Storyline
When Priyadarshan’s Aakrosh came out in theatres, I was damn impressed with his execution of the almost watertight script – and the length didn’t even matter. It was another story altogether that I had decided voluntarily not to review the film at all, because my euphoria was dampened by the immediate discovery of the film being a brazen rip-off Mississippi Burning – and in fact, after watching the film, my spirits dampened even more. Now, almost two years later, when his Tezz was about to release and all its promos were out there, I had almost predicted the film to have a strange connection with The Taking of Pelham One Two Three – and I’m not talking the Tony Scott remake, I’m talking the original 70s thriller book and its immediate movie adaptation – along with some other weird revenge elements to make a concoction that seems to be one people are going to be wary enough to taste. But leaving the box-office predictions aside, I decided to take the risk and taste the concoction.
