Kashyap mingled his thoughts about indian sports scene with his sense of film which will work comercially.

Film does not provide any intimacy with the character. We got the chance of looking into their life from generalized perspective of average film making. Movie had too many songs and they were good but absence of required absence made them somewhat irritating at times. I did not like the portrayal of the the lead character but it somewhat goes with the way director intended to make the film(well he surely made the physical part look real which deserve every applause). Character portrayal by jimi shergill was also too much weighed on the commercial side but i guess its the thing of casting and director's idea of the film. tempo of the film was too fast for my taste. film had too much content too show in the limited time frame so tempo was mandatory i guess and good film making at such tempo is a tough task. well this tempo is common with all the films of kashyap. Better cinematography could have done great things for the films but it was just another average thing about the film. Lights in the scenes were imbalanced, the intention of the direction of light setting was right but more effort was needed. i sometimes think that cinematographers, art directors like people dont have anything to express of themselves. Does not justify kashyap brand of films
