Cast: Ajaz Khan, Vicky Ahuja, Javed Hyder, Maarisha, Aksshey Varma
Direction: Zubair Khan
Genre: Crime
Duration: 1 hour 56 minutes
Story: The film revolves around the lives of three friends-cum-petty crooks whose biggest crime is the fact that they reside in Mumbai's notorious area, where nefarious activities of the organized-crime syndicates take shape.
Movie Review: Along with fooling people, getting into altercations, fist-fights and wandering around aimlessly on the streets of Mumbai's 'high-risk' areas, Fakeer (Ajaz Khan) dreams of becoming a taxi driver in Dubai, Chotu Mobile (Javed Hyder) wants to set up his own mobile shop and Sulaiman (Vicky Ahuja) aspires to become a politician. However, their destiny is determined by their controversial residential address instead of their desires.
The film is apparently based on real life incidents. Fakeer's character is loosely based on Irfan Chindi, a resident of Nagpada, who reportedly became a police informer. He was stabbed to death on April 3, 2009.
Though the Mumbai underworld is used as a crucial backdrop for the film, it is essentially a tale of three friends, driven by unprovoked aggression. The Mumbai mafia becomes inconsequential as the film progresses.
While the underworld has always inspired filmmakers, films on police informers have been rare. Made with a humble budget, the film manages to showcase the dilemma of those who get caught between the cops and the gangsters.
