wow....Emraan at his best......
29 November 2010
In my opinion,Mohit Suri is one of the most underrated directors in Bollywood industry........I am not saying that his films are flawless....but there is a minimum standard to his films than just old wine in new bottle type Karan johar films....... his first movie Kalyug was a good thought provoking movie......was a great theme....but direction had flaws,nevertheless it was his first film.....basic problem of his movies are the sequences in the last part of the movie.....in most of his films,the climax portions are big letdowns.....like raaz,Kalyug,Crook....... But I can ensure that Awarapan is his best movie.....climax is handled very well....

now coming to the story.....Shivam(Emraan Hashmi) is part of the gang lead by Bahrat malik(Ashutosh Rana)which involves in illegal activities...Malik treats Shivam as his son.....Malik has the business of selling girls for prostitution......he encounters such a girl named Reema and has love for her....but he suspects that she gave her heart to someone else.....so he instructs Shivam to keep an eye on her.....on seeing her Shivam begins to have memories of his long lost love Aliyaa(Shriya saran)......But dangers lie for Shivam as he realizes that Reema is in love with a pakistani boy......will shivam be loyal to his master malik or will he help reema......this forms the rest of the story.....

Emraan dons the role of Shivam.....really great performance...refreshing to see him in a different role other than the usual womanizer roles he does......another surprising fact is that he does not have a kiss in this movie....

Ashutosh Rana also delivers an excellent performance as Bharat malik.....a great actor to look out for.....

Newcomer Mrinalani Sharma gives an OK performance......nothing to brag about....

Shriya saran has a short role.....she has nothing much to perform.....

all other actors had did there part well.....nobody disappoints..

Songs are the soul of the movie......all the songs are pleasant to hear...Tera mera Rishta song goes well with the flow of the movie......and in the climax parts it gives a certain effect to the movie....

Direction was gripping at parts......but Emraan-shriya romance scenes were hampering the pace of the movie...

Awarapan will not disappoint you in any way.......Its a nice movie to watch
