EXCLUSIVE REVIEW BY HANUMANT BHANSALI
It is such a waste of precious time and money for making a half-hearted film like Mission Istaanbul which boasts of a promising script but falters to the maniacs of director Apoorva Lakhia.
Maker of films like Mumbai Se Aaya Mera Dost, Ek Ajnabee and Shootout At Lokhandwala, director Apoorva Lakhia is blessed with immense talent but his interest in particular techinique of film making takes a toll on other parts of the film. In Mission Istaanbul’s case, he has discovered unconventional love for action stunts.
Vikas Sagar (Zayed Khan), a capable and talented journalist, is undergoing an agonizing divorce with his wife Anjali (Shreya Saran). He gets a lease of life when a Turkish based news channel head – Owais Hussain (Sunil Shetty) offers him a lucrative package to head his channel in Istaanbul.
Vikas accepts the offer and does his job commendably well but now he is stuck in a web, which won’t allow him to quit the job as he may become dangerous for some sections of the society over there.
