Cast: Nana Patekar, Vikram Gokhale, Mohan Agashe, Raj Zutshi, Gul Panag, Ashutosh Rana, Dilip PrabhawalkarDirection: Aejaz GulabGenre: CrimeDuration
Story: After his wife is murdered, encounter specialist Sadhu Agashe (Nana Patekar) goes into self-proclaimed exile to ensure his son's safety. But the home minister (Vikram Gokhale) wants him back on the job to tackle Mumbai's escalating crime scene. Sadhu returns, only to find himself playing into the hands of the very criminals he had set out to kill.
Review: Your heart goes out to Nana Patekar, who resurrects his role as an encounter cop and in doing so, lends utmost authenticity to his character. As a man torn between his duty as a cop and responsibility as a father, he singlehandedly strives to salvage what appears to be a poor remake of the gripping original (Shimit Amin's Ab Tak Chhappan, 2004) with his tremendous screen presence.

However, despite Nana's brilliance, the makers (who aren't associated with the original) let him down with their predictable plot, sleep-inducing screenplay, cliched execution and repetitive dialogues. Other than unimaginative writing, poor build-up of negative characters, unflattering camera angles (supposed ode to Ram Gopal Varma?) and lack of plot twists, make this a crime drama a half-hearted attempt.
Of course, there are scenes that hit the bull's-eye, like Sadhu's rivalry and sarcastic repartee with his junior (Ashutosh Rana)
