Story of Aiyaary
The story of Aiyaary is about two Indian Army officers who get into a tussle regarding the general conception of working of the arms dealing system. The honest systematic officer Colonel Abhay Singh (Manoj Bajpayee) and the other officer played by Sidharth get into a rogue where one chases the other for going out of the rules. In the movie Sidharth plays a rebel officer to do all he can do to bring everything under control in reference to arms dealings and Abhay Singh has been given the task to stop him. Colonel in the movie goes to all length and breadth to complete any task that he has been given. How Abhay Singh tries to bring the other officer under control and fights the common enemy along with the other officer is a twist that ties the movie together.

Star Performance
The movie is full of the stars of acting. It has a starcast of Sidharth Malhotra, Manoj Bajpayee, Anupam Kher and Rakul Preet Singh. The most impactful role in the movie is played by Manoj Bajpayee who is known for giving great performance in any and every kind of role. However, to much wonder even Sidharth Malhotra who is rather known for his rom-com role in movies like ‘Student of the Year’. In this movie he performed great in a rather first of his thriller movie flick. However Anupam Kher and Nazeeruddin Shah’s role was rather a hide and seek one and not much was provided no much could be seen of their talent. All in all the balance in the movie was losing because of not much appreciation given to great cast in the movie.
Direction and Music Review
The direction of the movie is mind blowing and Neeraj Pandey is known for great movie direction as seen in his previous directed movies. However, one thing is sure that the movie’s direction is mind blowing, with regard to intense dialogue deliveries, location or action sequels. The movie has not been able to keep up with the extreme thrill of the previously directed flicks. The music of the movie is average as the main focus in a Neeraj Pandey movie is on the storyline. The most loved song from the movie album is ‘Le Dooba’ as sung by Sunidhi Chauhan. The other songs of the movie are- Yaad Hai, Shuru Kar, Lae Dooba too.
Box Office Collection
