Movie Previews
Vikas Sagar (Zayed Khan) is one of the most promising journalists in the country. Owais Husain (Sunil Shetty) who heads a controversial Istanbul based news channel makes him an offer to head the channel for an outrageous salary and other perks. This offer came at a better time for Vikas who was undergoing a painful divorce with his wife Anjali (Shriya Saran)

But little does he know that one decision will change his life forever. When he voices his plans to quit the channel, he is reminded by Turkish commando, Rizwan Khan (Vivek Oberoi), how others who quit had been bumped off because they knew too much.

In a place where the gun has the last laugh, will a journalist survive or will he fall prey like many others?

Mission Istaanbul Music Review
Apoorva Lakhia certainly likes to make movies with strong men in tow. Ek Ajnabee, Shootout At Lokhandwala and now Mission Istaanbul - ‘macho’ has been the keyword in each of the films made by the young director. If Shootout At Lokhandwala was his biggest film till date, Mission Istaanbul seems to be taking a step forward with global terrorism as the theme.

Just like SAL, Apoorva ropes in multiple composers for Mission Istaanbul too with contribution coming from Anu Malik, Shamir Tandon, Chirantan Bhatt and Mika Singh. With expectations of a zany score with strong Western and Turkish flavor (due to the setting of the film), one plays on the soundtrack of Mission Istaanbul.

The mood is set right at the beginning of the album with a female voice taking you right into the by-lanes of Turkey. Rendered by Kunal Ganjawala, Gayatri Ganjawala and Raaj, ‘World Hold On World Hold On’, which is written by Shabbir Ahmed, is a decent hear with composer Shamir Tandon fusing Western arrangements into this theme song. A young number which moves at a good pace, albeit reminding of the style from the 80s, it should be a decent watch on screen though it’s ‘remix version’ is fair for a club outing.

There is added fun in the offering with the arrival of the title song ‘Mission Mission’. Written and sung by Hamza Faruqui, the young man who has earlier been heard in Aggar, ‘Mission Mission’ could have made for a much better experience had it been supported by a better music video. In any case, the song in itself is an out and out club track which goes well with the theme of the film and creates a high voltage impact. There is certain ferocity in the way Chirantan Bhatt composes the tune of ‘Mission Mission’ which deserves to be heard at a high volume.
