Storyline

<p>Police Inspector Veer Chauhan is an honest and man, who lives in with his wife, Naina, and a son, Sahil. While Veer likes to go by the book, his partner, Inspector Khan, is exactly the opposite, reckless, and trigger-happy. When Veer is told that his son requires a , Veer does his best, but is unable to come up with any , and is told that Sahil may not live long. Veer finds out that the only person who has the same bone marrow is Bali, a criminal, but the only problem is Bali is not likely to consider donating any of his body, as Veer was the one who had arrested him. A short while later, Bali appears to have a change of heart, agrees to be a donor, and is transported to the hospital, but escapes. After escaping the hospital, Bali kills the evil Inspector Khan. Bali manages to wear a police uniform, and he escapes the hospital. All music is composed by . The film received mixed reviews from critics. of gave the film 2/5 and stated, “Performance-wise, if JUNG belongs to anyone, it is Sanjay Dutt who breathes life into his characterisation. His look is deadly and he carries the most difficult of scenes with aplomb. His performance in this film can be compared to the one in VAASTAV. He is that effective. It is indeed sad that the actor has chosen to disassociate himself from this project, for this role sees him in complete form yet again. Jackie Shroff manages to hold your interest in dramatic portions. Both the heroines ? Raveena Tandon and Shilpa Shetty ? spring a surprise by making their presence felt in a male-dominated show. Raveena impresses a great deal in emotional scenes, while Shilpa is equally competent in a role that was difficult to portray. Aditya Panscholi is effective, but his characterisation is not too well defined. Neeraj Vora’s comedy falls flat. To sum up, JUNG has face value, ample masala for the masses and of course, ‘Aaila Re’, which is one of the major draws. Besides these aspects, the film has generated tremendous controversy, thereby attracting big publicity. Keeping the above factors in mind and also the fact that the opening has been very encouraging, the film is sure to reach the safety mark. However, trimming the film by at least twenty minutes (deleting the two songs is a must!) will make the second half more gripping and effective, thereby giving a boost to its box-office prospects.” of gave a negative review, stating, “Dutt has been playing the antihero in so many films since Khalnayak that he sleepwalks through this one. Though someone with good diction has dubbed for him, the voice sounds nothing like his. Jackie Shroff wears the same confused expression through the film. Raveena Tandon underplays her role and gives a decent performance. Shilpa Shetty’s role in the film is hardly worth a mention yet, as Dutt’s hot girlfriend, she manages to deliver the goods”. Producer Satish Tandon and Sanjay Gupta had differences during the making of this film. Gupta was disappointed by Tandon, who added unwanted scenes without Gupta’s permission. This resulted in Gupta withdrawing himself from credits & he wasn’t credited in the film. But in the end credits, he was credited. Sanjay Dutt, one of the best friends of Sanjay Gupta, refused to dub the film, and his voice was dubbed by another person.</p>
