Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film
Taraparain Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
Yash Wade Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

flyingsaucer Sarfarosh is the story of a man, Ajay Singh Rathod(Aamir Khan). His journey in the world we think we know,yet there is conspiracy everywhere, there are many things unknown. Ajay is a normal youth, he lives a life of every youngster in India until, one day his brother is killed by the terrorists, his father is beaten up ruthlessly. Why? Because they had the courage to say the truth, to stand up for it.Ajay Singh later begins his career as Police Officer. The honest, sincere police officer, whose duty is his life, whose only motive is to protect law and see that the law punishes the criminals. An International crime, or Inter-Country crime, source is Pakistan, and Ajay has to find the root of the problem which starts at smuggling and ends at war, terror war from ISI(Pakistan Intelligence Agency).Coming to Performances:Aamir Khan as Ajay Singh Rathod is simply mind blowing in a hard hitting, sincere cop role. This has to be one of the very Realistic performances ever. You become so involved with this character of Ajay that you will feel emotionally attached to him. Director John Mathew Matthan direction is spot on, and the pace of the movie is well maintained, except for some time in the middle of the movie where you feel that film is being dragged. But for a debut this movie has to be a great achievement.Other Departments: Naseeruddin Shah is impressive as a Singer cum Terrorist. Sonali Bindre is lovely. Music is good, but one wonders if the Songs were a necessity. Action scenes are well shot.On the whole this film deserves to be used as a Prototype for Cop/Terrorism-based movies. Watch it, you will be satisfied.
powerbrain Aamir Khan has performed at his best. Loved the movie.Ajay Singh Rathod (Aamir Khan) is a honest officer who hates the criminals and terrorist. He loves his country. He gets some information about criminals who are involve in supply of arms in order to create terrorism.Ajay solves this mystery and reaches the root of this gang. But at the end he comes to know that this terrorism was under-supervision of his very good friend and singer "Gulfam Hassan (Naseeruddin Shah)" The story, Music, Dialogues, everything is just perfect.A MUST SEE
generic_user1970 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.
