Coming Friday sees the release of 'Anwar' that stars Siddharth Koirala in the title role. Pitted against 'Guru', it is indeed a tough task for 'Anwar' to make its presence felt at the box office but by the look of things; it does appear to be a good dramatic outing in the offering.
Based on the backdrop of an innocent man [Anwar] caught in the web of politics, communism, media, law keepers and last but not the least, betrayed love, the film is the second directorial outing of Manish Jha who had debuted with a stunning and hard hitting 'Matrabhoomi' a few years back.
Initial reports indicate that 'Anwar' is yet another good effort by Jha who has walked a tight rope in narrating the tale of the central protagonist named 'Anwar' and extracted superlative performances by his entire main and supporting cast.
Meanwhile two of the songs from the film, 'Maula Mere' and 'Tose Naina Laage', have already caught fancy of the lovers of melodious music and are gracing the music charts.
