Review of Madaari

Madaari (2016)
5/10
Hard to believe but good to watch
21 July 2016
I like Nishikant Kamat storytelling style and I liked his other films. His other films like "Force " was a good film and "Drishyam" was a very good film. But after these two good film he delivered a underperformed poor film which is "Rocky Handsome". But "Madari" sure surpassed his previous two ventures "Force" and "Rocky Handsome". I want to say this type of story is very fair choice and very rare for Bollywood cinema. Actor like Irrfan Khan is always good to watch in the big screen and I enjoy his acting. I felt sometimes that his overconfidence may be harmful for the roll but after complete the whole movie I want to say he is the perfect choice. Low budget movie, story dependent plot, no superstar cast… that all created very good environment for Irrfan and Nishikant also. This is a very enjoyable movie for low expectation holder audiences.

I already said that I like Nishikant Kamat's storytelling style and I like his movie's fast paced tone. But this movie may be had some shortage of pace and have some continuity problem. The director and Irrfan has done good job but screenplay has some basic problems like believable incidents and the consequences of one subplot after one. These two cause a huge problem which may be turned this movie into a commercial failure. Otherwise if you want to watch a good thriller and want to enjoy good acting, this movie will be the most fair choice for you.

After all this is a revenge story but remember this is not a typical one. This story is about Nirmal Kumar (Which is played by Irrfan) and how he takes his revenge against the social system and mainly against the politics. Actually Dirty and Corrupted politics will be appropriate term. You are may be thinking that it is not fresh and you already watch dozens of this type of movie but remember this is not typical routine movie. The story is true and there are lots of twists and suspense. Sometimes I was get confused that, "Really ….This was happened in real????. Some incidents really hard to believe and the editing and screenplay failed to convince you at those points.

Performance wise Irrfan was good, Jimmy Shergil was also good. Direction of Nishikant Kamat was above average, screenplay and editing was also above average and other technical aspects are above average.
