vinpratapsingh SALUTE TO THE WHOLE TEAM of SHAGIRD. No match to this movie. Much better direction and production, 100 steps forward to Ab Tak Chappan. Again you need sharp mind to understand this movie and enjoy the reality of Cop System specially about Delhi NCR's Land Mafia and politics. A MUST WATCH movie. I have watched it at least 10 times till the date and this will be a better movie to watch even after 10 years as I know no one can make this kinda movie in future too easily. This the best movie I ever saw in my life so energetic with better pace than any Indian Movie. You feel like you are watching some of the best JASON STATHAM action Hollywood Movie. Even there are too less movies which can be compared as good as Shagird in Hollywood too. JUST A REAL ACTION, DRAMA movie and if you know a little about Indian Politics and system then any one can enjoy this. While watching this movie you will forget about pop corns. Film making 10/10 Direction 10/10 Cinamtography 10/10 Acting 10/10 ..............n..........10/10

varghesejunior Simple awesome! That's how I'd best describe this movie if words were limited. But words won't do. You've got to watch this film to know what I mean.A cop story against the corrupt system, which is so often covered in Bollywood, but with twists and turns and action scenes that you will NEVER expect, and awesome dialogue work by Nana Patakar will keep you hooked for the entire length of the film.Music is alright, the storyline is the best. There is no choreography.Seriously, this film deserved more attention.9 on 10 for Shagird.

saish746 Old and dated Shagird Nana Patekar plays a smart cop who is not honest but likable. He mouths smart and witty dialogues, Kills anyone for money, wires money to New- Zealand and takes the politicos by his stride. Ab tak chappan guys is more witty and plays more dangerously for more green bucks. But the buck stops here with loopholes. Haasil director Tigmanshu Dhulia who once made a good college - political drama, doesn't go strong with Cop-politicians game. Indeed he calls it Chor -police khel rahe hai. The casting was good from the likes of Dil se and Bandit queen and so was the screenplay. The witty humor and rustic north Indian touch were fantastic . Although a senior inspector mouthing those lines may look unreal but was good. The Tarzan one was really hilarious.The casts include Mohit Alawat, a tall and handsome hunk into the police with the unfading dearth of mysteries around him. He is one actor play best without dialogues. Other casts like Zakir hussein was brilliant. Looks like the casting director Tigmanshu Dhulia himself picked the whole casts from Ram Gopal Varma's factory and it strikes a general note. Anurag Kashyap tries hard to play a cool Allahabaadi criminal and mouths some silly humors too. He was fitted in the character. Only misfit was the female protagonist, Rimi Sen, who plays a modern journalist from Aaj-tak covering all king of stories and wears a spaghetti top. The loopholes continues with senior Inspector holding a press conference, in-charge of terrorist kidnapping case, cops beating terrorists in tihar jail, embezzling crores of cash crops and many more. But when I treat this movie as Masala action twister, it doesn't betray me.The twists are boggling but story is flat. Nana Patekar plays Hanumant singh like the way he is. He got most of the screen space and screenplays and he did quite a good. He lacks when he cries and fails completely. There was no need to bring the old muse Hrishita Bhatt for kissing old politicians, Thank God, we were saved from another item number.The music and background score didn't made and mark and went unnoticeable. Not so Far yet Not so Near.It lies in between Haasil and Charas.

fantastic_guyus This movie desperately tries to be "Ab Tak Chhappan" but fails miserably. Nana is brilliant as can be expected. But Mohit still remains a non-actor. The movie fails because of a convoluted script which tries to be smart & because of a totally inept & incompetent director trying to helm things which certainly seem to be out of his forte (whatever that might be). I had hoped this one would be at least enjoyable than the usual Bollywood trash (with Ranbir's Shahids Imrans Akshays, Salmans SRKs et al) but I was severely disappointed. I can now gleefully strike off the director from my "looking-forward-to" list.If you want to watch Nana at his 'cop best', watch Ab Tak Chhappan - good lil movie with a decent script. Avoid Shagird.
