Movie Report
Hijack directed by Kunal Shivdasani talks of terrorists and terrorism, but there's an undercurrent of emotions running all through. What limits can a father cross to save his child, is one question that Kunal Shivdasani raises in Hijack.
The story of 'Hijack' revolves around the life of Vikram Madan (Shiney Ahuja). He is an ex-pilot, who once used to serve in a commercial airline.
However, now he works as a maintenance engineer, in a ground job at the Chandigarh airport. His social life is limited to just on friend, Rajiv, who is the security Chief at the airport. Vikram had lost his wife, in a hijack situation, when he was still a pilot.
The demons from the past come back to haunt him once again, this time when his daughter gets embroiled in a similar situation. Now, he has to come face to face with his past and conquer the long-buried devils.
The terrorists who have hijacked the plane demand the release of their mastermind Rasheed (KK Raina), in exchange of the lives of the innocent passengers. One of the passengers is Vikram's daughter. Now, he has no other option, but to sneak into the aircraft. He is helped in his endeavor by an airhostess on-board the hijacked plane, Saira (Esha Deol).
