Big B does it again in style.
We remember the times when he used to do all this fast paced action flicks. He is simply outstanding.
The plot of this movie is quite original. Bachchan plays the role of retired Indian Army Colonel Suryaveer Singh who is called to Bangkok by Shekhar (Arjun Rampal) for an assignment. The assignment in question is to be the bodyguard of an eight-year-old, Anamika (Rucha Vaidya). Anamika is the only daughter of a millionaire couple (Vikram Chatwal and Perizaad Zorabian). The spate of kidnappings in Thailand leaves the couple with no option but to look for a bodyguard for their daughter. Anamika's mother prefers a bodyguard who would be a friend to her daughter as well. Suryaveer's past haunts him. During an engagement with terrorists in the Kashmir Valley, Suryaveer accidentally shoots dead two children. Rucha Vaidya matches Amitabh through the first half of the movie as she breathes in life into the dead soul of Suryaveer and gives him a new meaning to life. But hell breaks loose when Anamika is kidnapped by a notorious gang (Raj Zutshi plays the gang leader). Bachan promises to secure her and swears to bring the culprits to book.
The first half of this movie is very pacy, thanks to the beautiful cinematography and apporva's screenplay. Dialogues are quit good. Among the brilliant scenes, are the kidnapping scene which is exceptionally executed leaving the viewers spellbound. The second half gets a bit slow, but in the climax, viewers will be surely surprised by what they see.
The music of this movie is funky. The song ''Dil ko chura-- mamma told me'' is a good one. The song ''Tere Liye mere saanseh...'' is also nice and soft.
Among the performances, raj zutshi and perizaad are excellent. But the two who really lift this movie, are the pillars of the film, Amitabh and Rucha. They both have delivered spellbound performances.
I recommend this movie to everybody. It is a must-watch!
