Ajay Devgn's crime thriller, whose climax is so terrifying that it will shake you to your core

It's been 15 years since the release of Ajay Devgn-Akshay Khanna's film Aakrosh. Directed by Priyadarshan, the film was released in 2010 and produced by Kumar Mangat Pathak. However, this film, based on honor killing, didn't do well at the box office.

Ajay Devgan's film Aakrosh

Ajay Devgn's film Aakrosh, released on October 15, 2010, focused on honor killings. The film was inspired by incidents of honor killings in India and is said to be a remake of the 1988 film Mississippi Burning, based on the 1964 murders of Chaney, Goodman, and Schwerner.

Story of the film Aakrosh

The story of the film Aakrosh revolves around two CBI officers, Pratap Kumar (Ajay Devgan) and Siddhant Chaturvedi (Akshaye Khanna), who are sent to investigate the disappearance of three medical students. The case takes place in a village where casteism and honor killings are rampant.

A terrifying twist comes in the story of the film Aakrosh

The film Aakrosh depicts how, despite their best efforts, CBI officers are unable to apprehend the perpetrators of honor killings. In fact, the local police are also in cahoots with the perpetrators. Then, Bipasha Basu reveals a major secret to Ajay and Akshay, and the entire story takes a turn.

The climax of the film Aakrosh is mind-boggling

If you've seen the film Aakrosh, you'll know its climax, but if you haven't, you should watch it immediately. The last 20 minutes reveal mind-boggling secrets. Bipasha Basu plays a key role in this film, revealing how the three medical college students were murdered and where their bodies were hidden.

Ajay Devgan's film Aakrosh was a flop

Director Priyadarshan's film Aakrosh was made on a budget of ₹38 crore (US$1.8 billion). However, it only grossed ₹19.4 crore (US$1.94 billion). The film stars Ajay Devgn, Akshaye Khanna, Bipasha Basu, Paresh Rawal, Reema Sen, and Pankaj Tripathi in lead roles. However, Bipasha and Reema had very small roles in the film. Bipasha plays Ajay's ex-lover and Paresh's wife.

Ajay Devgan's 7 films were released in 2010.

Ajay Devgn had seven releases in 2010: Once Upon a Time in Mumbai, Aakrosh, Golmaal 3, Toonpur Ki Superhero, Teen Patti, Atithi Tum Kab Jaoge, and Raajneeti. Four of these were flops.
