Great Actor, but Movie is Incomplete

The film suffers from unnecessary adult scenes and a lack of connection between the stories. Manoj's dialogues are often hard to understand, not due to volume but poor voice clarity, making key moments frustrating. While natural delivery is appreciated, essential lines must remain audible. Additionally, the attempt to highlight the 2G Scam feels underwhelming; the narrative deserved a stronger, more coherent approach. Overall, the execution fails to engage effectively, leaving a lot to be desired in both storytelling and technical aspects. I dont know about other reviews who are saying it is great movie and all.

No Thrill

Anwar Says: The film was marked as thriller but you are hardly thrilled. Tension is found only on the face of Manoj Bajpayee , not in the movie. It took eight years to get released, this Kanu Behl directorial debut, containing all the ingredients for investigating journalism but your wait doesn't end till the film is over. The role, though tailor made for Manoj , but he should reconsider the decision to carry the movie alone.The supporting cast did well, particularly the females in the life of Manoj. His frustration of a disturbed married life, hardly get solace with a much younger girlfriend and the occasional fling with co-journalist Noorie, ably played by Rii Sen. So many angles were put in like 2G spectrum scam, shell companies , D-Company and hardly finds any breakthrough.On the whole, I had lot of expectations after watching Behl's TITLI and AGRA , when Manoj is in the lead but was disappointed. 4 out of 10 from me.#ZEE5 #anwarsays #thriller #manojbajpayee #InvestigativeJournalism #printmedia #kanubehl #outdated #movie2024.
