I’ve always felt that trains provide a naturally tense and somewhat cramped atmosphere for a thriller, and with Lakshya being quite pleasant to watch while demonstrating considerable skill—handling everything from fire extinguishers to bathroom fixtures—the story follows an attempt to stop a group of roughly thirty bandits who board a train bound for Delhi and proceed to violently rob the passengers. That was essentially their initial plan until they realized that wealthy "Baldeo" (Harsh Chhaya) was traveling with his family. Forget about finding a few old iPhones or some cheap jewelry; their energetic young leader, "Fani" (Raghav Juyal), decides to take them hostage instead. This turns out to be a significant error because it’s revealed that Baldeo's daughter, "Tulika" (Tanya Maniktala), is the object of affection for our determined commando, "Amrit." As events escalate into violence and tragedy, this sparks in him an intense need for revenge, which demonstrates just how effective training at the National Commando School of India really is. Accompanied by his colleague “Viresh” (Abhishek Chauhan), and with assistance from a couple of brave passengers, the two soldiers find themselves severely outnumbered but remarkably resourceful. This isn't a film where you’re going to pay attention to the conversations—there aren't many, and what few there are don’t really carry much weight. It’s simply a nonstop, action-packed display of acrobatic brutality that isn’t entirely believable—I suspect in reality, everyone would have been killed off by those deadly kukri strikes far sooner—but director Nikhil Nagesh Bhat manages to build the suspense quite effectively. Admittedly, some of the fight sequences are a bit too staged and repetitive, and it probably won't inspire confidence in Indian Railways; however, it’s just as entertaining as its Hollywood counterparts. Be advised that the violence is extremely graphic, but I found it enjoyable and wouldn't be surprised to see Lakshya appearing in more films aimed at Western audiences.
