Plot:  Azhar, the captain of the Indian cricket team faces a match fixing allegation due to his name being linked with a London based bookie for which the Indian cricket board slaps a life ban on him from playing cricket forcing Azhar to challenge the ban in court.

Review: Azhar lives a lavish lifestyle, dressed to please; so when allegations of match-fixing taint the name of Azhar in 2000, he sees a fall from the public eye so bad that he does not know how to win back the respect of his country. The cricketer is banned from playing for India. Eventually, he decides to fight against the allegations which turn out to be a world of pain for him and fix his tainted image.

The film works for most parts due to Emraan's brilliant performance. Prachi 

Desai has also done a good job at slipping into the character of Azhar's first wife with ease, making the audience feel the throbbing pain of rejection and betrayal. However, each of the other actors had a prominent fault in their acting ranging from exaggeration of accents to being unnecessarily discourteous, except for one; the movie's saving grace is the convincing portrayal done in an inept script by the protagonist himself, Emraan Hashmi.

This could have been a great advisory tale about an upcoming great sport at a time when it was just becoming the arena it has now grown into. Due to the incoherence in story-telling throughout the movie, unfortunately, Azhar fails to hit it out of the stadium.
