Baby, and other Bollywood films dealing with terrorism

The first film with which Hrithik Roshan came into his own as an actor, Mission Kashmir tells the story of an orphan (Hrithik) who discovers that his dad had been killed by his adopted cop-father (Sanjay Dutt). That revelation is responsible for his transformation into a terrorist who makes an entry into the scene of action with a well-planned mission code-named Mission Kashmir. He has a boss, but he is preoccupied by his goal of killing his adopted father. Commercial reasons lead to dilutions in the focus that could have been avoided. A fine film nonetheless.
