Sherazade A foreign mechanic comes to Mumbai and is involved in a crime by accident, when he is threatened by police as well as local goons, he picks which side he pledges allegiance to. But when his friends begin to die one after the other, he strikes back in a huge way thus carving out his own underworld empire in the process. The film is based on a true life story.It's very gritty but it is also very confusing, especially in the beginning but sexy Randeep Hooda's excellent essaying of the title character "D" or "Deshu" (as he is called in the film) will keep you watching. Isha Koppikar and Chunkey Pandey co-star.
meraiya A perfect movie projecting a man 'Desu' who finds opportunity in difficult time, makes decision rationally, lives by his own conditions, has Rules unsurpassed, vision unparalleled and perfection in execution. Ram Gopal Verma has given a new dimension to bollywood film making. Randeep Hooda has delivered very less dialogs but his portrayal of character is perfect. Controvercially its story of Dawood (Underworld don accused in 1993 Bombay blast case)and his Gang "D".Ramu also got some threatening phone calls for that. In the end of the film it summarizes character as: when, where and what he will do - nobody knows. thats why Desu is called D. Nobody could stop him. He made crime a business. Veiled politics and brought underworld into 'upperworld'.Even today 'D company's greatest rule is - "In business, your friend is your foe."
lazrer If ur a typical bollywood drooler who thinks "item number+good cast+good location = hit movie" pls don't watch this. This movie does have a clichéd story line, "youngster wants to push his luck in crimeworld" but so did scarface and u knw it was only a hit after being released onto VHS, in early 90's.D deals very well with the character of one man.one man who doesn't talk much and uses his brains and balls to go forward in the mafia.There is a scene in the movie in which "deshu" takes revenge on a policeman by actually not attacking him but instead keeping him in fear(u gotta watch that scene where he says to his gf how he will take revenge).If u like "kisna" in place of "page 3" then this movie is not for u!
nehasrungta Another mafia movie out of the RGV factory. First of all, set expectations right to enjoy the movie. Don't expect the brilliance of Satya, raciness of Company, or the impact of Ab Tak Chappan. Then you will end up actually enjoying the movie instead of panning it as just another mafia movie.I am surprised that they didn't promote this movie as the prequel to Company. Hollywood would have milked the angle. Hindi movies need to start doing it. But it is a "prequel" to Company, no questions about that. When seen in that angle you understand the motivation behind making the film.The biggest plus of the movie, like other RGV movies there is no sugar coating. The scene where Deshu is sitting and eating lunch in the chawl is so realistic of chawls in B'bay that you almost can touch and smell it. There is no Yash Chopra grandeur. The romance is gritty and real. There isn't too much dialogue in the movie which furthers the impact. There is no real need for it, you can extrapolate the dialogue from the situations. The background music is fitting. Another plus point of the movie is the focus on the story. The movie never veers from it. The story is about the rise of common man to that of a mafia don (Deshu). There aren't any sub plots to divert the attention of the viewer. The acting for most part is top notch. Rukshar (Bhakti Bhatnagar) who plays Deshu's girlfriend is the only one who doesn't command a screen presence.So whats the biggest minus ? Like I said before it doesn't leave you breathless a.k.a Satya. You have appreciate the mumbai tapori/mafia/colloquial setup to some degree to like the movie. If you are a fan of the afore mentioned movies. Its a must see.
