Emraan Hashmi plays a BRILLIANT knock in a totally one-sided match!

the film ultimately belongs to Emraan Hashmi. It is his sincere performance (even though his Hyderabadi accent go on and off as per the convenience of the script), that makes us invest in the film.

The Emraan Hashmi starrer has been made to clear the real player�s name

This could have been a great cautionary tale about a great sport at a time when it was just becoming the arena it has grown into�full of big money and glamour, bigger endorsements and never-ending temptations : it is, instead, an inept �tamasha�, not very different from the stuff Bollywood churns ou...(more)
