In this male dominated world, comes another female dominated movie
just a week after Women's Day.
A young urban married couple going to spend
their weekend in some resort in Haryana on their way at NH 10, come across a bullying
folk of men led by Darshan Kumar (who played the role of Priyanka's husband in Mary
Kom) beating a girl and a boy who seemed to have flown away from their house. When
no one dares to stop them, breaking the shackles, the educated couple try to
take a stand. But the matter gets worse. The girl (sister of the man beating
her) and the boy (her lover) are killed. Now the eyewitnesses of this cruel
event are trapped and have to run away from what ends in their life's worst
nightmare. Anushka's husband in the film, Neil Bhoopalam gets hurt badly and
there remains no way better than Anushka taking the responsibility to try and
come out of this mess.
In this edge-of-the-seat thriller, Anushka is amazing in her
expressions and Neil does correctly what he is asked to. The movie is an
episode of 'Honour Killing' which throws spotlight over the rampant social
evils prevalent in this part of India including domestic violence and cruelty
against women. It takes courage for a young actress to come up with such a
movie in her debut production venture. But the Cricket World Cup and bad
weather have taken their toll on the box office collections of this movie. I
request all the girls out there to go and watch it, it will fill you up with
energy and courage.
Talking about Cricket reminds me that another line up is
getting really strong- KAHAANI, HIGHWAY, MARY KOM, MARDAANI and now NH 10.
WOMEN POWER!!
