The promos were terrible, and you know how bad his direction was in his debut film 'Aap ka Suroor - the movie'. Yet, just that stubborness to watch new releases, made me see this one hell of a boring, and just boring film, that had only one background piece to attract me in whole film.. which also wasn't original, heard before in films.

The story is of a Doctor (Sajid Hassan) who wants to destruct India, first by planting bomb in peace conference at Germany, then the Ebola virus which if spread could completely destroy India. One man stands in his way, Azaan Khan (Sachin Joshi), a army officer now secretly working for Sam (Alyy Khan) and Pandey (Ravi Kissen). But how he deals with the job, when he is told about his brother whom he has been searching since long, is a terrorist.

There is nothing new in the story, the virus part isn't tried before in our films in major way, like Contagion. But, Azaan mostly keeps Ebola virus as a backdrop only. Prashant Chaddha shows no improvement in his direction skills, possibly gets worser than his debut. The screenplay is nice, but when your lead actor has got single expression in entire film, it's hard to like such a film.

Doctor's 1st appearance in the film, Azaan going to check what his friend is going to get n then coming back into the car, and the sand painting 1st scene of Afreen were among the few good moments of this dull film.

The songs are forced into the narration, though Salim-Suleiman have given nice music in the film. Editing is okay. Cinematography is nice. Some of the action sequences are well done, though one scene is straightaway lifted from Bourne Series.

The love angle of Candice was completely off track, in a already non-appealing film.

Performances wise,

Sachin Joshi will need to improve a hell lot, else his career wont last too long.

Candice Boucher reminds of Celina Jaitley when she was new in acting. No expressions, just beauty.

Ravi Kissen is totally over the top. Alyy Khan is his usual. Sajid Hassan impresses in 1-2 scenes. Sarita Chowdhary is fine. Sachin Khedekar, Dalip Tahil and Aarya Babbar get no scope in small appearances.



Overall, Azaan has nothing to make you like this film.


Verdict : Avoidable
