Aitraaz

Aitraaz is a romantic thriller film directed by Abbas-Mustan. The film stars Akshay Kumar, Priyanka Chopra, Kareena Kapoor, Late Amrish Puri, Annu Kapoor, Paresh Rawal, Late Vivek Shauq, Preeti Puri and Upasana Singh.

A married man is falsely accused of rape by his ex-girlfriend who is also his employer's wife. This motivates him to sue her for sexual harassment despite societal pressures with the help of his lawyer wife.

This film which is based on a very bold but social subject of sexual exploitation of a male by a female which is much more relevant today's era with rising number of fake cases on males by females. It doesn't means that all the cases raised by females are untrue but this is also a truth that some females has started to use this as a weapon against the males, now let's come to the review of the film. As mentioned that the subject of the film is very bold and were ahead of it's time the execution of the film is also decent to most of the time apart from the climax as the climax of the film looks more dramatic and doesn't convinces much.

The plot inspired from a Hollywood film is executed nicely and is been strongly supported by some great acting and melodious songs. Akshay Kumar is one of the most versatile actor and can fit in every role was very clinical in his performances, kareena Kapoor was also stunning and impressive, Priyanka Chopra was very very impressive in her role and almost outshone the main leads. I would've loved to see Amrish Puri and Annu Kapoor little more on screen but they were impressive in their limited screen presence.

Screenplay of the film is impressive and evenly paced. Cinematography is beautiful and BGM is impressive, Climax as mentioned could've been more refined and convincing.

Overall a good film on a bold subject and way ahead of it's time. Can be watched once.
