There is an interesting sub-plot in the film that highlights the plight of parents in Pakistan whose children are misguided by the terror groups.Įven though the film's heart is in the right place, the execution is miles away from satisfaction. Post interval, they wade into Pakistan to bring to justice the mastermind Haaris Sayeed which is very unconvincing given how easily Danyaal and Nawaz execute their plan despite being unknown to the people of Pakistan. The couple keeps the mission on despite the orders to abort it. Together they go to war torn Syria and have coffee in a restaurant after killing the Lashkar agents. Danyal meets Nawaz Mistri (Katrina), an ex-Raw agent with all the right connections, in London. Gadar, with its high emotional overtone and over the top acting went on to become a blockbuster but Phantom neither has the emotional overtone of Gadar nor the star power that Sunny Deol wielded in the 90s.īased on S Hussain Zaidi's best seller, Mumbai Avengers, Phantom is particularly based on ‘an eye for an eye' theory which never really gets you on the edge of the seat.ĭanyal Khan (Saif), a court martialled officer, is handpicked by RAW agents for a covert mission to eliminate the masterminds of the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks.
While in Bajrangi, Sallu bhai goes to Pakistan with a message of peace, Saif is here to kill the masterminds of 26/11. Phantom could be the poetic justice of director Kabir Khan to balance things off after his blockbuster Bajranigi Bhaijaan.
It's been long since anyone has created mayhem in Pakistan after Gadar.
