Once Upon a Time in Mumbai: Extensive Review
The film takes you to an era when mumbai played host to the biggest criminals in India
. The film covers the growth of the Mumbai underworld, from crime and smuggling in its early stages through its connection with international terrorism in recent times. It is based on actual happenings. It is believed to be loosely based on the lives of Haji Mastan and Dawood Ibrahim.
The film, set primarily in 1970, when Mumbai was Bambai. The movie follows the rise of Sultan (Ajay Devgan), and his eventual fall, when his protege Shoaib (Emraan Hashmi), challenges his supremacy, and usurps power to rule the murky underbelly of Mumbai.
IMDB narates the film to be,
A tale of two gangsters from the eras of past and present, whose lives enter parallel paths as they struggle to survive within Mumbai's criminal underworld.
This is not the first time Ajay Devgan is doing such a role. Infact, he is really good at playing bad. Emraan, on the other hand who played small goons previously has done his homework for playing Shoib in the movie. He will be seen flaunting 6pack Abs, which he said was a necessity to add life to the character.
Kangana Ranaut has done a lot of research on her character in the film, which is apparently based on 1970s smuggler Haji Mastan's girlfriend, Sona. To get into the skin of the character, Kangna decided to study yesteryear actresses from both Bollywood and Hollywood like Asha Parekh, Sophia Loren and Sadhana. Prachi Deasi though remains as sweet as she is, in her role of Mumtaz.
The movie has already made a melodious gate away. Pritam once again created magic, this time along with 70's rock n rolla flavor added to it. The background score is a recreation of the Amitabh starrer Don. Milan said he had a hard time putting the right kind of tunes in the right place. Well Milan, Recreating history can never be easy. The numbers like Pee Loon, Tum Jo Aaye, and Parda have already gained immense popularity. Pee Loon warms the cockles of your heart, weaves romance all around you. Emraan and Prachi are seen sharing intimate moments in the video. Tum Jo Aye is a passionate retro romantic number filmed on Kangana and Ajay. It can be your second favorite after Pee Loon. Parda is more of a 70's disco number, can try shaking your legs or sit back and watch the sizzling diva shake her body for you.
The movie had its gala opening amongst controversies with Haji Mastan's children trying to put a stay on its release. This is a feature from the house of drama queen Ektaa Kapoor so no need to think it will be a very serious flick. Those of you like mirch masala, power packed dialogues and melodrama can go in for a nice time. Emraan and Hooda have delivered excellent performance. Go and get your tickets right away.
