Vadh

The story is simple..very simple. A father takes loan for his son's better career in USA with a loan shark. He needs to break the shackle and he does in an unconventional way. However, the way sanjaya mishra and neena gupta perform as a parent you will feel the story is very near to you. In fact in your neighborhood. There is nothing in the story seems out of line. The tight script is the heart of the story.

I was wondering through youtube and came to know about "Checkovs gun" while writing a script . Here in this movie please focus on "Manohar Kahaniya" that sanjay mishra reads and sleeps while reading. The book keeps on coming in the story and O boy the director has used that prop so beautifully through out the movie.

A worthful watch.

The whole story centers around the blessing for a kid in disguise of the old couple who protected her. The character play of pandit ji and his wife is well played by the Sanjay and neena ji. Though the story overall sound like a story taken from a magazine but presented beautifully on the big screens. The entire cast have played their individual roles very well. So many emotions, hint of suspense and thrill makes it a whole. The locality, scenes, resources are perfectly picturised to shoot the scenes. Who likes to watch something new and theme based movies, should go for this one. Completely raw, no show off, no glitter, purely a middle class old couple story.

When you have two seasoned actors like Sanjay Mishra and Neena Gupta in the main roles, it is definite that you will watch some high class acting irrespective of the quality of the script. These two veterans always get under the skin of characters they play and also have the talent to rise above a mundane script. Fortunately the script and dialogue of this movie is good and the director has ensured that audience interest is maintained all through. The plot has enough suspense and though there are hardly any surprises it may not be right to call it predictable because it isn't. Sanjay and Neena play an aged middle class couple who have a son working in America. Sanjay had to take money from a loan shark to finance his son's move to America. Now with no money coming in from his son he defaults on payments and the loan shark make life hell for the old couple and they are also in the danger of losing their home to the money lenders.

Director duo Jaspal Singh Sandhu and Rajeev Barnwal have made the movie quite gripping and there are some tense moments. As mentioned the acting of the lead couple is top class. They make the entire narrative believable. Saurabh Sachdeva as the villain has done exceedingly well and his menacing look brings in the desired effect. Manav Vij plays the cop with conviction. This movie may not appeal to average audiences since it is not the typical commercial mainstream cinema and there is no humour, music or any such entertainment.

Rather than fake and irrelevant larger than life cinema, Bollywood need to focus on casting, story and really well acted movies. I was. My friend repeatedly asked me to see this movie and I wasn't keep of watching it as it looks a bit depressing movie but surprisingly movie gets better and better, I was so hooked on such a great acting by all the actors. Realistic locations and great story and screenplay . Such an underrated movie. I wish Bollywood makes these sort of movies to keep it originality rather than fake "larger than life" garbage. Such a great cinematography and direction. Definitely recommended.

Got to experience a different kind of film, the best thing about it is that its simplicity.

Sanjay ji never disappoints with his acting and so is with Neena madam, seeing both of them together gives a different experience in itself.

Even if there is no great twist in the film but its performance and the slow progress of the story seems very good, many people will compare it with Drishyam and add names, but it is wrong.

Yes, I agree that the method of the story is similar, but its story and characters.

The acting keeps us connected in a different way and gives us fun.

Worth Watch, personally I Loved the Story and Acting.
