Balaji motion pictures films has always behaved as a modernist. This time it was Sanjay Gupta the director of the movie who set the milestone.The story which was called as a sequel to shootout at lokhandwala is actually a gang war happened earlier in the Mumbai. So let me brief what was the real story before going to actual review.
Earlier in Mumbai there were two main gangs one was the Dawood gang of Dawood Ibrahim and Pathan gang led by karim lala. These two gangs were continuously fighting and robbing. They used to terrorize the whole city of Mumbai. The fight was becoming a never ending battle.
Mumbai was vibrating every day and common people were frightened for various shootout incidences. So in order to reduce the crime rate in the city, Haji mastan, a self proclaimed Robin Hood of Mumbai brought out a treaty between these two gangs.
After the treaty, the two gangs agreed that they will never interfere in each others work. However, it never really happened because of a man called as Manya surve.
Manya Surve was from Marathi community and he was actually a bachelor of arts graduate who got 78% marks in his graduation. He was simple and straightforward. However, his brother's involvement in many crimes forced him to join criminal world.

Manya Surve was from Marathi community and he was actually a bachelor of arts graduate who got 78% marks in his graduation. He was simple and straightforward. However, his brother's involvement in many crimes forced him to join criminal world.
One day when goons came searching for Manya's brother a fight erupted and Manya came to save his brother. In that incidence Manya's brother killed one of the goons who was being held by Manya.
So the authority picked up Manya and his brother and put them at Yerwada jail in Pune. Manya somehow got escaped from the jail but his brother was killed over a old rivalry.
When Manya freed himself from the jail he tried to form a gang with his old friends. Somehow he got six men who could follow his order. Initially they worked out on small crimes. Later borrowing the skills from 'James Hadley's chase' a novel which he used to read in the graduation, he started looting the banks.
Manya got in contact with the gang of Karim lala who was arch rival of Dawood. One day Manya Surve and Karim Lala's gang member Aamirzada killed Dawood's brother Sabir Ibrahim. This murder was a milestone in the Mumbai gang war politics. The angry Dawood decided to take the revenge of this incidence. Reckoned as cunning wolf, Dawood tipped and gave money to the Mumbai police.
Dawood has always been a great negotiator and businessman. In spite of having a dreadful career he became a successful businessman. So it was easy for Dawood to tip the Mumbai Police. This was actually done by Dawood's friend named as Waradarajan Mudaliar, a south Indian gang leader.

At that time Bagvan dada was an inspector at the Mumbai Police headquarter. He got information that Manya has came to meet his girlfriend. So he led a team at wadala college to kill Manya surve. After initial shootout Manya tried to surrender but the cops shot him down. Even after receiving bullets he was not dead. Cops deliberately made sure that ambulance would come late. When the ambulance actually came they deliberately drove it through longer root. That journey was a last journey for Manya, he got dead on his way to hospital.
So this was a story of the Mumbai Gang-war in which Manya Surve was involved. It just portrays the character of a common man as how in those days common man was unwillingly dragged into the Mumbai crime world.

Movie Review- The movie shootout at wadala is a classic tale which portrays Manya Surve as a Robin Hood. The movie has heavyweight actors like Anil Kapoor, John Abrahum, Mahesh Majrekar. The dialogs of Anil kapoor set up the movie. He has always been the performer. The movie sets him up like it did for him in Virasat. John gave full value to his acting skills and to the role of Manya surve.
You may under-estimated sonu sood but he gave a good performance for the role of Dawood. The camerawork was perfect except for some dull shots like when kangna and John talks for the first time you can predict it's a studio. The role of Tushar Kapoor seems to be deliberately added with no actual use. The songs in the movie are good but story gets stopped by it.
Sunny Leonne's entry can dry your throat. I think India is the only country specially Bhatt camp and Balaji motin pictures, who can give role to her. They showed rational and modern approach. So called as American star she entertained really well. Overall movie can be watchable, it's a good movie to watch in typical Indian style.
