I recently watched this unique movie, which is a trendsetter in the history of Bollywood movies. The Movie hooks the attention from the beginning and, as the action progresses, underlines various dimensions of life both as a prisoner in the vast world and in the so-called Prisons where one is sent after trial. The story-line and the narrative are excellent in every aspect. The assessment of ethical and unethical is beyond the ordinary logical purview. The Film proves why a Book should not be judged by its cover. It also realistically proves what Shakespeare said: "There are more things in heaven and earth that are measured by our daily philosophy. The gasping agony of a father has been depicted with perfection. The film also proves what divine blessings actually mean for an unfortunate one who is the victim of circumstance. Prison life has been painted as a miniature world where, along with negatives, lots of positives exist. This approach is realistic, and there is no doubt about it.

All the scenes of the movie bear special importance. But the unforgettable one is when Nadir Saab (Mukesh Tiwari) offers Sagar Hussain (Rajpal Yadav) a cup of tea. After a long phase of humiliation, Sagar Hussain bursts into tears and ceaselessly weeping after the magical touch of affection and humanity. Rajpal Yadav proves his genius as an actor. This scene keeps haunting every sensible individual.

The film has both veteran and new actors. The casting is brilliant. Apart from the stalwarts like Kader Khan and Prem Chopra, the new age actors have performed excellently. But this Movie is exceptional for Rajpal Yadav. Yadav proves that he is an actor of all weather and versatility. The film shows how humanity keeps on sailing amidst high tides of odds. The film is definitely a milestone in modern Bollywood movies and is Excellent to watch. I am out of words. The Film has made me a fan of Rajpal Yadav; great performance is a must-watch film.
