A realistic film on Bombay's underworld, 13 March 2000
10/10
Author: Rahul (patel_rahul) from Anaheim, California

This film was India's official nomination for the Academy Awards. Jackie Shroff was awarded the Best Actor award at Filmfare Awards. Superb acting by Nana Patekar as Anna, the underworld boss. Supported by a great cast of Anil Kapoor, Madhuri Dixit, Suresh Oberoi, Anupam Kher. Great songs too.
