Bollywood to me started with sarfarosh. B4 watching sarfarosh, me n my pals were like these "cool" Hollywood movie buffs. Always prefering Sterling, New excelsior n Regal theaters in mumbai for Hollywood stuff. But sarfarosh changed everything. One day me n my fiancé jus entered this theatre midway without realising which movie was running. N that particular time this beer bar dance sequence from sarfarosh was going on. She told wtf, which z grade film did v enter for. Then v decided at least v wait till one hour. N by GOD, what an engrossing movie. N once the credits rolled v both looked at each other. During those days VHS rental was cheap n it used to b available easily. I saw it  again. Mind blowng experience. The editing of the movie was brilliant. Aamir's acting was top notch. Mukesh rishi deserved best supporting actor award. The movie dealt with so many important issues simultaneously especially during that era. Awesome movie. It too broke all the norms of a typical Bollywood trash.

Am writing a review for this movie after many years of it release but its never late.I have watched this movie more than 50 times now and it still entertains me in the same way. And i bet you won't be disappointed also.Aamir does a superb job of portraying the character of ACP. Not to forget the role of Saleem and his side kicks. Sonali looks as pretty as ever. She supports the character well.The songs are also nice and soothing.Overall a must watch for all aamir fans.I rate it 10/10 even after 8 years of its release and watching it uncountable times.

This is one of the best cop films except the Pak bashing which is one flaw yet the way the film is handled brilliantlyThe cops aren't shown larger then life here and are shown realistic Also even a Muslim is shown as a good person and that z niceThe film follows a no nonsense approach and works well throughout Though the pace slows and drags at times when the focus goes on the villains but luckily they are several good scenes and brilliant handling that overpowers itThe climax is brilliant too, the face off between Naseer and Aamir is brilliantJohn Matthew Mathan makes a commendable debut, his best work Sad he couldn't follow it up and made a dud like SHIKHAR Music is good and suits the film Cinematography is aptAamir played a cop in BAAZI with a filmy style but here he is more restrained, mature and natural He acts like he is for real and doesn't try to hog the limelight but let's us focus on the dialogs between the co-stars Mukesh Rishi for once gets an opportunity to act and be a good guy and he does a fantastic job as Salim He is superb, hope he gets such roles more Sonali provides comic relief and is good Naseeruddin Shah is given a clichéd role and he does well Amongst others Pradeep Singh Rawat(villain of Ghajini), Govind Namdeo and the cops are all perfect

As usual, Amir Khan is best. But well here the direction, story, screenplay, dialogue are as good as he is. It's John Matthan's first film, but its just amazing and fantastic to watch. Nasiruddin Shah and Mukesh Rishi are unforgettable in the movie. Sonali Bendre doesn't have much to do, but she has done her part well.Music score and the lyrics are very good. Specially "Hoshwalon ko khabar kya" is an all time favourite. It's a MUST see.
