I honestly dont have words for this movie. I have seen very few Pakistani movies. As a Indian we dont really get to see much work from Pakistan apart from their amazing Music and excellent Television serials and plays. This movie has really defined what a movie should be and look like. It is one of the best Movies in the entire subcontinent. I loved it. It was so not the cliche, typical formula movies that we are getting to see lately, enough of the girls in mini skirts and dancing in the streets. Lets tackle some real issues. Thats what this movie has done. This is what I call a grade A movie. I hope to look forward to more work from Pakistan.
What I liked about the movie:
There absolutely nothing that a person would hate or even dislike about this movie. Shan gave an excellent performance and really broke the mold of a typical Hero type that we see in Bollywood movies. People criticized him for being over weight... now let me ask you, what the hell does that have to do with his acting? He fit the role perfectly, his acting was amazing. Lets get out of the hero and heroin mentality. people are not like the heroes and heroins we see in our Hindi movies.
Shan is a person that at least I can relate to, he is more real to me than a chiseled Hrithik Roshan in some village.
What I didn't like about the movie:
There was nothing I didnt like
