Will Kabul Express end the year on a high?

'Kabul Express' is a very unlikely film coming from Yashraj stable for they've come to be associated with romance ('Fanaa', 'Salaam Namaste', 'Hum Tum') or action-adventure (Dhoom series). Shot on location in the war torn Afghanistan, it's a coming-together of an unusual story idea by acclaimed documentary film maker Kabir Khan where a journalist John Abraham along with his cameraman Arshad Warsi visit the post-Taliban Afghanistan. And in spite of the liberation from the extremist forces, life continues to be difficult.

In the on-location video of the film, John confesses that the Indian intelligence agency RAW had intercepted plans of finishing off John since he is a Christian. The rugged location (That's the highlight of the film and very brave of director Kabir Khan to have actually shot in Afghanistan in spite of knowing the dangers involved) is a picture postcard of how that country looks like. After all, twenty five years of war has broken it down completely.

The original soundtrack of 'Kabul Express' carries some heartwarming numbers by new composer Raghav Sachar. 'Kabul Fiza' and 'Banjar' are outstanding. Cinematography is another highlight with its colour-of-the-soil-feel oozing effortlessly through each frame. 'Kabul Express' is one of the most eagerly awaited films to end the year. I have a gut feeling that John is going to end the year on a real high. For the meanwhile'Let the 'Kabul Fiza' blow your way'It feels nice'
