Trivia:
Actress Pooja Bedi was asked to shoot for the role of a film actress (playing herself). Pooja declined the role quoting "Apoorva did approach me and wanted me to play the part. But it's probably just a 10 second scene that didn't interest me". The role was finally played by 'Raki Sawant'. The makers were actually trying to add glamor to the film by showing that a film actress was shooting for a film nearby. whilst the actual fact was Pooja Bedi was actually shooting at Juhu and not Lokhandwala. A reporter 'Minty Tejpal' had come to interview her. When Minty was informed that a shootout was happening at Lokhandwala, he went straight off to the site of the shootout and abandoned the interview. more
Goofs:
Anachronisms: In the "Ganpat" song, Bombay's new name Mumbai is used, but during 1991, it was still called Bombay. Also, names of current Bollywood actresses Kareena Kapoor, Mallika Sherawat and Bipasha Basu are used who were not generally known during 1991. more
Quotes:
Javed Shaikh: I've told you before, I don't want to join the ATS. I don't risk my life for the police anymore.
Kaviraj Patel: Yup, now why would he want to join the ATS, he's got used to a cushy posting. Stopping guys and girls from kissing in the park! That's real police work!

Hard-hitting and generally effective, though flawed, 19 February 2009
Author: long-ford from India

This is a hard-hitting crime drama and generally works despite some flaws. Vivek Oberoi is impressive as a rising gangster with Sanjay Dutt the police officer who's after him. While initially appearing to be about police brutality and fake 'encounters', the story has a few twists. The denouement provided by Amitabh Bachchan is admittedly a touch simplistic. However, the action is gritty, and the film well-paced. There are a few discrepancies in the plot line. and some of the songs could have been cut. The climax is effective though it could have been better.
