Qaid: No Wayyy Out

Qaid...no way out is a superb film!!!...For a film with a gay story line and absolutely shocking violence, is surprising to know, that it has a female director ......The direction by Sonia is first rate.!....The main leads Mohinder Kholi and Tai Khan are terrific!!!...The film depicts the domestic violence that we all have seen or heard about near us but failed to address..The film addresses that domestic violence in a brutal way!!!...They could have edited out some of the long scenes of other character artistes which prolonged the film..The film could have been a bit crisper..but otherwise it kept you tied to the story pretty well! .. On the whole a fantastic film...!!!

The trailer said inspired by true events and guess what it really is. When I began i wasnt aware that the movie is going to be so heart wrenching. The story educates one of the atrocities that can happen to a gay person. The movie has been superbly directed and the role of Jigar is amazingly played by Mohinder who suffers in silence and that is the truth in our society. Wether women or men the film shows that the suffering is the same, the domestic violence pattern is same. Role of Mihir who plays the abuser, is perfectly played by Tai khan and his acting is so believable. Other actors in the film also have perfect placement and have done their part just right. I am just not used to 2 and half hour long movie but still the actors and the director, all nailed it. Kudos to them.

I would highly recommend the movie.

I recently watched it in a screening with some friends.

From storyline to music, romantic to action scenes and from direction to quality of acting, everything in this film is so brilliantly portrayed and executed. Don't be fooled by the slow start and the running time of around 2.5 hours, every scene has a meaning and everything makes sense.

New faces and yet both actors have nailed their parts. Quality of acting is superb in fact 100% better than some of the A level cast.

The intimate scenes in the movie are so beautifully filmed and doesn't feel forced and does not make viewers unconformable at all. The first quarter may feel slow but as the story proceeds it picks up momentum ties up the viewers. The climax is impressive and full of unexpected twists and turns.

In summary, it's very fresh and unique concept, which audience will appreciate. One of the most aesthetically filmed Hindi LGBTQ movie.

I don't review movies much but I couldn't resist this one. I watched this in a festival and i wish the rating had more than 10 stars and a bow down emoji. What a unique concept I must say! I was surprised that no one has spoken about this subject till now. And someone that to a woman took the courage to make a film on this such a bold topic. Hats off!! Not that the story is only relevant to gay community but being a gay myself I can relate to the struggles of people from this community. I have seen and heard so many stories about people who suffers from domestic violence in silence and this story perfectly stitches the physiological trauma and the patterns of DV. It's a gripping story and keeps you on the edge. And the songs Oh my god! Although my favourite is 'Mainu Mere Jeha' , I often grove some moves on 'Teri Meri Zindari' with friends. Performance by actors Tai Khan and Mohinder deserve a standing ovation to be honest. Even the supporting cast has done their part brilliantly. Overall this film is full of emotions and definitely not for faint hearts. I can't wait for this it to be available on digital platforms so that i can show it in my circle. A must watch film!!

This is the best movie I have watches as per the based on domestic violence and based on true incidents. Story line and direction is also done really well. Acting wise all the artist has given their 100%. Songs are alsor really nice. These kind if films give the society really great message with the full entertainment. The whole amazing thing is the ending of this film intence audience could believe this can also happens. Movie making is not easy job when these kind of films come audience must appropriate and must watch to give the encourage the writers, directors and producers to make these kind of movies.
