The Story:

The Cast:
Abhishek Bachchan as Masterda Surya Sen
Deepika Padukone as Kalpana Datta
Vishakha Singh as Pritilata Waddedar
Sikander Kher as Nirmal Sen
Mahinder Singh as Anant Singh
The Crew:
Producer: Ajay Bijli, Sanjeev Bijli and Sunita A. Gowariker
Director: Ashutosh Gowariker
Music Director: Sohail Sen
What Worked:
The story definitely has depth and the second half of the movie really makes the idea of the movie come alive. The period film's latter half offers great acting both from Abhishek, Deepika and the rest of the cast. The action scenes are well done and time flies as the intriguing story becomes more and more intriguing.
What Didn't:
The first half of Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Sey has a hard time kicking off. Some scenes are awkward while others are right out bad, especially from the actors playing the British soldiers. The two music numbers seem superfluous and the love story between Abhi and Dips is not very well developed.
The Soundtrack:
Sohail Sen impresses us with his quality music for Khelien Hum Jee Jaan Sey. The composer respectfully adapts his music to fit the film's needs. This music is sure to help the film's flow and add to the intensity of many scenes.
Slated or Rated:
After its slow start, Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Sey picks up and offers viewers action filled scenes, emotional sequences and heartfelt acting. For anyone in the mood of a serious film, along with a history lesson, this movie is a must.
Rating:
4/5 Stars
