Shahgird, directed by Tigmanshu Dhulia, is a gripping crime thriller that delves into the darker side of law enforcement and the moral complexities of its officers. The film follows a seasoned, cynical cop, portrayed by Nana Patekar, who runs an unorthodox and corrupt unit in a dangerous city. His young, idealistic recruit, played by Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub, finds himself torn between his duties and the brutal reality of the police force.
Patekar's commanding performance is the standout, capturing his character's moral decay and ruthless nature with finesse. Ayyub also shines in his role, bringing emotional depth to his character's inner conflict. The film's intense narrative is complemented by Dhulia's sharp direction and a dark, moody atmosphere that keeps the audience engaged throughout. However, Shahgird is not without its flaws, with certain plot elements feeling predictable. Still, it remains an engaging portrayal of power, loyalty, and corruption.

Nana did great job as well as other actors director and story writers were same i guess but script was also written good nice dialogue delivery but somewhere in the direction movie felt dramatic even though deserves one watch
Tigmanshu Dhulia's 'Shagird' is a well-made, gripping film, that has many twists & turns on its side. But, above all, its Nana Patekar, who deserves the highest praises. Like Always, The National-Award-Winning Iconic Actor, pitches in a Masterful Performance & Own This Film!
'Shagird' Synopsis: A rookie cop questions the tactics of his superior, and attempts to track the abductors of his girlfriend.
'Shagird' went unnoticed at the box office, and that's truly sad. Its a well-made, gripping film, along-with some clever twists & turns. The film does have some minuses, but overall, the pluses outshine the minuses.
Tigmanshu Dhulia's Screenplay is gripping & offers some very good twists. His Direction, on the other-hand, is competent. Cinematography & Editing are ordinary.
Nana Patekar's Masterful Performance is truly the Highlight of this under-rated flick. The Amazing Actor sinks his teeth into the part & performs like a freaking rock-star. This performance is among his best to date. Among other performances, Mohit Ahlawat does a fair job. Zakir Hussain & Anurag Kashyap are superb.
On the whole, 'Shagird' is a well-made film in all respects. A Must See for Nana Patekar Fans!

Simple awesome! That's how I'd best describe this movie if words were limited. But words won't do. You've got to watch this film to know what I mean.
A cop story against the corrupt system, which is so often covered in Bollywood, but with twists and turns and action scenes that you will NEVER expect, and awesome dialogue work by Nana Patakar will keep you hooked for the entire length of the film.
Music is alright, the storyline is the best. There is no choreography.
Seriously, this film deserved more attention.
9 on 10 for Shagird.
