Generally I have a low opinion of the average run of the mill movies which get released by Bollywood or the other Tollywoods. They generally run on a hackneyed, beaten-to-death formula. But a few of them are gems. "A Wednesday" by Neeraj Pandey is one. It is a gripping thriller about a wednesday when a series of incidents changes the lives of all those involved.The movie starts with a phone call to the police commissioner of Mumbai (played by Anupam Kher), about 5 bombs placed at various locations in Mumbai. The caller (Naseerudeen Shah) gives extremely detailed instructions about how to release known terrorists. From then onwards, the movie progresses into a gripping thriller, with many twists and turns to a very satisfying conclusion. The tempo of the film is maintained till the end, which is very rare. Most movies lose their tempo after a good start, but not this one. A definite must watch.
Five Stars any day...
