The husband-and-wife team of Karan Malhotra ( who directs) and Ekta Pathak Malhotra ( who adapts) doubtless sensed the underlying melodrama would translate easily into Hindi. Again, the focus is on damaged men – a father and his estranged sons – who can only truly express themselves through violence, although the Malhotras have reconfigured the relationships.
Their retelling opens with the father ( Jackie Shroff) , sometime boxer-turned-greying drunk, emerging from jail, before introducing “bad son” Monty ( Sidharth Malhotra, no relation) , a pushover in this version, and “good son” David ( Akshay Kumar) , a fighter-turned-teacher returning to the ring to fund an operation for his sick daughter. I won't explain the full movie tho ??
