Aurangzeb (Hindi)
Release Date:
May 17, 2013Gurgaon is the most modern boom-town of 'India Shining', the new frontier to be conquered by those who understand real estate. This city rose from a small town to a boom town satellite city in just fifteen years.
However the law and order is yet to catch up.
A family of Policemen...A family of Gangsters...
Under the guise of a respected citizen, Yashwardhan (Jackie Shroff) runs a parallel world a world, where he is the Emperor.
To bring down a criminal... the law will have to now think like a criminal!
When Vishal (Arjun Kapoor) is planted in Yashwardhan's world in place of Ajay (Arjun Kapoor), the lawmakers (Rishi Kapoor & Prithviraj) roll the dice and a sequence of events unravel something much more than what Vishal bargained for, as he finds himself in a predicament that puts him to the test!
Aurangzeb is all about a world where Kingship knows no Kinship and where there can be only one Emperor!
Aurangzeb makes the corrupt cop theme interesting. For that itself, it becomes worth a watch despite being a little drab and a little stretched out in the end.
Aurangzeb is a pretty decent watch, for all you lovers of well-paced action/crime dramas. Do not go expecting finesse and you will not be disappointed.
Arya, an honest Gurgaon-based police officer, sets up a coup in which he replaces a pivotal member of a gang with a look-alike. However, the coup goes kaput!
Although the cast members (Arjun Kapoor, Prithviraj, Jackie Shroff, Rishi Kapoor, Sikander Kher and Amrita Singh among others) have delivered stupendous performances and the cinematography is first-rate, the film falls flat owing to its convoluted screenplay. The writer tries to mix up too many sub-plots and twists, making the film a very complex and an exhausting affair.
