Editing-Excellent
Style-Excellent
Irrfan- EXCELLENT EXCELLENT EXCELLENT
I would rate this movie a 5/5 and this could be my favorite movie of the year only if it was a fictional story.
Alas,it isn't and here comes the disappointment. (SPOILERS below)
Unlike what they said, the film is so biased towards the Talwars, bent on making the audience sympathize with the parents. Why was Irrfan cast as the officer supporting the parents and not the other party? Why was Irrfan's character and situations written as if he is this honest officer being a victim to office politics? Why wasn't someone equally known and competent like Irrfan chosen to play the role of the officer supporting the employees of the Talwars? Even though they show Irrfan's negative side by pressurizing a guy to become a Government witness,they smartly make that negative side of his vanish by immediately showing how he has been a victim of office politics. Time and again, from the start, it is clearly visible that the film is leaning towards the innocence of the parents,which I feel isn't fair for a case like this which has reached a dead end with suspicion till in the minds of everyone who has followed the case from start.
But except that bit, the other aspects of the film are brilliant, especially the final CBI meeting of the two teams. How could all the actors be so damn natural? That whole conversation of Shruti and Kempal's sex position was ridiculous but totally understandable...that's how everyone had been discussing Aarushi and Hemraj during the murders. I also loved the dry jokes in the film,especially Konkona's 'Chalo ab rona shuru karna hai'. The parts that involved the murder of Shruti were really difficult to watch, especially for people who had been following the case regularly since 2008, and the resemblance of Shruti's dead body with Aarushi's made it all the more difficult.
8 years, no one still knows what happened that night. The parents are in jail, the case is closed, the parents r the other party can be equally innocent but thanks to the chutiyapa of the police in the initial investigation stage, Aarushi will never get justice. I still liked the way they ended the story like it happened in real.
This has got to be the only movie after Kahaani to have such a tight and crisp script and screenplay. Would have given a 5 but only due to the Talvar angle, giving it a 3/5.
The last line in the film about how Aarushi would be 22 years old but she wasn't allowed to be even 15 makes the whole case so heartbreaking because at the end of the day it was Aarushi who was called characterless,with fake mms of hers being telecast by disgusting news channels like India TV.
