![]() It is all Buddy Comedy 101, but as can be said justifying 90 percent of all movies starring The Rock, we all know the genre works besides its predictability because of the way the actors play off each other. On the trail are Kabir, an Indian supercop flown in to hunt him down, and Junaid, a Dubai-based Indian cop itching for action. Saleem is a fine performer and the cricketing bits seem as authentic as they need to be in a film like this, and the initial mystery of who kidnapped Viraj is an intriguing one. This cricketer - Viraj, a combination of Virat Kohli and Yuvraj Singh, if you will - is played by Saqib Saleem, and the youngster obviously knows how to hit full-tosses all over the place. (To me, there were times when it feels like watching a music video version of 99, a cricket/match-fixing film I once worked on.) There is much room for hilarity in a setup like this, and the film taps into a fair bit of it, even as the set-pieces get bloated and the background score thuds with relentless urgency and repetition.
