Amitabh Bachchan, Hrithik Roshan, Om Puri

It is the year 1999 and Karan Shergill (Hrithik Roshan) has been recently posted in the Siachen region of Kashmir, near the Indo-Pak border. As he bonds with his fellow officers and gets to know more ...( read more  read more... )about the region under their supervision, he reminisces about his previous life: how, as a good-for-nothing youngster, he had become a black sheep of their family, how he had took the entrance exam for Indian Military Academy purely out of a whim, how the harsh training had caused him to run away and return home, and how the decision had resulted into a breakup with his girlfriend Romila "Romi" Dutta (Preity Zinta) and how he had returned to the Academy, finished his training and emerged a winner. But there isn't much time left to dwell upon the past, as terrorists have crossed the Line Of Control and occupied a few key peaks to serve as attack points. The Indian Defense retaliates and thus begins Operation Vijay, a mission to reclaim the terrorist-captured points before it is too late. Karan is thrown amidst heated battle to capture an important peak, and he knows it very well that this might just be a great chance to serve his country and look the world in its face.

    I feel this is the best of Farhan Akhtar's three movies. When I first watched it years ago it moved and inspired me. The second time around the feeling was much stronger. There are so many parallels to the story line that makes you introspect and look within your self, that is...( read more) the beauty of the movie.

    Hritikh really knew how to be his character.

    I'm not so pumped up about the Army shit.
    There are a couple of scenes that I really enjoy.
    I was disappointed by Preity Zinta's role.

    Some parts were okay, others were nice and some just boring.

    Hritik was good. One song made a good publicity for the movie. since the movie has anti pak theme in second half. the movie hasn't done well at box office.
