Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe film had two endings; the makers felt the Indian audience will not fathom Amitabh Bachchan's character not getting justice. Hence the ending for the Indian audience had Amitabh repenting and being locked away by the police, the moralistic ending. The overseas ending shows Amitabh bribing the police and on the loose chasing Akshay Kumar and Arjun Rampal.
- GoofsThe employee who was beaten up is still shown to be working at the bank despite everyone knowing about him conning an old lady for months.

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.
