Contemporary India. A majestic fort. A royal dynasty that no longer rules. A king without a kingdom.

Yet Eklavya [Amitabh Bachchan], their royal guard, lives in a time warp. He lives only to protect the fort, the dynasty and the king.

For nine generations, Eklavya�s family has protected Devigarh, a centuries old citadel in Rajasthan. His marksmanship is stuff of legends. His unflinching loyalty inspires ballads. Eklavya has spent his entire life serving the royals and closely guarding their secrets, but now he�s getting old and increasingly blind.

Unable to cope with the suffocating customs of his land, the heir, Prince Harshwardhan [Saif Ali Khan], has stayed away in London. But the sudden demise of the queen, Rani Suhasinidevi [Sharmila Tagore], forces the Prince back to the kingdom he had left behind.

The Prince�s return brings a rush of joy into the moribund fort. His mentally challenged twin sister, Princess Nandini [Raima Sen] and his childhood love Rajjo [Vidya Balan] are delighted to see him. But the joy of reunion is short-lived.

There is unrest in the kingdom: Farmers are being stripped of their lands. The king, Rana Jaywardhan [Boman Irani], influenced by his brother, Rana Jyotiwardhan [Jackie Shroff], supports the atrocities being forced upon the helpless peasants. The king receives a death threat over the phone. An irreverent police officer, Pannalal Chohar [Sanjay Dutt], is called in to investigate. But he might be too late.

The fragile peace of the land is suddenly shattered by a barrage of bullets. And amidst the mayhem, the safely guarded secrets of the fort are unveiled. What follows is a contemporary, edge-of-the-seat dramatic action thriller with a stellar ensemble cast � Amitabh Bachchan, Sanjay Dutt, Saif Ali Khan, Vidya Balan, Boman Irani, Jackie Shroff, Jimmy Sheirgill, Raima Sen and Sharmila Tagore.

The film marks the return of Vidhu Vinod Chopra, who directs after a hiatus of seven years.

Nice Movie 4 Star moviewatcher
 
This movie didn't get much commercial hype so I didn't watch it when it first came out. But I recently got it from Zdag and I was pleasantly surprised that this was a pretty good movie. It was different from the typical desi movie and much better than entertainment than those so called "comedy" movies.
 
Excellent 5 Star Ganapati Durgadas
 
Shows you what Bollywood can do when it sets it mind to it. A compact, hard-hitting indictment of lingering casteism, with a set of seasoned acting pros. Bachchan, of course, steals the show with his heart-rending precision portrayal of a guilt-ridden yet honorable low-caste traditionalist forced to carry the most intimate of secrets. I didn't find the romance angle distracting at all. In fact, it adds a poignant touch.
 
Nothing great 2 Star Miss
 
It started off well but then it flaters. Vidya-saif scenes also slows the pace unecessarily. Infact , there was no need of romantic track between the two. After sometime everything becomes very predictble and end was so hurried.
