Well the story is not about cricket. Its not about Emraans hashmi's kissing image.....its his acting skills and the story which the movie is all about. Of late Emraan has proved himself to be developin as an actor and a good one too.

The story is about Arjun(Emran) who dreams big like any young kid on the block. But what makes him stand out is his desire to achieve what he wants. He feels he only needs a queen to come into his life and everythin will fall in place.

Enter the Heroine Zoya. She is a call centre executive. Emraan falls head over heals fo her and knows that she is his queen. She also falls in love with him and they start living together. With her presence in his lyf he keeps progressing and starts earning big time. But his eyes are on something big. The sky is the limit. He is noticed by a don as a bookie and starts earning big time and moves to South Africa. Thats where he starts making his Jannat.

But like they say nothing comes easy. He never says about his business to Zoya and when she realizes that he is fixing games for an underwolrd don who is funding terrorism she gets Arjun caught by the police so that he would turn into a new leaf.

When he comes out of jail he tries his best to turn into a new leaf but like it was said by Javed shaikh( the don)  "is business main incoming hain outgoing nahi" . Thats when the story moves very quickly and ebefore you know the movie is over.

The movie is a good attempt. The story line is not the conventional bollywood movie. It potrays that in this world one will have to have a dark side to earn money and be successful. But where the movie scores the most is the emotional quotient. I must say the love story was very well woven with the cricket. The scenes of Emraan fiixing games are well executed but at the end of it the viewer feels that there should have been a few more of them.

Its an out and out Emraan Hashmi's movie and yes he is maturing from single theatre audience ka hero to multiplex audience ka actor. I cannot imagine any other actor potraying this role. For the heroine sonal, she has done a fair job. Credit must be given to the Bhatts that they have unearthed a good director and given Emraan hashmi another good script (Gangster was another one). THey have had a good number of hits in the recent past and I am sure this movie will also be counted as one of them.

It might not be the blockbuster which bollywood is waiting for but this movie is going to stay with you for a long long time

nice movieeee...... the movie has shown the pracical things happning in real life belive me awsome movie the movie has also shown the true and hidden characters of the players. Of all I can say Now-A-Days really Cricket is disgusting ...baseless the players are focussing more money out of advertisement than Cricket...I have no respect for the players.I am very muck thankful to Maheshji who have really work hard to show the hidden character of the players.
