Plot- This movie is the same old police chasing and criminal hiding and ultimately the criminal caught because some woman wanted the love of his life to get back to “righteous life”. The story includes three sets of people the upcoming criminal gang which includes John Abraham and Tusshar Kapoor the already established gang which includes Manoj Bajpai and Sonu sood and the police which consists of Anil Kapoor, Ronit Roy and Mahesh Manjrekar.

He meets Tushar Kapoor who teaches him how to survive in Jail as the people who put him in jail wanted to kill him. He escapes from jail and becomes Maniya Surve a gangster with the aim to destroy the monopoly of Manoj Bajpayee and Sonu Sood had over the Bombay. He kills Manoj Bajpayee which ultimately lead to his demise.
Anil Kapoor and others are are honest police officers who wants clean Bombay from any kind crime and hence they devised a plan to kill Maniya in an encounter, the first of its kind.
Analysis:
The story of this movie is supposedly driven by real life events. Screenplay and editing is good and so is the cinematography. The character of John Abraham is the driving force for the entire movie but is really flawed. He is larger than life character but in reality not intelligent and smart and if the leading character is weak the entire movie falls apart. John has done justice to his role and has really improved when it comes to acting. Tusshar supported him well but he really needs to pull up his socks and learn some acting. Anil Kapoor as honest police officer is good but a really a hard character to believe. Sonu Sood and Manoj Bajpayee as gangsters are was good but their potentials are not explored to the fullest.
Kangna has been total waste but she looked pretty. Songs are really good but not apt for the situations. It looked that they have been forcefully put in the movie.
All in all a one time watch I rate it 2/5
