It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

Quite simply, Aazaan is meant to be an action thriller, and it does live up to that genre top some extent. Story is about a RAW agent Aazaan khan, who is sent to find the mastermind behind a deadly virus that is killing people around the world, who is also believed to have the cure. Aazaan also has been given the task of finding his missing brother who is believed to be linked with terrorists.The concept is weak-something that people nowadays are not very interested in.The editing is poor, for some scenes there is audio video mismatch(poor dubbing). Most actors are cheap. They should have used some standard actors. They have also tried to use the remarkable BOURNE type of action in this. Some scenes move too fast.But some of the action scenes in the movie are remarkable. So are the various locales where it was shot. Sachin Joshi does a good job. Songs are pretty good. You can watch this film. But perhaps if it had released at least 10 years before with a few FAMOUS actors, it would've done better.

Watching a project such as AZAAN makes me sad because it is a perfect example of a misguided venture backed by a strong resourceful will of making a good film. It can easily be compared to a game wherein a person is holding a bunch of darts ready to hit the target-board. But after he throws them all, he finds out that where some less important ones have rightly hit the bull's eye, the other most important ones have gone far away from the main circle.Explaining the example given above, AZAAN has few great merits which should have essentially resulted in a fine movie. Like, it was marketed well and talks about a fresh subject of Bio-terrorism (spreading germs or viruses to kill a large number of people) which has never been exploited by any Hindi Film before so prominently. As required by the international plot it gets full support from its fabulous cinematography, brilliantly capturing the action sequences as well as its various world locations taking the viewer onto a multiple country tour. Plus it gets a very well composed & arranged background score which adds to the thriller aspect of the film perfectly along with few pretty decent tracks in its soundtrack like "Bismillah" and more.But all these merits become worthless in absence of the right kind of script, pace and performances required for such a project. In other words everything goes wrong in the film apart from these few points, sadly resulting in a poor show altogether. The director Prashant Chadha takes all his inspiration from the famous "BOURNE series" and other films made on the similar subject, but is not able to bring the same kind of excitement in his own film. The script goes on unimpressively, from being predictable to complicated travelling from one continent to another in fast cuts. Moreover the writers don't ever care to explain the concept of Bio-terrorism to the audience and take everything for granted. The romance factor looks like deliberately added as usual and the thrilling element is surprisingly completely missing in the film based on Global Terrorism.In the performance department, Sachin Joshi has got the looks but he actually doesn't match the vast scale of the project. He still needs to sharpen many aspects of his acting including his dialogue delivery. From rest of the cast Ravi Kissen tries hard but everyone else gets nothing written for them specifically in its weak script.On the whole AZAAN unarguably shows all the big money spent and many sincere efforts put in to convert it into a big success. But unfortunately its just like the case of constructing a fine smooth road towards a wrong direction. And it really makes you feel sad watching such an effort being made without any proper directions.

Aazaan by far the worthiest film I've watched all year. Being a movie buff i try and catch all movies not being subjective . The same goes with Aazaan. Its all you can expect in a great movie, action, romance, thrill, excitement, commitment, loyalty, speed! Its got great commitment to entertainment, thrill to excite the audience, loyalty towards each movie goer's preference, thus compacting all the good stuff moves in one movie. Its a whole package with a little for everyone. Its kinda like a box of chocolates...its just my way of expressing my joy of watching the movie!! But don;t take my word for it!

Aazaan. Have you ever heard of an Indian Spy traveling the world in micro seconds to save his country? Well Aazaan Khan is one such spy who travels the world, eradicates terror, finds out the answer to his confused life. Aazaan's mind-blowing cinematography, background score and the pace made me hooked onto the movie till a certain point which I wouldn't disclose as it is for you to find out. No, its not after the starting credits roll, can assure you that
Story- Aazaan Khan's parents were killed by a terrorist. Aazaan then takes revenge by killing them in his childhood. Seeing this his brother gets infatuated. He helps a terrorist group which is on a mission to kill India biologically. Aazaan by now is an Indian Spy, who wants his brother to return to the track of goodness and to finish terror. And as you know any Bollywood movie won't get over within minutes, Aazaan couldn't see itself behind. During his mission he meets Afreen (Candice Boucher) and her kid (Zara) whose blood works as an antidote for the Ebola virus. Aazaan and his quest to get the antidote, finish terror and bring his brother back from the hands of evil is what Prashant Chadha had to tell. No getting into further details here.Acting- Sachiin J Joshi has done a decent job as a debutant. Yes, polishing is needed in wide areas but has done justice to the role of Aazaan. Dialogue delivery and performing stunts was well accredited. Candice Boucher plays a sand artiste. Her presence is felt only for 15 minutes in the movie which makes her role unexplainable and gives out the impression of her character being forcefully added in the script. My favorite was Ravi Kissen who has done a tremendous job in the film. Both comic timing and getting the seriousness was superbly balanced. Other actors have also done well for their minute roles.To concise, Aazaan has a good blend of magnificent music and background score, credit to Salim - Sulaiman. Excellent cinematography by Axel Fischer brings a whole new paradigm to Bollywood film-making. Prashant Chadha's vision and the screenplay played a vital factor in keeping viewers hooked onto the movie. Yes, at some part it might just put you off but stunts and action are well portrayed. Regardless, go watch the movie only if the tickets cost Rs. 80 or Rs. 100 max. I'm not guaranteeing you all anything par excellence.My ratings- ***
