The review

'Why?' is exactly what anyone who sat through this monstrosity wants to ask Ketan. A ridiculous mix of irrelevant nautch girls and satis, full with homoerotic man-on-man mudwrestling 'subtext', mars the tale of a controversial yet iconic Indian hero.

With hype bubbling in a four-year cauldron, this had to be the disappointment of the year. Sigh. O Aamir, how we used to love ya.
