For decades, Lord Paul's pound sterling 650 million Caparo group has been a big name in steel industry, but this movie is the group's first foray into films.``I think it is a very powerful film. This is the first time I have been described as Angad's father,'' Lord Paul said referring to the success of the film and his son.

Angad is the executive producer of the film, part financed by the Caparo group. It has hugely popular British pop singer Sting and well-known soccer star Vinnie Jones in its star-cast. ``At present, there is no plan to release the film with Hindi sub-titles.I do not want to marginalise myself into Indian territory,'' Harrow-educated Angad said. ``Tom Cruise thinks it is the best film he has seen. Dustin Hoffman wants to be in our next project,'' Angad, who has his own sales and distribution companies, said. He believes the film will do well in the United States ``although the humour may may prove a little too subtle for Americans.''

``Stylistically consistent with the look of a 1950s movie, its virtuoso passages of flash techniques, slow-motion, shuddering double and treble exposures, oddly angled close ups, are all integrated into the whole. The effect is immensely satisfying,'' The Evening Standard said about the film. ``There may not be a more exciting debut this year from a British film-maker,'' it said.

Written and directed by 29-year-old Guy Ritchie, the film revolves around a group of boys from London's East End who steal 250,000 pounds from another gang in order to settle a gambling debt. ``Through a series of coincidences and connections, allprotagonists become embroiled in an increasingly fevered quest for cash, drugs, and antique shot guns.''

``Every character seems like the genuine article, whether they are or not... The film is laced with a razor-edged wit and a visual confidence which delivers scenes of grotesque Jacobian violence that seduce you into believing you are seeing more than you actually are,'' The Standard said.
