Script Analysis(story, Screenplay, Dialogues): Movie is inspired by the real-life events in Pakistan. The movie is set in the period of 1994-2006. It tells the story of Ayan(Emraan Hashmi) a struggling salesman fights the system to uncover the dark secret of his companies products. The Story is fresh and as it is inspired by true events, the story makes us more engaged in the movie. The movie is only 90 Minutes long but its problem is slow pacing. The screenplay is ok could have added more scenes towards the climax for a more powerful Impact. The movie is not filmed in a typical Bollywood style, It is more of an art movie. As art movies are slow and more focus are there on the story, It is like that. Dialogues are good.
Star Performances: Emraan Hashmi has delivered a sincere and earnest performance. He is apt in every Scene. Adil Hussain is good as an antagonist. Maryam d’Abo is good as Maggie. Special mention for Satyadeep Mishra who plays Dr.Nadeem. Supriya Pathak is underutilised. All other have provided the required support well.
Technical Aspect(direction, Background Scores, Music): Movie is directed by Oscar-winning Director Danis Tanovic. The direction is good. It has a documentary type of feel. Background score is good. Songs are played in the background of the movie and are situation base. The movie is made in 2014 but didn’t get the theatrical release. The movie can be watched on the ZEE5 digital platform.
Verdict: it is a well-made movie. Little slow pace but length of the movie is not long. You can watch it on Zee5 Digital platform.
