IMDB 7.1/10
First of all, a warm welcome to Priyadarshan and Akshaye Khanna.
Priyadarshan had stopped making good films years ago, he was busy making
guaranteed super flops with Mr. Kumar. Akshaye Khanna had disappeared
from films long time ago. Both have made a good comeback with Aakrosh.
And, after a long, long time, bollywood has come up with a brilliant and
meaningful movie. Aakrosh deals with the honor killing that has been
prominent in a few villages for the past few years. The movie also
discloses the actual truth behind these alleged honor killings and the
real culprits behind them.
Three students from New Delhi are found missing from the village
called Jhaanjhar for the last two months. Two CBI officers ( Ajay Devgn
and Akshaye Khanna ) team up to find out the truth behind their
disappearance. The Jhaanjhar village, crowded with numerous corrupt
politicians is terrified with the attacks going on and the police force
under the Superintendent officer( Paresh Rawal) does nothing. The CBI
officers have had time doing the investigation as no one in the whole
village is gutsy enough to speak against the attacks and the one who
tries to open his mouth is abducted by those groups. Ajay Devgn, the hot
blooded, loses his cool and takes some strong actions and Akshaye
Khanna, the man with the brain, takes his chances and gambles. Hard work
pays off well in the end and the truth finally comes out and the
village then rests in peace.
The movie has taken its inspirations from the recent cases of honor killing but on the whole it’s a work of fiction.
Acting Department is ruled by Ajay Devgn and Paresh Rawal. Both are
in top form in this movie. Both are trying to outdo each other with
their strong expressions and dialogue delivery. Akshaye Khanna, too has
acted well but Ajay Devgn and Paresh Rawal are the show stealers. Reema
Sen does well. Bipasha Basu is wasted. Action Sequences are top notch.
The chasing scene between Ajay Devgn and a group leader is outstanding.
Dialogues are awesome. A few of them even manage to bring a smile on
your face and compel you to clap and praise! Cinematography is average.
Editing could be better. Priyadarshan has directed the movie splendidly
this time. He is sure to win many accolades this time. The only absurd
part of the movie is the romantic song between Ajay Devgn and Bipasah
Basu.
To conclude, I would say go for it as finally a good Hindi movie has
arrived (which actually is rare ) and for super strong performances of
Ajay Devgn and Paresh Rawal.
My Rating: 8/10 Thanks and Regards.
