Anwar is the story of a young man who leaves his home in Lucknow and everything he knows in order to escape a world he no longer recognizes.
All he ever wanted was a love story. Instead, his mentor [Vijay Raaz] commits suicide and his best friend [Hiten Tejwani] and his one true love [Nauheed Cyrusi] betray him. Devastated, emotionally exhausted, he takes refuge in a temple, only to wake up the next morning to find his world turned upside down.
Mistaken for a terrorist, Anwar is surrounded by a host of characters who try and engineer the situation to their profit…
A rabble-rousing minister [Sudhir Pandey] pitches for the popular vote; Two journalists -- one a national TV reporter [Manisha Koirala] and the other a small-town scribe [Rajpal Yadav] -- look to resurrect their careers and, as a consequence, their lives;
A senior police officer [Yashpal Sharma] only wants to leave, but must first resolve the situation; The minister's sidekick [Pankaj Jha] has his own agenda; A movie director [Sanjay Mishra] is keen on shooting an item song on the location.
Some poignant moments that stay with the viewer are Anwar's relationship with his tenant [Nauheed], the sequences with his friend [Hiten] and the culmination to Hiten-Nauheed's story are sensitively handled.
Two tracks of "ANWAR" stand out are 'Maula Mere' [singer: Roopkumar Rathod; music: Mithoon] and another winning track by composer Mithoon again, 'Tose Naina Lagey' [singer: Kshitij]. The songs are sure to appeal to the connoisseurs of good music. Siddharth Koirala makes his second appearance in an author-backed role in ANWAR. He displays complete understanding of the character and handles it with élan. In fact, if there's one character you take back home, its Siddharth's portrayal of Anwar. |
