“u0026quot;Bollywoodu0026quot;u0026#39;s cocktail version of Robert De Nirou0026#39;s 1993 masterpiece u0026quot;A BronxTaleu0026quot;. Even scenes that make no sense in an Indian setting have been plagiarized. And plagiarizing does not end in the storyline. The song numbers on screen are neither hum-worthy nor visually appealing. All you can do is keep guessing which songs they resemble. And possibly except for one, the other numbers are eminently forgettable.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eTHe characters all seem misfits, except Sanjay Dutt. Monishau0026#39;s role is an obvious afterthought with few appearances that hardly make an effect on the movie. The heavy multilayer suits in the humid Bombay weather complement the dumb screenplay.”
