From ‘Anarchism to Assassination’ from ‘Crime to Corruption’ & from ‘Law to Lies’

He may have committed professional hara-kiri with ‘Ram Gopal Verma ki Aag’ and ‘Cash’.
But Ajay Devgan seems all set to regain the glory of ‘Gangaajal’ and ‘Apaharan’ with the action-packed, hard-hitting ‘Halla Bol’.
A behind-the-scenes look at the Hindi film industry and how it changes the lives of those connected with it.
The promos of this Rajkumar Santoshi film set for a December 21st release.
Which are doing the rounds and from the look of it.
The year promises to end on a high for all those associated with ‘Halla Bol’.
The 64-second promo of ‘Halla Bol’ captures just what the film is meant to be.
It’s Powerful, in your face, edge-of-the-seat stuff.
The fact that the film uncovers the murky world of showbiz and shows the degeneration of Ajay’s character is evident from the outset of the promo.
As a grim Devgan looks straight into the camera, a plethora of words make their way onto the screen.
It’s from ‘Anarchism to Assassination’, from ‘Crime to Corruption’ and from ‘Law to Lies’.
All powerful, laden terms followed by the lines ‘Now it’s time to live . .. to stand …. to fight ….. for what you believe’, giving the viewer an insight into what ‘Halla Bol’ is all about.
The promo then cuts to a succession of images.
A distraught Vidya Balan clutching on to a blood-spattered dupatta.
A stern-looking Pankaj Kapoor and a huge crowd of rioting people.
Blood, Murder, and Mayhem.
The ‘Halla Bol’ promo has ample doses of it all.
With Ajay waving to a mammoth mob amid the unending glare of flashbulbs.
It’s time to raise your voice The promo ends with the words ‘It’s time to raise your voice’.
A lot rides on the success of ‘Halla Bol’.
If Ajay Devgan is hoping for a hit after a long gap, then Rajkumar Santoshi is eager to forget the Family fiasco.
The film’s success will also complete a 2007 hat-trick for Vidya Balan after ‘Heyy Babyy’ and ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa’.
This movie is Produced by Abdol Samee Siddiqi,
‘Halla Bol’ music has been scored by Sukhwinder Singh.

Director Raj Kumar Santoshi comes up with one more film that touches a sensitive social issue. ‘Halla Bol’ is like an awakening call to the conscience of a generation.

The film stars Ajay Devgan, Vidya Balan, Pankaj Kapur and Darshan Jariwala.

Don’t miss the film’s slideshow (story in pictures) at Halla Bol .

Ajay Devgan as Ashfaque
He is a small-town boy who does street theatre before entering the film world and making a niche there for himself. Then he becomes a superhero intoxicated by his own success. But then comes a wake up call.

Vidya Balan as Sneha
She dares to love a man who is not from her community or religion despite obvious opposition. And then, after she is married to him and he becomes a superstar, her fight takes a different form. Now she fights for the sanctity of her marriage and for the safety of her embattled husband.

Pankaj Kapur as Siddhu
He is a dacoit-turned-social crusader. Siddhu has put his past behind and now looks forward to reform society in whatever little way he could. He is a mentor to aspiring actors from small towns. Gentle and yet strong, reasonable and yet ferocious, Siddhu has no qualms about picking up the weapon he once renounced to defend the helpless.

Darshan Jariwala as Gaekwad
He personifies the worst of what a politician can be. Gaekwad is a ruthless man who will manipulate the system, threaten witnesses, subvert the judicial process, just to get his son off the hook.

Synopsis
Ashfaque (Ajay Devgan) is a small town boy aspiring to be a film star in the Hindi film industry. He joins a street theatre group run by a reformed dacoit Siddhu (Pankaj Kapur) who uses street theatre as a medium to bring about an awakening in the masses.

Ashfaque struggles to give a creative vent to the actor in him in order to realize his dreams. Ashfaque's determined struggle pays off and he gets a break in films.

He gets a new screen name - Sameer Khan. With the passage of time, the roles start becoming better and he moves up the success ladder in a very short time.

Soon, Ashfaque becomes Sameer Khan the superstar - one who can enact any role with finesse, get under the skin of any and every character with ease and walk away with audience applause.

Sadly, amidst all adulation and applause, he slowly loses his own identity. He forgets his real self. Corruption takes over his entire system, alienating him from all loved ones, including his wife Sneha (Vidya Balan).

A shocking incident at a party changes everything, shattering Sameer Khan's complacent world. He’s caught between his conscience on one side and his stardom and fame on the other.

Whether the conflict within him gives way to good sense and whether he is able to discard his corrupted image and emerge as a true-life hero, becomes an integral part of this true-life cinema.

‘Halla Bol’ has a cameo by Kareena Kapoor as part of screen footage from her film Omkara with Ajay Devgan.

Other guest appearances are by Jackie Shroff , Tusshar Kapoor (playing a lawyer), Sridevi , Boney Kapoor , Pahlaj Nihalani, Neeraj Vora and Ranjit Kapoor.

‘Halla Bol’ has been written and directed by Rajkumar Santoshi . The film has music by Sukhwinder Singh and Vanraj Bhatia.

Cinematography is by S Natarajan Subramaniam while choreography is by Ganesh Acharya.

‘Halla Bol’ has been produced by Abdul Samee Siddiqui. It is slated to hit the theatres on January 11, 2008.
