Excellent Movie

Rating: 10/10 (15 January 2007)

Simply brilliant. Class acting and direction makes this movie stand apart. The movie is inspired from a real life current event but the way it has been related to pre-independence era and connected through the happenings and characters of today is marvelous. One feels like India has never been independent but on the other side, it gives a strong message that a common man is empowered to bring the change. He has to just stand up and do something. The message is loud and clear, and this movie was able to deliver it. The movie had a cult following and has changed the way people view Indian cinema. Its not a docu-drama. It was able to entertain at the same time. Nice music by AR Rehman. As an Actor, I think Amir Khan is one of the best among his contemporaries.
