Tensions arise when the daughter of nation's best lawyer is kidnapped. Now she'll have to save a rapist from death sentence, as ransom, within 4 days. Anuradha Verma is a prominent criminal lawyer and a single mother who has never lost a case. One day her daughter Sanaya is kidnapped and no ransom is demanded, but instead the kidnapper contacts her and tells her that she has to defend a convicted felon to get her daughter back. The felon is Miyaaz Shaikh who is convicted for rape and murder of a young woman and the case against him is set for judgement in four days. The kidnapper keeps track of Anuradha very closely to make sure she complies with his demand. With the pressure of time against her, Anuradha tries to get help from her suspended police friend Yohan who has been suspended from the police force for flaunting the rules and regulations too often. The case against Miyaaz Shaikh is handled by a renowned public prosecutor played by Atul Kulkarni who has been defeated by Anuradha and hence has a long time professional rivalry against her. How Anuradha races against time and saves her daughter by twisting the laws to win the case is the rest of the plot Spoiler alert.. <br/><br/>You will want to spend some serious time and money to find the writers and the director of this abomination and have them executed for inflicting this violently painful collection of dialogs, scenes and music. <br/><br/>I mean the reasons why I could hang on for the whole movie, is two fold..<br/><br/>1) I liked the idea of visually filtering out the "real Mumbai" with some cross screen tint; and,<br/><br/>2) I've never written a review before, on a movie, so I thought I should warn people of this, as a public service. I had to get through the whole movie, so that I could keep my enthusiasm to write this review.<br/><br/>So enjoy! And share the hate! One of the best movies this year. Sure to be a hit with the critics and audiences alike. Rai Gives An AMAZING Performance as does Azmi and Khan. 10/10 in my books. Hope It does Commercially Well. Aishwarya goes for the jugular in this crime thriller. Inspired by the South Korean thriller Seven Days, Jazbaa revolves around a divorced lawyer, who dotes on her pre-teen daughter. With a 100 per cent success track record, she knows how to get any criminal 'justice'. However, her world crumbles when her daughter goes missing. The kidnapper makes it clear that he is not interested in money. Rather, he tells her that the only way she will ever see her child again is to free a felon (Chandan) who faces rape and murder charges.Gupta, known to be sounder with technique than story-telling (many of his films have been foreign inspirations), has got it right this time.
