Ek Ajnabee is an action thriller Bollywood movie from 2005, directed by Apoorva Lakhia. The movie stars the legendary Amitabh Bachchan, Arjun Rampal, and Perizaad Zorabian in the lead roles. The film is a remake of the Hollywood movie Man on Fire starring Denzel Washington. The plot of the movie revolves around the character of Suryaveer Singh (Amitabh Bachchan), a retired mercenary who is hired by a wealthy and influential family in Mumbai to protect their young daughter Anamika (Rucha Vaidya) from a kidnapping attempt. Suryaveer is initially reluctant to take the job, but he eventually agrees after establishing a bond with Anamika.

Suryaveer soon becomes a part of Anamika's life, and he spends his time bonding with her and keeping her safe. The two become close, and Suryaveer forms a deep emotional connection with the young girl. However, things take a dark turn when Anamika is kidnapped while on a school trip. Suryaveer is devastated by the turn of events and decides to take matters into his own hands to rescue Anamika.

The rest of the movie revolves around Suryaveer's quest to rescue Anamika while dealing with a corrupt police officer, played by Arjun Rampal. Suryaveer uses his military expertise to track down the kidnappers and unleash his wrath upon them. Along the way, he discovers a conspiracy that goes deeper than he initially thought, and his sense of justice is put to the test.

One of the striking features of the movie is Amitabh Bachchan's performance as Suryaveer. He delivers a powerful and nuanced performance, skillfully portraying a flawed and complex character haunted by regrets and guilt. Bachchan's portrayal of Suryaveer is one of the highlights of the movie, and his screen presence is enough to elevate the movie.

Arjun Rampal delivers a solid performance as the corrupt police officer Aditya Shrivastav, who has his own motivations for his actions. He strikes the right balance between menace and charm, and his chemistry with Bachchan makes for some compelling scenes.

Perizaad Zorabian's role as Anamika's mother is relatively small, but she gives a sincere and heartfelt performance. Rucha Vaidya, who plays Anamika, also does a commendable job, and her scenes with Bachchan are heartwarming and emotionally charged.

The movie's writing and direction are not without flaws, as there are some plot holes and pacing issues. However, the movie is well shot and boasts some thrilling action sequences that are sure to keep viewers on the edge of their seats. The movie's soundtrack, composed by Vishal-Shekhar, is also noteworthy, with some catchy and memorable tracks.

Overall, Ek Ajnabee is a tense and gripping action thriller that showcases Amitabh Bachchan's acting prowess. The movie's emotional core and well-executed action sequences make it worth watching, despite its flaws.
