No matter how much years have passed and how many times you have watched this movie it still remains has a cult classic.This is the reason of the Big fan following of Emraan Hashmi.
Awarapan is One of my most favorite film.Great work from Emraan Hashmi.His and others acting and the making of the film make me compel to believe the story of the film.I've watched the film once more time with my friends and family.The theme of the film compel me to believe in love.Several scene of this film is really great.Music was also great.The music of the film is still my favorite.The film gave Emraan Hashmi another level...His style,speech delivery,attitude was really great.A great direction from Mohit suri.Hats off to the Awarapan team.We want Awarapan- 2......Keep it up Bhatt camp.Though Emraan's last a couple of film was flop so I think if Awarapan-2 will make,it would be better for Emraan Hashmi.
Well guys..this is one good movie you are not suppose to miss.a movie which really has a soul in it.the movie begins with a girl(Reema played by Mrinalini Sharma) being kidnapped and is trapped in life where she is a slave to Mittal(played by Ashutosh Rana..who is brilliant),she is in love with someone else but now has to lead a life of a slave to Mittal.Mittal asks Shivam(Emraan Hashmi)to keep an eye on Reema as he doubts whether she is carrying on with some one else.Shivam also has a past where he was in love with Aaliya(Shreya Saran)but was unfortunate to have her love for his entire life.when he meets Reema he remembers Aaliya's words of freedom.Shivam who works for Mittal is being told to kill Reema when he comes to know that she loves someone else.But will Shivam really kill her or will give her freedom?if he has to give her freedom of love then he has to face many consequences.for further story watch the ride of life...Awarapan.and yeah..u will be surprised with Emraan Hashmi's acting as he proves that he can be brilliant too..so enjoy
Awarapan was different, nothing same like other bollywood romantic craps..
There are a few Indian movies which are worth watching like Kalyug, Gangster, Rang De Basanti and this one..
Rating:
Action: 7 out of 10 (John Woo style)
Story: 7 out of 10 (Awesome story with a nice Indian culture touch)
Direction: 8 out of 10 (Mohit Suri did it again)
Originality: 4 out of 10 (Scenes taken from A Bittersweet Life)
Casting: 8 out of 10 (Emraan Hashmi, Ashutosh Rana, Purab and the Paki girl were amazing).
I give it 7 out of 10 overall.

Awarapan comes from the stables of ace movie mavericks, Mukesh Bhatt and Mahesh Bhatt, famous for crafting Bollywood's biggest musical hits, Zeher, Woh Lamhe and Gangster.
Shot in Hong Kong, Bangkok and Pakistan, Awarapan is an intense and compelling drama about love, passion and betrayal with a chart-busting soundtrack that features for the first time an array of top-notch music artistes from Pakistan.
Awarapan tracks the journey of Shivam (Emraan Hashmi), a godless heartbroken boy who has never known or felt love. In order to escape the ghosts of his tragic past, Shivam dedicates himself to serve his gangster boss in Hong Kong with unflinching correctness and loyalty. His boss trusts him enough to ask him to keep an eye on his alluring girlfriend, Reema (Mrinalini Sharma) whom he has kept away from the eyes of his adversaries.
Shivam's heart melts on seeing her innocence and vulnerability, as he is able to draw parallels with his girlfriend from the past (Shreya Saran). The atheist turns into a believer and begins smiling and responding to life. Reema gives Shivam reason to believe that she likes him. Existence begins to blush for Shivam but only till the reality dawns on him that Reema has a secret lover tucked away and was planning to elope with him. Her game was merely a smoke- screen created to gain freedom.
A shattered Shivam is in a dilemma on realizing that he has been heartlessly used - does he inform his boss or does he earn his wrath by helping his unrequited love to achieve the freedom she yearns for? If anything, 'Awarapan' showcases the acting talent of Emraan Hashmi. The actor steps out of his usual chocolate boy image and plays a very serious and intense role with full conviction. He may not be the deadliest looker around, but he sure does know the art of restraining and underplaying his characters. And his performance in 'Awarapan' proves that he is one of the under-rated talents in Bollywood.
Mrinalini Sharma overacts in certain scenes, but manages to play her part fairly well on the whole. Shriya Saran's acting looks very natural. She looks very comfortable playing the brief role she has in the film. Ashutosh Rana is another actor who delivers a superb performance.
Mohit Suri succeeds to a great extent in translating an interesting story on celluloid. There are many scenes and sequences (like confrontation between Emraan and Aaliya's father, or Emraan's final sequence with Ashutosh Rana) that are intelligently conceived. The cinematography is visually appealing and the music (by Pritam) is also good.
On the whole, 'Awarapan' is worth watching once.
