Story: The story revolves around Azaan Khan, a young upright army officer working for RAW (Research and Analysis Wing). He is an informer, who has to go undercover beyond enemy lines and help find out enough information to be able to save his brother and the nation from destruction at the hands of Biological Warfare. What unfolds is a man’s determination of saving his country against all odds of human defiance. In his journey, he meets Afreen, who helps Azaan realise that he too is vulnerable and has human sentiments. As the tagline of the movie claims, one country, one conspiracy and Azaan, who only has one desire to find his brother and the love for his country.
REview :
“Aazaan” takes the action genre in this country to a new level of finesse and restraint. The script is layered, though not quite free of inconsistencies and of questionable moral and political tenets as it would like us to believe.
The action is implosive opting for understatement where extravagant mayhem would have been the more obvious choice. The editing (Amitabh Shukla, Humphrey Dixon) is razor-sharp. There is no room for humbug in the narrative. Every character that populates the swarming plot has a job to do. It’s done by actors who know their jobs.
The background score by Salim-Suleman and the sound design are remarkably bridled.
Debutant Sachiin Joshi knows his limitations as an actor and works way around them by playing a character who would rather be closer to realism than larger than life. The other performances particularly Aarya Babbar, Ravi Kissan and Aly Khan too are in keeping with the films less-is-more mood. But what on earth is the talented Sarita Choudhary doing in a role that looks like James Bond’s M on steroids.
