The central performance as the fan is legendary. I am not overrating SRK's performance at all.

SRK can totally play Batman and Joker in the same film sharing same screen space.

The action is nicely choreographed, executed and directed. It leans more towards action thriller than a psychological thriller. It's a psychological action thriller. The message is good. The pace is good. Yes, there are plot holes but they are overshadowed by the central performance. Contrary to popular opinion, I enjoyed the action in the second half.

Standout scenes: 1. Aryan meeting Gaurav in jail 2. Gaurav spending the night in jail 3. Gaurav's final words: Aapne sab kuch bola. Bas sorry nahin bola. Rehnde. Tu nahin samjega.

I will pay anyone who can edit all the deleted scenes on youtube into the film.

Also, I need to remind folks that this came out before Will Smith's Gemini Man.
