Fails to impress - the message is not clear.

Rating: 5/10 (29 January 2006)

The movie starts rather very promisingly, with a very different plot, and brilliant acting - but fails to impress in the later half, especially because of the acts done by the friends'. Though it captivates the confusion of Indian youth properly, it fails to deliver the message. The band is shown to resort to violent means as an act of revenge, which, definitely is in-appropriate in today's context. The director tries to re-tract on this act by a clarification from the actors' towards the end, but who listens? Since the medium is the message, and a movie delivers' a message very strongly, I sincerely hope that the Indian youth don't get the wrong message from the movie! Excellent acting, a different plot (in the first half), but overall a weak storyline. This could definitely have been done better!
