User Reviews

Some seen is horrible

Taarzan: The Wonder Car was directed by brothers Abbas and Mustan Burmawalla. The film followed the duo's success on other thrillers, such as Solider, Humraaz, and Baadshah.

The plot involves a car designer (Ajay Devgan) who gets his idea for a revolutionary vehicle (called DC, his initials) stolen by a leading automobile company. The executives, conspiring with the police, have the designer murdered so they can steal his idea. They bind the designer and lock him in his own car-this one being an older car called Taarzan-which they dump into the water to drown him

Twelve years go by, and the designer's son (Vatsal Sheth) discovers his dad's car Taarzan in a junkyard. He obtains the vehicle and, with some help from his love interest (Ayesha Takia), turns it into a "wonder car." The son renames the car DC in honor of his father. Little does the son know, but his dead father's soul still inhabits the vehicle!

One spooky night, the spirit of the dead designer takes control of the car, which goes out and seeks revenge on those who murdered him. In the process, the miraculous machine shows how it can drive itself, rebuild itself after crashes, and even change shape.

In the end, justice is done, bad men confess, and the car designer's spirit ascends to heaven
