Review of Awarapan (2007) by Rockstarz_Naughtyfrendzz R — 13 Mar 2010

This one is my favourite Emraan Hashmi movie. Many will disagree and put Jannat or Raaz on top but to me this is the best as story syncs with Emran's character better than it did in Jannat or Raaz.

Emraan has style and substance. He enacts his role in Awarapan that every actor craves so well since the opportunities are limited because of typical bollywood masala genre. This movie might have same violent gangster, guns slinging, car chasing scenes but it is still Hat ke (different) which is only understandable when you see it. I will not go into detail as I intent to make my review spoiler free. Ashutosh Rana is superb as the eccentric Malik Sahab and so is Ashish Vidyarthi. Our B4U presenter Saalil also gets his début from this movie.

Powerful screen play and well written dialogues are a highpoint. Roxen did excellent job with music. Pritam weaved in 'To phir aoo' track in background as icing on background score. It will take you months if not years to get bored of its influential soundtracks .Emraan is underrated and it is time for Fimfare to illustrate actors like him when they are nominating, unlike the sons of other actors and over rated commercially successful same old ones.
