The story takes a winding and criss-cross path, which is what appealed to me the most. There is not much action, this movie is more of a thriller and suspense. To be honest, I didn't expect many turns or "decisions" taken by the characters and also that it is rather realistic and grounded apart from the cinematic freedom ofc.
You know the lead character is not gonna go bad, but the subtle acting and seriousness of Siddharth goes unnoticed by many. Manoj sir was fabulous as always, maybe more in-character and subtle than Wasseypur.The editing could have been better and a few big-time action sequences could have made it more appealing to people who can't watch movies with subtle and endearing details.
For many reasons it reminded me of Blood Diamond except the protagonist doesn't die.
