If you take a closer look atÿAkshay Kumar?sÿrecent films, you?ll realise he is positioning himself as the brand new champion of the crusade against corruption. Be it Special 26 or Holiday or Baby, khiladi kumar is using the concept of vigilante justice as the bait, and he’s beating competition to pulp at their own game.

His latest Gabbar Is Back is more of the same, just that this time the stakes were astronomical. But has he played his game well this time?

The canvas unfolds in Maharashtra where the system is so rotten that the doctors perform operations on a dead body, so that they could extract money from worried relatives. There are hardly any government officials who don?t take pride in receiving bribe; in fact they consider it equivalent to some badge of honour. Police officers are busy eating ?samosas? while politicians are just saving their chairs.
