I have never watched a movie like this. The direction of the movie was superb all credits to Meghna gulzar for giving us such a wonderful film and irrfan khan was as always giving gossebumps with his acting and my favourite Neeraj kabi just stunning.

A wonderfully conceptualized murder mystery putting an eye-opening twist on the careless investigative methods of some Indian police personnel. Ashwin Kumar (Played by Irrfan Khan) is called in to investigate as part of the central investigation bureau, with the politics in bureaucracy obstructing justice to the verge of ridiculing every theory on the sensational double-murder case of noida. An absolute masterpiece by Meghna Gulzar, with stellar performances by every cast member.

"Talvar" is based on Noida Double Murder Case of 2008, in which a 14 year old girl (Arushi Talwar) and 45 year old servant Hemraj Banjade) were found murdered for which the parents of the girl were convicted for life time imprisonment. The murder case gathered a lot of light in the media and still the case remains unsolved. The makers of the film should be commended for the subject they have chosen. Indeed the film makers had the guts to tell a story which many won't dare to. The story has a lot of strengths such as it exposes how the police, the first ones to reach the crime scene, work carelessly and are unsuccessful to secure the evidences. Besides, it exposes different methods of interrogation by CBI, like narcotic interrogation. The film dramatizes the names of the incident and turns into a feature film instead of documentary. Despite the strong story, the film has its weaknesses. It hasn't freed itself from the regular image of a CBI officer played by Irfan Khan. Don't know why the second phase of investigation by CBI doesn't look very interesting or convincing as the first phase. Anyway, on the aspect of the story, the film still remains disturbing yet mind blowing.Rating: 2 stars out of 4

Well, I am at a loss for words. This is a comedy, and a tragedy. You'd laugh on how stupid things are, how stupid the people are, how stupid the media is. Wanna laugh more : this is real. And here is the punchline : We all know this, everyone who has exercised a little bit of his/her own judgement and not swayed by the media propaganda knows this. But none of that matters. And we kind of expect our country and country people to keep letting us down like this now. Nothing out of the expectations here. You see the tragedy if you ever think that we could have been better. Now, something about the movie. Beautifully made. Great storyline, the way it is shown. Great actings. Irfan and Konkana have been my favorites.
