APAHARAN BLU RAYAfter 'Gangajal', Prakash Jha comes up with yet another gripping tale of an organized crime in the cow belt, this time picking up the issue of 'Apaharan' i.e. kidnapping. No, he doesn't try to solve the issue but presents to audience the tale of what happens behind the scene of this organized crime. While both the print and satellite media merely flashes the headlines, the director has gone a few steps ahead to show the 'why' and the 'how' of it!SYNOPSIS: The film begins with the newspaper clippings and satellite channels breaking news about kidnapping in the state of Bihar that is happening on an almost daily basis. Amongst all this, there is Ajay Shastri [Ajay Devgan], a medical representative, who aspires to get into police department. In spite of two failed attempts, he hasn't lost hope and gets ample support from his love Megha [Bipasha Basu]. His father Professor Raghuvansh Shastri [Mohan Aghashe] is a Gandhian, a man of principles and aims at exposing the lawbreakers.Meanwhile the government is being run through the nexus of Home Minister [Chetan Pandit] and Tabrez Alam [Nana Patekar], and in their scheme of things the people involved are politicians, police, criminals and bureaucrats. A political leader of the minority, Tabrez is ruthless and uses the name of religion to keep his flag high. Gaya Singh [Yashpal Sharma] is the prime member of his gang and operates from jail while Murali [Murali Sharma] is the middleman who 'arranges' for the kidnapping. There are a few honest folks like Anwar Khan [Mukesh Tiwari], a cop and Akash Ranjan [Anoop Soni], a journalist who represent that facet of society that still has some conscience left.Ajay's dream of getting into police is just round the corner when a scandal breaks that results in him loosing the job. Meanwhile his father's life is in danger and he is left with no option than to join the world of crime. He gets his first kidnapping assignment that turns out to be a failed attempt and leads him to jail. He soon gets himself out and after killing Gaya Singh joins the gang of Tabrez Alam.
