-notch by the Karan Johar circus... this movie proves that this new actor has the acting skill and confidence to make these over-hyped Khans run for their money.
This movie respects audience's intelligence and does not pursue the lowest common denominator by adding stupidly choreographed 'balle balle' songs.
This movie is about reality, it is about death and it is about the brutal war for survival. It is imaginative enough that doesn't bore the audience with obvious and unnecessary dialogue and director's clever use of music focuses on character's emotions and the underlying fear that governs everyone's behavior.
See this movie and compare it with the more 'mainstream' family oriented movies and you will see why RGV is one of the best director in the industry. Here the hero does-not cry, he is sober and mature enough to think and act. This the Khans will never be able to do.
10/10

A perfect movie projecting a man 'Desu' who finds opportunity in difficult time, makes decision rationally, lives by his own conditions, has Rules unsurpassed, vision unparalleled and perfection in execution. Ram Gopal Verma has given a new dimension to bollywood film making. Randeep Hooda has delivered very less dialogs but his portrayal of character is perfect. Controvercially its story of Dawood (Underworld don accused in 1993 Bombay blast case)and his Gang "D".Ramu also got some threatening phone calls for that. In the end of the film it summarizes character as: when, where and what he will do - nobody knows. thats why Desu is called D. Nobody could stop him. He made crime a business. Veiled politics and brought underworld into 'upperworld'.Even today 'D company's greatest rule is - "In business, your friend is your foe."
