Review: ‘Azaad’ is a film mounted on a grand scale that performs well in most departments. The plot keeps you engaged, with the horse, central to the story, guaranteed to win your heart. However, the burden of carrying the film by two newcomers becomes a bit much, and this reflects in the execution. Set in British India, the plot revolves around Govind (Aaman Devgan), a stable hand working for Rai Bahadur (Piyush Mishra), a local Zamindar aligned with the British. Govind becomes enchanted by Azaad, a formidable stallion owned by Vikram Singh (Ajay Devgn), a rebel opposing British rule. After Vikram's death, Govind inherits the responsibility of caring for Azaad. As Govind integrates the stallion into his life, tensions escalate when Rai Bahadur's men demand the horse’s surrender, leading to a climactic horse-riding challenge at the Ardh Kumbh fair.
