Spins a tripartite tale around familiar Bollywood obsessions, here reinfused with new life via clever use of a Pulp Fiction structure.

Mani Ratnam's Bollywood feature has a sharp political edge that is rare in Hindi-language films.

Offers a lot more substance in both content and performance than most films, regardless of the nation of origin; that it is a product of an industry known for candy floss fluff makes it all the more noteworthy.

The kind of juicy, overwrought narrative that was once a Hollywood staple.
