Synopsis:

When Dr. Mallika asks her daughter Sonia what she wants for her 18th birthday, Sonia tells her she wants her Dad. Mallika divorced Vikrant Raina when Sonia was just 10. The bitter custody battle was settled in Mallika's favor and Sonia has not met her father for eight long years.

Rebellious Sonia is hell-bent on meeting her dad, but Mallika does not want her to have anything to do with him. After a spat between mother and daughter, Sonia walks off in a huff and doesn't return.

Mallika panics when she gets a call from a stranger that he has kidnapped Sonia. The kidnapper, Kabir, has only one demand - that he will negotiate with nobody but Sonia's father - Vikrant Raina.

Reluctantly Mallika brings Vikrant back into their lives to save Sonia. But Vikrant Raina, one of the richest Indians in the world, with a net worth of 51.7 billion dollars, chokes at the thought of taking orders from a criminal.

But Kabir holds the trump card - he holds Sonia and Vikrant knows he has no option but to toe the line.

It's very simple, Kabir tells him. They are going to play a game - just the two of them. Vikrant has to play by the rules set by Kabir and he has to play alone. He has to play to save his daughter. If he even utters the words 'Hello Police', it will be Bye Bye for Sonia!

Because his daughter's life is at stake, a reluctant Vikrant agrees to obey Kabir's orders. Kabir sets him a series of daunting, time bound tasks. As Vikrant completes each task, he receives a clue that will bring him a step closer to finding Sonia.

And so begins a thrilling, cat and mouse game where Vikrant Raina chases elusive clues through impossible terrain, even as a hawk eyed Kabir keeps a watch on every step he takes. The slightest error or delay on his part and Vikrant will never see his daughter again. But why do all the tasks involve Vikrant having to commit crimes in rising intensity?

Although circumstances have forced Vikrant to take orders from this hateful stranger, he's also a master strategist of many board room battles and a man to be pushed around. Thus he succeeds in outwitting Kabir on more than one occasion.

But then a counter-offensive Kabir puts Sonia's life in jeopardy and Vikrant vows that he will stop at nothing to save his daughter... his only child.

But will he stop at committing murder?

Sanjay Gadhvi, the master director of mega, blockbusters like Dhoom and Dhoom: 2, brings you Kidnap - a high-octane, edge-of-the-seat thriller about the power tussle between a father hell bent on rescuing his daughter and a young man thirsting for revenge!

My Conclusion:
The idea was new but i felt that execution was not so good and there are too many flaws in the script. Along that if some one has seen Sanjay Dutt starrer "Zinda" which came few years back then you will also find the script an outdated one. Since here also the story revolves around a person( Imraan Khan) who wants to take revenge from a person( Sanjay Dutt) who has changed his whole life from childhood, for a misunderstanding.When we talk about acting then its only Imraan Khan show you can say and even Sanjay Dutt will disappoint you with his acting because in many scenes you will find Sanjay Dutt looking tooo dull.And even like Sanjay Gadhvi's Dhoom series here you wont find any action scenes that leave you with some impact. And if i can recollect the movie has one train chase action scene and a building climb up scenes that seems too be ok ok action actions.So its not a Dhoom but its just one time watchable flick.Except the song "Mit Jaye" others doesnt leave nay impact on you too.So bad in terms of music score also.

Overall, i didnt like it so much and i was very dissapointed as i was expecting much more from this movie.

My RATING: 2.5/5
