Summaries

A tale of an honest cop set against the backdrop of the brutal, lawless system prevailing in the Indian state of Bihar, and the endless suffering he tolerates before all hell breaks loose.

Police Inspector Samar Pratap Singh is transferred to Motihari, in the Indian state of Bihar, along with his wife Manjari and their daughter. He is honest and diligent and these attributes sets him up against his superior, the District Superintendent of Police, as well as his subordinates and fellow officers. His diligence in maintaining law and order, and his belief in justice for all, regardless of one's background, makes him a powerful enemy in the shape of Bachu Yadav, the local MLA of the ruling political party, who will stop at nothing to get rid of Samar and his family--and nobody will dare to stop him.—rAjOo ([email protected])

Samar Pratap Singh (Manoj Bajpai) is an honest police officer who has a supportive wife Manjari (Raveena Tandon) and a little daughter Sonu. Samar's honesty frequently gets him transferred, and he finally reaches the little town of Motihari in Bihar. Motihari's lord and master, so to speak, is slimy MLA Bachu Yadav (Sayaji Shinde). The police and most of Samar's colleagues kowtow to Yadav . The epitome of corruption, Yadav has been the MLA for 15 years, but loses his ticket as his party opts for someone else. On hearing this, Yadav destroys the unfortunate man and avails himself of the party ticket. Samar, an honest cop, has frequent run-ins with Yadav, to the point where he (Samar) begins to fear for his family. Does Samar manage to take on Yadav and win?—Amodini (http://hindimoviereviews.blogspot.com)
