Rustom promo. My quick thoughts:
– It starts off with Akshay Kumar’s introduction as a Navy Officer
– There is sneak peak of his love story with Ileana D’Souza with a melodic song in the background
– Promo comes to the point sooner than later with Akshay catching Ileana’s infidelity and shooting her lover Arjan Bajwa
– The real promo kicks off from here as the court room drama begins
– While Esha Gupta (playing Arjan’s sister) and Sachin Khedekar as her lawyer want to fight it to finish so that Akshay gets punished, there is a new chapter that opens around Akshay’s heroism
– Pavan Malhotra is in a very interesting part here and the dialoguebaazi that Akshay indulges in with him could be the film’s highlight
– There are newer episodes introduced with the angles of Akshay being a Traitor, Patriot and Murderer
– Somewhere, one gets an impression that the story is much more deep rooted than what the one line plot may have tried to convey
– What impresses most is the super fast pace of the Tinu Suresh Desai film which should keep the fans of dramatic -thrillers happy
– As expected, Akshay Kumar is truly in the skin of the character and carries the uniform perfectly well with him
– The background music is really good, especially in the last one minute of the promo
– This is one film that gives an impression of a really strong second half in the offering
– It is the story factor that should do the trick here
