Emraan Hashmi is back with 'Azhar', 2016 sports biographical film based on the life of India's former captain Mohammad Azharuddin. The movie is interesting, engaging but struggles hard to be exciting enough.'Azhar' remains interesting due to factual data, engaging due to variations pushed in by the director, fails excitement due to lack of cricket in it. We are talking about India's former skipper Mohammad Azharuddin – the man who led Team India in three World Cups – and we are showing cricket with a tight hand during the play; a huge embarrassment for all the cricket and Emraan Hashmi fans.The film mostly remains on the emotional side and when it tries to poke geners like comedy, tragedy and sports; the whole drama turns out to be a mismatch and results in being an amateur dish.While research over script also seems compromised, the detailing about Azhar's character is worth praising. From standing collars to Azhar’s trademark walking style, Emraan Hashmi manages well to stay in Azhar's shoes. Watch Trailer:
