This Yash Raj entertainer focuses on four people with very different personalities, each having their own private motives, as each hopes to get rich.
Anil Kapoor
These include Jimmy Cliff (Saif Ali Khan), a cool call-centre executive and a womaniser.
There is also a gangster by the name of Bachchan Pande (Akshay Kumar) and a beautiful girl, Pooja (Kareena Kapoor).
So when two guys who hate each other and a girl who cannot be trusted are forced to go on a journey across India, their lives change in more ways than one.

Tashan meaning 'style', depicts a journey where even enemies need to trust each other if they want to stay alive.
And to top it all, there is the evil eye of Bhaiyyaji (Anil Kapoor), an eccentric gangster who enjoys killing people as much as he enjoys speaking English.
Tashan marks the debut of Vijay Krishna Acharya as a director. In the past Vijay had contributed to filmmaking as a script and dialogue writer for films like Dhoom, Dhoom 2 and Guru.

And it is not only Vijay who makes a foray into听Bollywood films. Saif Ali Khan's son, Ibrahim, will also be seen for the first time on the silver screen. Ibrahim will play Saif's son in the movie.
Tashan is one of the most eagerly anticipated movies of 2008, promising to surprise its audience with plenty of Hollywood style stunts and action sequences, and it's claimed to be even bigger and than Dhoom 2.
Producer Aditya Chopra called upon the expertise of Hollywood action director Peter Hein to choreograph the action scenes in this film.
The film releases in UK cinemas on 25 April by Yash Raj Films based in London.
