'Azhar': A poor innings of half truths: Rating: **

Director Tony D'souza and writer Rajat Arora fail to do justice to a subject which had the potential of becoming an interesting film, had it been tackled sincerely and taken the route of a well-told biopic. Instead, this lazily-crafted screenplay, which goes into flashbacks, offers nothing exciting to the viewer. Some of the dialogues, albeit feebly inspirational, elicit a response from the audience, but fail to strike the right chord.
