The film is based on the book Dongri to Dubai by Hussain Zaidi. It dramatizes the real-life story of Manohar Arjun Surve, popularly known as Manya Surve (played by John Abraham).
The film stood out for its stylized action, sharp dialogues, and a chart-topping soundtrack featuring hits like "Laila" and "Babli Badmaash." Its portrayal of the 1970s and 80s Bombay—a city of mills, chawls, and burgeoning crime—resonated with audiences who enjoy raw, "masala" cinema with a historical edge.
