To make it worse, our hero’s head is wanted by terrorists fighting for Kashmir. The hero takes them head on to save Mumbai from a bomb blast. <br /><br />In first-time director Rohit Shetty’s <span style="" font-style:="" italic="">Zameen</span>, which releases this Friday, Colonel Ranvir Ranawat captures the architect of a pro-Kashmir terrorist organisation. Some months later, he is on hot pursuit of four more rebels from across the border. A parallel chase in Mumbai brings him into contact with a police official and the two unearth a huge plot against <span style="" font-style:="" italic="">Bharat Ma</span>. <br /><br />Terrorists, bomb blasts, and war epics are all hot subjects in Bollywood, but that’s not what we are getting at. All the above characters have been played by action master Ajay Devgan, all in a span of under three months. <br /><br />For those who have had enough of Devgan playing a cop -– the most recent being his role in Prakash Jha’s <span style="" font-style:="" italic="">GangaaJal </span>-– there is better news. Devgan is ditching the police uniform and donning army fatigues now. We didn’t say good news, remember?<br /><br />You will see Devgan in camouflage gear in <span style="" font-style:="" italic="">Zameen </span>and war specialist J P Dutta’s upcoming <span style="" font-style:="" italic="">LoC</span>. <br /><br />As tbey say, there is non-stop action in Bollywood. <br /><br />And for Devgan, after two National Awards, a string of successes this year (<span style="" font-style:="" italic="">Bhoot, Qayamat</span>) and loads of acclaim (<span style="" font-style:="" italic="">GangaaJal</span>), the actor can afford to take it easy, since he must be saying his dialogues in sleep. </div> </div>
