When we have assimilated the rave views let's look at the glaring goofs in the film!It starts with a flashback of a mother's memories but in the flashback are intimate details and very private matters about her sons which she never saw!Okay let's forget about that!the director must have gotten confused! Now take Vijay's slim, slender body and his first fight with the dockyard gangsters behind locked doors!He is beaten with a spade,not a plastic one, yet whereas a normal man would surely be out for several hours from such blows Vijay seems to gain strength from this beating!The acting is superb of course as well as the script but the ideas are taken from Hollywood as usual.The slickness of the movie hood-winked the plausible public but it would have been a better movie had there been more realism like the true facts about Haji Mastaan!He was not simply a smuggler but a champion of the weak and helpless of Bombay and especially the Muslims!Somewhere in his youth he was humilated,beaten and disgraced by the Hindus and took to crime to settle that account and give the Muslims of Bombay protection.
