A movie which is a true inspiration for every Indian to seek glory in its rich cultural heritage has mooted the intricate complexities behind fear driven violence and spilled the beans of the aftermath which is consequent to its execution.
The cosmopolitan city renowned for its commercial prowess is seen manifesting a spate of violent blasts which trigger off the security issues for the common masses.
The blast in the local train demonstrated high scale blood shedding of an umpteen number of people which gets escaped by one of the leading actors who prefers travelling in local trains due to its practical convenience.
The demarcation between the two communities who fought together iwith relentless courage against the British and eventually witnessed the independence of the nation is explicitly
depicted in the theme as one of the actors who happens to be a Hindu goes on to expect Muslim involvement in the blasts and goes ahead to investigate the activities of some of the Muslims operating in the region known to him.
Soha Ali Khan enacts the role of a typical news journalist who believes in the practicality of her profession and is an emerging front runner in the field of journalism.She is seen in love with
a man whom she is recently going to get married but fate plays a deadly game with her by ending the life of her mate in the serial blasts.She becomes devasted by the unbearable misery of his sudden disappearance from her life and is incapable of coping with it.
Inspite of the negativity hovering around the nook and corner of Mumbai, the city which never sleeps is portrayed as the land of ultimate courage where people take miseries in their stride and go ahead with their respective lives.
The life of a policeman is also shown quite aesthetically and how they deliver their duty during times when ethics begin to overpower the crude reality of the practical world.
At the end of the day one may summarise the movie as a window to the harsh reality of the external world and the undettered courage humans exhibit to face the unforeseen turmoil...........
