Wazir is held together by Amitabh Bachchan and Farhan Akhtar with a massive backbone support of maestro called the 'Script'. It starts off at a fast pace but slows down at the half where the story comes to handle the emotional moments. Second half opens with a thriller face eventually turning the plot to have a fair ending.
The plot is about two wounded men coming together in their lives, ultimately revealing the facts backed by the Chess game. The well written story has made this film uniquely stand apart from plotless wonders of Bollywood gimmicks. However, the making could not keep the essence of the story intact, especially when you expect something different from the director who gave us the deadly 'Shaitan' and silent slow killer 'David'. Bejoy Nambiar's portrayal of dramatic representations of realistic scenes backfired the movie with over sentiments and worthless cliches. He follows his style with slow-motion songs sequences, overtones and brilliant background score. His extra effort to explain every move and turn of the movie disconnected the viewer from the world of imagination, however performances of Amitabh Bachchan and Farhan Akhtar made up the gaps thus giving the viewers something to carry away after the movie.
Wazir is not a thriller movie, but proves that stories do exist in Bollywood.
