Aakrosh movie, set to release on October 15, 2010, is a hard hitting film on honour killings in remote villages in Bihar. Aakrosh, the movie and has a power packed star cast that includes Ajay Devgn, Akshaye Khanna, Bipasha Basu and Paresh Rawal. Film Aakrosh, is directed by Priyadarshan who moves away from his trademark comic films and remakes with this original story and is produced by Kumar Mangat. Music is by Pritam while lyrics have been given by Irshad Kamil. Set in a village called Jhanjhar where three Delhi University students go missing after a ‘Ramleela’ event, the Aakrosh story centres around two CBI officers Siddhant Chaturvedi and Pratap Kumar who try to uncover the mystery of the high profile missing case of the students. What appears to be an honour killing case goes through a mysterious maze of complex caste relations, riots, arson and murders. To complicate matters the two officers have very diverse personalities and work styles and that leads to further conflict. But the two officers have to resolve their issues to crack the case in the face of opposition from the local police, politicians and landlords, who support the local militant outfit called Shool Sena. The low caste members are tight lipped and the only help comes from unexpected quarters, the daughter of the richest person in the village. The mystery unveils itself slowly as another victim of the caste politics, Geeta, stands up as witness.
Aakrosh, the movie promises much with a strong story line, an accomplished director, a food cast and an acclaimed music director and appears to be one of the better bets this season.
