Siya

This is Oscar, Bafta, Cannes material. It takes a capable captain to steer the actors, the cinematographers and everyone involved to create this masterpiece. We cried, we huffed and puffed during the entire film. A movie that gets you talking in between is exactly my kind of movie. I tried finding flaws in the direction but couldn't. Throughout the film, it shows the downtrodden people of rural India being defeated and losing an inevitable battle to the system and the evil people in power. But in the last second it shows the survival of the human spirit. Incredible experience. Hope to see stuff more from Manish Mundra.

Very fine direction and excellent performance by entire star cast. This isn't a movie this a sad story of innocent girl from UP India and this case was known as Unnao rape case. I would certainly give this movie 10 star but the director missed BJP party symbol and real name of accused. I personally feel the movie director should use actual facts and specifically in this movie they should have added Bhartiya Janta Party details that's how so called Beti Bachao party real face to public. Such a big shame in 21 century and and that too when BJP is in center and was jn state ruling party. Sorry for diverting the topic from reviews to political critics. But very nice direction and great performance.

Siya is a drama film directed by manish mundra.

Pooja pandey and vineet kumar singh have acted with great application. Vineet is anyway a wonderful actor, but pooja in a difficult role did her part nicely. Other actors were good. They did not have much material to act.

The first shot of the film is a metaphorical one. A long sequence at night, where a sister is narrating a story to his little brother about courage and wits, is a foreshadow of the things about to happen. The first half's writing too is very good. Its engaging and takes one step at a time, making a commentary on caste, police negligence. From the second half, the film starts to deviate. It looked as if the film was in a dilemma whether to show the futility of justice or the procedural to the way of justice. As a result, neither of the things hit us anywhere. Things happen without any closing scene, too many loose ends.

The music is decent. The two songs in the second half are lyrically very touching. One of them is a doha. The background score has been used minimal, mainly the drama of the scene is kept at the forefront. The dialogues are good. At one point, siya herself states "aisi nyay ka kya fayda jise dekhne koi zinda hi na ho." That was a major twist in the film. The film took the route of an open end, which i don't complain about. But the loose ends could have been dealt better.

The sequences of siya's misery is horrific to watch, and its tough to sit through. The film is very raw and gritty for anyone. That's where its negatives feel lighter to its positives. I rate it 8.5 out of 10.

Real story real cinematography Great 👍🏻 It's based on BJP MLA Kuldeep singh sengar from Unnao rape case.

I really enjoyed watching this movie.

Background music good All actor are doing great job.

An honest take on the state of rape survivors in the country, for whom the pursuit for justice is often more tortuous than the crime itself, Siya opens a window to a disturbing space that is not covered by government data and news headlines.

The film marks the directorial debut of Manish Mundra who has produced a string of powerful independent films. The shadow of the Unnao and Hathras rape cases are unmistakable, but Manish opts to look beyond the nuts and bolts of the crime to paint the larger picture.

The content is very painful to see and accept things like this has happened...

The movie is based on a very hard and strong content before also we had seen many movies like this..the movie lacks strong presentation of fight back from victim..the open end was illogical perhaps there should be strong ending to justify the content...strong character were needed to play as CBI chief..the movie emphasised more on the depress content..it fails to give a strong message rather it shows the evil is winning.

It could had been the strongest movie if they could had portrait in a better way

I hope they come back with a another part where the victim fights back strongly.
