This movie is a brilliant movie , and nothing short of that .

A bit too ahead of its time . Indian audiences are probably not yet prepared for this . This explains virtually empty theater where i went to watch it . But don't get me wrong , this is a great movie .

A very complex plot seamlessly woven with subplots , Very complex . The plot and the speed of the movie remind you of the SOPRANOS . where a lot happens without you realizing it, unless you take a second to comprehend . And the atmosphere is also a lot like the SOPRANOS . It has one of the best cinematography i have ever seen in any movie from any country .Rajeev Ravi deserves an award for that . The movie is a visual spectacle . It also has a psychedelic quality that reminds you of APOCALYPSE NOW. The acting is all round brilliant with kay kay menon stealing the show . although i was slightly disappointed with Raj Singh Chaudhary . he tends to slur his lines sometimes . The music blends in so well with the movie ,the continuity is never broken . And there is a big twist in the movie. i wont tell you when and what . It will just spoil everything. To sum up . Great movie overall , great acting . very complex and dark plot . great cinematography . Good acting from everyone . This is not a typical brainless Indian movie , should appeal to quality seeking audiences everywhere .
