Trivia
Singer Harshdeep Kaur said, "when I heard 'Zaalima' for the first time, I knew this song would be a hit. It's a very catchy song and has a big recall value. For the first time ever we have heard the word 'zZalima' in a romantic song." See more »Goofs

In the UK, the film was first shown to the BBFC in an advice screening, with the intention of obtaining a '12A' rating. The BBFC stated that they would have to make edits to "a number of scenes of strong bloody violence", and the film was pre-cut prior to submission. However, the distributors had not edited the film enough in one scene, meaning that another 57 seconds were removed before achieving the desired '12A' certificate. See more »Soundtracks

I saw this film with my family in a theater. Didn't had any expectations. Typical gangster flick which had been done to death in Bollywood. Used to watch a TV serial with my wife starring Mahira n had been a fan of her since. Very typical, a poor kid works for some shady guys, later progresses n starts working for a bigger syndicate. One fine day the grown up boy (Srk) wants to start his own business n splits from the syndicate. Nothing new, except for some good one liners, good performance by Nawaaz as the cop hell bent on taking down all the bootleggers. As a fan of Mahira, i liked the footage she got. She was really looking very attractive in those dresses. Jus your typical masala gangster film. One very bad sequence of parkour. Srk running on rooftops was silly coz it wasn't executed well. It looked too fake. Watch District b13, Yamakasi, Tracers, Casino Royale's chase sequence, Chris Brown's parkour sequence from Takers. The shot gun scenes were decent. I still prefer Steve McQueen's The getaway shot gun scenes. The best gangster film in bollywood is indisputably Devgan's Once upon a time in Mumbai.
