Rating:

By Jyothi Venkatesh

The film is based on the modern subject of Cybercrime which though a contemporary issue that resonates with people nowadays, is a subject that not many in the audiences will be able to fathom. However, the film’s execution falls flat, and the message is also lost in translation.

This film begins abruptly with a random man who is otherwise not connected with the proceedings of the film shooting himself, but the story picks up when the focus shifts to these three friends following the accident, but after the initial scene, the film sets out to follow three friends, Ronika (Nikita Soni), Alina (Alina Rai), and Rajat (Mimoh Chakraborty), who are on their way home when they are involved in a freak hit and run road accident and flee.

Ganesh (Yash Raj), a delivery person, knocks on their door to deliver a cake but his brief visit becomes an extended one as he reveals various truths that leave all three of them literally stunned. What I do not like at all about the film is its jarring screenplay which makes it tedious to watch, and after the intermission, the film becomes so dull, repetitive and monotonous, that you start wondering when on earth the end titles will start flashing. Debut-making director Panghaal’s writing leaves a lot to be desired and appears to be a half-hearted effort. Sadly, the film’s execution falls flat, and the message is also lost in translation.

Mimoh Chakraborty who is seen on the screen after a long time appears at ease in his role and also plays Rajat convincingly. However, his character arc could have been better written, as he seems like he is an outcast in a couple of situations, particularly while dealing with the delivery boy Ganesh.

While Nikita Soni is okay, newcomer Alina Rai who resembles Katrina Kaif hell of a lot plays her small though meaty part well. He comes in pretty late but somehow manages to steal the show when compared to others. Vrajesh Hirjee also does a decent role in the film. Yash Raj steals the show as a simple delivery boy. Though he initially makes you despise his character, eventually the actor manages to capture all of your attention.

To sum up, I’d say that it is one of those movies where the line between good and evil becomes blurry, both for the protagonist and the antagonist and it would be able to appeal only to a few people as it is a serious drama.
