Storyline

Vijay Singh Rajput (Amitabh Bachchan) is a quirky manager of Vilasrao Jefferson Bank. He is extremely strict at work and believes in pushing his workers to the limit. This means that his superiors hold him in high regard for his unblemished reputation and excellent track record. But things go terribly wrong for the honest bank manager when he finds one of his own employees trying to con the customers. At this, he loses his temper and gets physical with the employee. This doesn't go down well with his superiors and they decide that Rajput is now a liability to the bank and they sack him. Amitabh can't believe the Board of Directors and his mind is filled with revenge and what better revenge than robbing the bank himself, ironic as it may sound. He decides that he must think of a plan that will hit the bank where it hurts the most - in its safe where all the money is kept. Rajput blackmails Neha (Sushmita Sen) to use her professional skills to help his plan, to train three blind men to ... Written by Anonymous

An exciting movie filled with many twists and turns.
29 March 2006 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

Aankhen is an Indian movie, the story tells of how three blind men rob a bank.The movie was absolutely fantastic.It had a lot of twists and turns along the way, and kept viewers on the edge of their seat never knowing what was going to occur next.

Vipal Shah did a great job directing this movie.The story was simple, yet how it was told was nicely done.Each character had an interesting story of how he lost his sight.

Great music, an exciting story, and great acting makes this a must see for people who understand Hindi and foreign movie lovers alike.

10/10
