Two movies back to back which dealt with Indian POWs; Veer Zaara and Deewaar. Although Veer Zara was a love story of a guy who gives everything up for someone, Deewaar focuses on the main subject itself. It is not hidden... Full review

But the escape drama is brilliantly mapped.....Rao's 'seductive' song which comes right at the middle of the main drama, is more idiotic than erotic.....The improbabilities often threaten to swamp the film's undoubtedly meritorious adventurous spirit.....Aadesh Shrivastava's music is far more effective in the background....Among the very competent supporting cast of prisoners Arif Zakaria's silence speaks louder than words..... ...

The soundtrack of Deewaar defies the mammoth expectations....But the music turns out to be just about average which is disappointing for a project of such stature.....Sonu Nigam is honest in trying to give....Sung extremely well by Krishna, the track is put to good music by Aadesh Shrivastava....Lyrics by Nusrat Badr too aren't any different from many other patriotic songs from the past.... ...
