This movie is remake of Tamil film Mouna Guru (2011). That Tamil film was a very good thriller and a sleeper hit of Tamil box office. A.R Murugados remade two of his film in Hindi but this time he remakes not his own film. the story is engaging and this is a very good choice for him. the original film is not female lead cast movie but he makes thisd movie some little changes.
This is the story of a college girl Akira, she has grown up with the ideals of being self reliant. Her life spirals out of control when she becomes unwillingly involved in a crime involving four corrupt police officers. very good story and very engaging. There are lots of thrilling moments and lots of unorthodox twists in this story. I am not revealing the story but I just want to tell you the twists are very intriguing and full of suspense. You will enjoy it surely.
performance wise Anurag Kashyap has done a very good job and as a corrupt police officer he is the best choice for this role. i think he will think about his acting career also and it will be a very good decision for him. Sonakshi Sinha as Akira has done a good job but not great. It is good for a sexy girl on action with his nice moves but sometimes this is not relevant for her role. I am not telling she is a bad actor. Her screen presence was good but it could have been better if the director just give some reality based content for her role. Rest of the casts are niot very important but Atul Kulkarni and Konkona Sen Sharma have done good job for their role. Music is not up to the mark but background score is good. The stroy and the screenplay were very good but if the director would concentrate the relevancy beyond the theme then this movie would be a gem. The fight sequences are very good and of course watchable and entertaining. I think this is a good comeback for Sonakshi After a serial of flops.
