Essentially a one-woman show for Vidya Balan, and what a show it is.

Kahaani of loopholes. But such creative licenses are often used under the disguise of fictions. Yet, people can't help arguing which is quite understandable. I too wish that they hadn't used the IB backdrop. Some local police force or CID would have been more appropriate. For IB involves Intelligence which would probably end up feeling insulted by this highly logical Kahaani it tells!!! Apart from that, my other concern was the incredible Acting by Vidya Balan. Of course, there are moments when we get that natural performance. If only, it were easily natural to her!!! The movie is as good as her acting. Few have compared it to Lucky Number Slevin (can't quite recall it, but am sure that the premises weren't the same) for its treatment. Maybe. I can't confirm how much it's influenced from Ruby Cairo either since I haven't seen the latter as yet. Nor am I least keen to. Kahaani in itself is enough. Worth letting go than going for, but if you've nothing else for entertainment, you've MY heartfelt condolences.

If you are thinking this is a tearjerker movie or something and are giving this a miss, you are at loss. This is one of the best thrillers to come out of Bollywood in recent times. The narration is really tight most of the times. Brilliant acting by all people in the film. About Vidya, all I can say is if she wins the National Award for this year too, it'll be a deserving win. The director has made Kolkota almost a character in the film. He beautifully captures the myriad expressions of the City of Joy. Bonus points for portraying the Intelligence Bureau officers in a rationally realistic way. Btw, we might have seen some plot elements in certain Angelina Jolie films before, but never mind. Who makes entirely original stuff these days ;)
