Madhur Bhandarkar turns his attention to the world of business in this tale of corruption and betrayal. At the centre of the plot is the rivalry between two FMCG giants, headed by Sehgal (Rajat Kapoor) and Marwah (Raj Babbar). Nishi (Bipasha Basu) is a VP at Sehgal's firm and Ritesh (Kay Kay) is Sehgal's brother-in-law.
For about 1.5 hrs the movie is a mish-mash of glimpses into the world of power, money and sex. Anything goes here - from collaborating with MNCs and buying privatised PSUs to manipulating the market, espionage and bribing politicians. The story really kicks off in the last hour, when the Sehgal firm's new soft drink is found to have dangerous levels of pesticides.
Nishi and Ritesh find themselves at the mercy of events that are too big for them. They are 'collateral damage' in the high stakes war between the powers-that-be. Bhandarkar is in familiar territory when he portrays individuals who are caught in circumstances beyond their control. The uncompromising ending will remind you of 'Chandni Bar'.
Kay Kay is solid (as usual). And Bipasha shows that with the right script and director, she can act. Watch it!
