Ab Ke Baras
Anjali (Amrita Rao) is a young free bird. Her life is
full of joy and fun until her engagement date approaches. The date coincides
with her birthday and she starts having flashbacks all of a
sudden.
Voices, dreams, a transport through a time
passed. These are the things young Anjali confronts with. The voice tells her
that its time she returned to her lover, her original lover. She just can’t
avoid the voice and the images, as they are very powerful and haunting like
anything.
Anjali is now in abroad and hence she
travels to India to find the truth behind what has been told about. There she
meets Karan (Arya Babbar) who helps her in her strange
pursuit.
They learn more and more about each other and
their pasts during their journey. A big surprise awaits them. Yes you guessed it
right. It’s Karan that Anjali has been searching
for.
It’s India, the past, Nandini (Amrita Rao, again)
and Abhay (Arya Babbar, again)- A.K.A. Shaheed Abhay Singh, that happens later,
and their struggling against the British Empire. There they meet Tejeshwar
Singhal (Ashutosh Rana), the only character who somehow remains through each of
the dream sequences. He opposes their love. He is the traitor who supports the
British. There they encounter more trouble, more opposition and several more
twists and turns.
Several unbelievable
sequences.
One cannot deny that the film is visually
pleasant. The cinematography by Ishwir Bidri is just excellent! The film scores
most of its points in the fact that the dream sequences have been handled with a
lot of panache and the periodic scene is also pleasant. The action sequences are
well coordinated. The hit song, "Aaya Mahi” is superbly picturized.
