Trivia:
Director Anurag Kashyap's friend Kay Kay Menon was the first choice for the main lead role but Kay Kay declined saying that he should cast an actor having stardom, so Anurag went to Shahrukh Khan. SRK agreed to do the film but when he read the entire script, he commented that he would love to work with Kashyap in the future but since this film promotes "anti smoking" feelings, he will not do it. This is where John Abraham who was the only other mainstream actor to have replied to Kashyap's sms entered the scene. Abraham loved the script and agreed to do it spot on. more

10/10
Author: enigma34in from India

eagerly waiting for this movie finally its been released some how i manage to see it on first day.I think it was the best movie i watch in 2007.The story is little bit complicated but its really gripping full of twists the background score and cinematography is awesome.Anurag Kashyap got the skill. I cant imagine that such kind movies will ever produced in India.Its an outstanding movie about which u keep thinking for many days.I fill really sad after reading reviews about film.another good movie going to be waste only because people don't understand it.i people here don't want and don't like to watch anything creative and path breaking.u cant compare it with "black Friday" both the movies deal with different stream. must watch movie defiantly go for it.
