First impressions are best impressions. That's extraordinarily true as far as debutant director Rajkumar Gupta goes.
His hard-hitting Aamir, sans any of the filmi trappings or starry presences, tells the chilling story of its titular character without beating around the bush.
The desperation and havoc in Rajeev Khandelwal's body language is brilliant conveyed as he lets in the viewer through those unending hours of mental agony and physical torment.
Gupta keeps it aloof yet restrained allowing the subject's inherent brutal intensity to be bolstered by a prevalent communal discord against Mumbai's un-glamorous backdrop.
