Shaurya Blu-Ray [Blu-ray]

Plot : â€Shaurya’ is not so much about patriotism as it is about values like
righteousness, integrity, justice and self-belief.The battleground in Shourya
is a courtroom and the fight is for truth. Needless to say truth wins in the
end, but how that truth unfolds or is made to unfold by the protagonist is
what keeps you glued to the screen throughout the second half of â€Shaurya’.
That is only if you haven’t watched the 1992 Hollywood film â€A Few Good Men’,
starring Tom Cruise and Kevin Bacon as two army lawyers and the supertalented
Jack Nicholsan as an arrogant but highly decorated army chief at Guantanamo
Bay.In â€Shaurya’, the setting is Srinagar and the head on the line is that of
Captain Javed Khan (Deepak Dobriyal), who is accused of killing a fellow
officer. The task of defending Javed Khan in the court goes to Major Siddhant
or Sid ( Rahul Bose ), an intelligent but reluctant army lawyer. The
prosecution lawyer is none other than Sid’s best friend Major Aakash ( Javed
Jaffrey ), who believes in going by the book when it comes to matters of law.
The trouble is that the accused, Javed Khan, is tongue-tied. He refuses to
reveal the truth about what actually happened. Also add to the picture a
journalist named Kaavya ( Minissha Lamba ) for whom the army bases and the
court-martial proceedings do not seem to be miraculously off-limits.As Sid
digs deeper into the case and unravels the truth, he begins to find his
vision, his voice, his self belief and his courage, enough to put a highly
decorated and honorable man like Brigadier Rudra Pratap Singh ( Kay Kay Menon
) on the stand.The final face-off between Sid and Brigadier in the courtroom
is the high-point of the film.
