This movie was supposed to talk about women power revolution. At some points it does. But what actually it focuses on, is the age old common slogan in India that our women are familiar with. A slogan which has been injected in their mind by our society since the ancient age....."NO MATTER WHAT...WOMEN MUST KEEP HOLD OF THEIR PATIENCE. "Your life, your relations, your career, your identity....no matter what is at stake....if you are a woman....you have to compromise; you have to crucify yourself like Akira did. Now that's the ruling order of man empowered society and this film intentionally or unintentionally supports that, which is shame. The story over emphasizes on women patience than women empowerment and it certainly has crossed it's practical limit.

Movie had nothing new to offer. The pacing was at its worst. Acting was good by Anurag kashyap and sonakshi. But other than this there is not much to appreciate. What's good.. 1. Acting - Anurag and sonakshi. 2. 1st half of the movie. 3. Dialogues - mainly Anurag kashyap's. 4. No extra song or romantic angle. 5. Konkarna sen 's cameo. What's bad. 1.Jumbled Second half. 2. One dimensional character. 3. Slow Pacing. 4.Preachy narration. I didn't expected this from A.r. murgadoss. But happy with performance of sonakshi. At one point in the movie you are shocked how family members of sonakshi send her to mental hospital without any reason. On the whole a disappointing meal.

It's a film about girls harassment on the way to school and upto what level people can suffer for this dirty act. The film starts with the story of a young daughter who is the witness of acid attack to a girl on the street while going to school. During interrogation by the police only she came forward to be the witness. After that her life started being miserable by the friends of the criminal. Through the motivation by her father she learned martial art to save herself. During saving herself from the same kind of acidic attack accidentally the boy who attacked her, burnt his face by acid. The prosecution starts and Akira suffered her 3 years student life in the juvenile rehabilitation home. After releasing from home it is showed that her father passed away & her only brother not keeping any contact with the family as family not accepted her love and he settled with her love in the Mumbai after marriage. But while he was unable to bring up his newly born child he called her mother repeatedly to come Mumbai and stay with him. Akira was reluctant to go to Mumbai and told her mother that the boy who never called up last few years suddenly calling themselves only to use his mother as servant. But her brother came to their village and both of her brother & mother convinced Akira through the college principal that studying in Mumbai will be better for her academic career. She shifted to the college hostel and concentrated on her studies. The ACP and few police officers in the Mumbai police branch showed highly corrupted and for the stealing habit of one of the students in the college where Akira was studying, again brought her life in danger. Inspite of her wish to concentrate on the studies by the coincidence and nature Akira went through the life like hell. The character Akira shown different compared to common girls and this kind of nature we can find in our society very rare. The trauma agony suffering she went through should be felt by the common audience. The acting of Anurag Kashyap is outstanding in the centre role as ACP Mumbai police branch and found flawless. Very few in the film industry has the caliber to act at this level and I can't think any otherone in the this role right now. All other actors and actresses maintained their quality. Good fight sequence. All over a good film to see.

If you likes sensible movies then this movie is surely not for you. If you want unnecessary entertainment, you can waste your money. The Only thing Good about the movie is Sonakshi's and Konkana's Acting. There are many holes in the story lines and there are many stretched scenes which breaks the feeling to continue the movie. Maximum of the scenes of this movie is Dramatic and Unreal, like with no issue a boy was going to attack akira with knife and she was the God of fighting she can handle everyone at a time. You can easily guess what is going to happen? Like 3 police officers were going to kill 3 person one of them is akira. The movie has just started and it was sure that she is not going to be killed and that escaping scene is stretched for more than 15 minutes. I have given 2 starts and that's all for acting. Since I watch sensible movies. I gave this 2 star but some people don't go for logic they just go for watching their fav actress and enjoyment. It's your choice go and enjoy!!
