Lahore, a movie based on Kick Boxing, is directed by Sanjay Puran Singh Chauhan. The film is produced by Vivek Khatkar. The film speaks about sports which brings two countries, India and Pakistan together. The film has a huge star cast which includes Sushant Singh, Farooq Shaikh, Nafisa Ali and Kelly Dorji.
Veerendra Singh (Aanahad) is a budding cricketer who is set to break into the National team. His brother Dheerendra (Sushant Singh) is an established kick-boxer who catches the eye of the Indian Kick-boxing Federation with his skills. At one point, Veerendra, too, played the sport but gave it up because he felt it did no justice to sport. The relationship between the two brothers is established with Dheeru's girlfriend Neela (Shraddha Nigam). The trio paint the town red with their camaraderie. Dheeru, after knocking out five times National Champion Gajanan (Kelly Dorji) is selected to represent India at Kuala Lumpur. That's where the story takes an unexpected turn.

Usually on seeing a film having the subject of India and Pakistan, we think how it would fare and what the movie would depict. The mass civilians look for a good sport but sometimes a a good intention can backfire as well. But this movie is made with such clarity in mind and doesn't show that one nation is inferior than the other. In fact its a film that will be likes by both countries respectively.
Newcomer Aanaahad has a tailor-made role that is sure to get him rave reviews.Shraddha Das who plays a Pakistani sports psychologist is first-rate. Shraddha Nigam as the bubbly girl who encourages her fiance Sushant Singh as he kick-boxes his way to glory is controlled. Sabyasachi Chakravarthy as the tough as nails Pakistani coach is a powerful character you would love to hate. Farooq Sheikh as the genial Indian coach (in sharp contrast to his Pakistani counterpart) who deflects political interference in the selection process with subtle help from the media is an endearing character. Sushant Singh, Mukesh Rishi, Kelly Dorji and Aashish Vidyarthi all pitch in with performances that compliment the script. Nafisa Ali, who plays the mother, stands out for her grace, elegance and performance.

LAHORE isn't about kick-boxing only. It's about relationships -- between two nations and also between two brothers -- with a strong undercurrent of emotions. It's the emotional quotient, that will captivate you and the highpoint of the film are the kick-boxing duels -- in Kuala Lumpur first [first half] and Lahore [second half] later. There are minor hook ups here and there, but overall a movie that one shouldn't miss at any cost.
OVERALL RATING: 3/5
