A Sonnet of Heresy

Gangster - A love story

Zubin is the biggest star in Assam. And he had sung a song in this film. Ya Ali… That should be a good enough reason for all Assamese to watch the movie. And it was the single largest factor to pull me to theater to watch the movie. Well… let’s talk about the movie rather than Zubin. First thing – I went to see an action film and in the theater the first thing I se is ‘Gangster – A love story’!! The film has got a different touch…it own ishtyle! The film starts out with a shootout and then a flashback. A suspense - who killed whom and why? And then the story unfolds through a romantic relationship. Emran Hasmi in his `usual style’ romances the heroine who is the girlfriend of the Gangster Shiney Ahuja. The drama unfold when Ahuja comes to know what his lady is up to. He becomes a good man to win her back but then its too late. Emran carries on his good work at kissing scenes while the the Debutant Kangana is good in some scenes when she does not speak. But it is the Gangster Shiney Ahuja who does a grand job and much to the delight of all who praised him for Hazaaron Khwaishe Aisi. The music of the film is great and all the songs (four) are quite good and manages to carry the story further rather than being bagages. And the sad note – Zubin’s song is great but probably not as good as `Bheegi bheegi’ and ‘Naa jane koi’. And yeah he does appear in the film. Aanurag Basu's Gangster wont match his Murder in terms of Box Office success, simply because it has no USP.
