Good start, but then it gets ruined

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

The movie really just wants to entertain people.

Aamir is a perfect movie depicting the story of Aamir who currently arrives in India after spending three years in London, studying medicine. He is made to dance with the help of various hints laid down by terrorists with the help of a mobile phone via which terrorist communicate. He cannot contact police or other officials, as his family is taken control of by terrorists. Unfortunately he is made to deliver a red suitcase. Later it is confirmed to him, to place the bag in the bus he is traveling. It is also confirmed to him that bag carries bomb which will explode in 3 minutes. He with a lot of complex mind and in lot of turbulence carries the bag towards a road construction site away from people and gets killed himself but saving others.The movie is perfect as by given circumstances it is totally possible to occur. It's very sad that such situation arise in our system. The man died for his family and innocent people. We are bounded to love our families, if not anything else it is the place where we find the largest amount of comfort. I really had my perfect senses going along with Aamir till end. A movie highly recommended.

Dr. Aamir Ali is a doctor who arrives at an airport in Bombay after his flight from London. Bikers hand him a cell phone and he receives a call informing him that his family is being held hostage. A fundamentalist Muslim group will not release them until he follows their orders. The terrorists give Ali five hours with which to plant a bomb on a bus, or his family will be executed. They try to convince him of the virtue of the act by showing him the suffering of their people, with the terrible poverty that they are living in. Aamir is a compelling drama from start to finish and Rajeev Khandelwal gives the performance of a lifetime, and director Raj Kumar Gupta shows great promise in his film debut. I look forward to his next movie. A solid 9/10.

1st watched 1/30/2010 – 4 out of 10 (Dir-Raj Kumar Gupta): Fair thriller with good soundtrack but typical American-like terrorist theme played out very much like a lot of Hollywood output in this genre. They story is basically about a seemingly innocent Indian native who is returning to his homeland from England to continue his practices locally because of more stringent requirements on foreigners(as far as I could understand). He is thrown a cell phone by some motorbike riders and given instructions to follow or his family will be harmed. Of course, he wants to know who's behind this and what it's all about but the abductors won't give him the info right away. He eventually finds out they're a part of a Muslim extremist group that wants to start a holy war(and it's followers appear to be everywhere and know everything about him) and they choose him for some reason to help them. The movie follows the typical good-guy manipulated by bad-guy motif and then tries to end with making us think about our moral choices. I won't give away the ending but basically he has to decide if his life is more important than strangers' lives in an excruciatingly long final scene. The soundtrack was the best part of this movie and otherwise it was a typical Hollywood-like thriller that Bollywood shouldn't be trying to imitate – in my opinion.

TV actors make awful actors this was one of my thoughts proved right ever since Amar Upadyay superstar of Kyunki Saas fame who became a disaster of an actor in films and left the films foreverMany more TV actors tried and most were embarrassing to watch on big screen But Rajeev Khandelwal proves it wrong and he proves that TV actors can act though we can't say he will make a big star or not or he will go ahead in films and he hasn't signed anything much after AAMIR sadlyThe film looks like another terorist film but it's not It does have nationalism, communalism.etc but yet it is a great film we are saved from sermons and other stuff such films are madeWhat we see is a proper story of how a common man is told to do some crime in the name of religion which he hasn't done yet The film is very identifiable and brilliantly handledIt's difficult to make a film where there is no heroine, no naach gaana, no hero dancing, fighting.etcIn fact the hero is a common man who has just 1 wardrobe for most of the film, you can feel his sweat, pain, agony.etcThe film keeps your attention throughout and you get seeped into the character's world The film is a short film of 1:30 mins but yet it makes a terrific impact and till the climax it keeps you on tenterhooksDirection is superb Music mostly in background is goodRajeev does a great job, he looks a common man and his expressions throughout are natural and you feel his agony, distress, pain.etc Hope he goes ahead in films The villain is good too rest are okay
