These are exciting times - a new millennium has just dawned, India's a nuclear power and ostensibly shining - a perfect place for the 3 Ahmedabad boys to start a business that could be their ticket to fame and riches. In a country where cricket is religion, they hit upon a brilliant plan - to start a training academy that could produce India's next sporting superstars! What follows is without doubt the greatest adventure of their lives, as they attempt to navigate the big hurdles in the path of fulfilling their dreams. (c) UTV

Critic Reviews
-
Kate Taylor, Globe and Mail
A film that might be the next Bend It Like Beckham - if it did not have the sensibilities of the next Dr. Zhivago.
-
Robert Abele, Los Angeles Times
Its performances are enjoyably boisterous, and director Abhishek Kapoor refuses to linger on clichés for too long ...
-
Rachel Saltz, New York Times
Mixes, not quite successfully, traditional Bollywood storytelling with something less conventional.
-
Bruce Demara, Toronto Star
It's a sprawling tale of friendship during a tumultuous time of sectarian strife in India.
-
Aaron Hillis, Village Voice
The dramatic stakes are so puny that every obstacle can be overcome with a simple work-it-out montage, a cheap device prevalent enough in this movie to start a drinking game.
