Ittefaq
Harshada Rege (DNA; October 5, 2017)

Akshaye Khanna, who won a lot of critical acclaim for his role of a cop in Mom, returns to the big screen as one yet again with Ittefaq, co-produced by Red Chillies Entertainment, BR Studios, and Dharma Productions. The movie is a remake of Ittefaq, which released in 1969. The original featured Rajesh Khanna and Nanda, while the remake will see Sidharth Malhotra and Sonakshi Sinha along with Akshaye reprise the roles. The intriguing movie revolves around two murders.

TALES OF TWO
The movie that releases on November 3 will see the return of a star-studded murder mystery after a rather long time. It’s left to Akshaye’s character to get to the truth and nail the culprit. He is faced with two murders and two suspects, who present two versions.

KEEPING IT CRISP
One of the main things in a film of a thriller genre is the pace. The good thing about Ittefaq is that its runtime is around 100 minutes, which means, get ready for a ride of nonstop thrills, ending in a nail-biting finish. Like the original, this version directed by Abhay Chopra too, will be a song-less movie.

LIKE FATHER-LIKE SON
In Hindi films, Vinod Khanna was one of the actors who played the tough cop with absolute conviction. Movies like Amar Akbar Anthony and Inkaar saw him play an honest cop. And it seems only natural that Akshaye takes forward his legacy.
