One line review: Revelation of the darkness hidden inside us that never comes out in the mirror of two-faced society.
Positive points: Superb direction showcasing realistic locations, amazing narration of a unique script, fabulous performances.
Negative points: Unnecessary inclusion of explicit content in the first-half of the movie.
Plot: The film proves to be an anchor for the brutality and harsh reality of the society. It somewhere delivers the ugliest baby of the society to the society itself, the one which they want to get rid off but failed. The flick is based on a short story 'Railway Aunty' written by Mohan Sikka. It begins with a boy Mukesh (Shadab Kamal) who has lost his parents and separated from his sisters as well gets deported to Delhi to his aunty to survive. Here he meets up Sarika aunty (Shilpa Shukla), a seductress homemaker who wills to gorge up on the starves. Nevertheless she succeeds in her motive to achieve Mukesh. This unconventional contraption traps Mukesh into the black hole of prostitution as the time drags by. In a matter of time when Mukesh finds the transformation of himself from a student to a gigolo, its too late. With his two sisters future connected to his fate, Mukesh tries to get himself out of this trash but likely strangles much deeper.
Direction and other technical aspects: First hand director Ajay Bahl comes out with sheer intelligence through his directions. Directorial methods and concepts of this newbie is a treat to watch. Cinematography is too handled by this talent house himself. This as well counts itself in the book of brilliance.
Stepping away from all good-good of the film, the first half of the film consists of unnecessary use of highly adulterated content.
Seeing Deepti Naval, idol of method cinema in such an inappropriate role shakes up the morality of her credibility.
Performances: Shilpa Shukla stands tall among the list of actors. The intensity and maturity portrayed by her as an player or plotter displays the needed negativity as compared to the charater.
Shadab Kamal does justice to his role of a supple youngster who discover the real meanings of pleasure and manipulation throughout his journey.
Rajesh Sharma proves good to bounce up as a grunt, aggressive husband once he is exposed to the reality of his wife.
Music: As per the subject of the film, it does not consist any track as typical. But, the background score adds up a feel of reality to the scenes.
Final Verdict: Overall the film stands out brilliantly as a portrayal of demonized society. It plucks colors from a sensitive ballet of the society. Somehow the explicit artistic strokes could have been replaced by the director to showcase the same. Merely the film ends up conveying that only evil is grown if evil is sowed.
