Nikhil Advani’s sixth feature film D-Day was an accomplished work. It was a thriller about the enforced extradition of a Dawood-like gangster. But what we came away with was a haunting love story between a mysterious Indian intelligence agent and a Pakistani prostitute, both wounded and scarred for life. She in ways that we can see. He in intangible ways. But pain, at the end of the day, is pain. It’s what binds together the whore and the ex-army man.
Shot in an expertly constructed brothel sets with the crowded colours of lurid sex suggesting the tragedy of lives lived in borrowed beds, the scenes between Arjun Rampal and Shruti Hassan are punctured by piercing silences and a haunting melody about love loss and incomplete lives sung by Rekha Bharadwaj. The screenplay by Advani, Ritesh Shah and Suresh Nair constructs a collage of characters hell bent on a collision course.
