another movie review-strangers

the movie might sound Hollywoodish but this self stylized whodunnit is from the stables of our very own bollywood. Friday nights for the last cpl of weeks have been potlucks and after potlucks i dont sleep too well. Trying to cut down on my food intake has meant that i am always guilt ridden for not have eaten wayyy beyond my stomach full like i used to.
But this isnt about me. This is about the movie which i watched while drinking about a gallon of orange juice(100% natural one wayy better than pepsi cola) and well it did worsen my insomnia now that i cant sleep without writing about it and quite a few other things i suddenly have on my mind, I am glad that i did watch it.
Strangers starring jimmy shergill,kay kay menon, the doe eyed bengali beauty, daughter of a Nobel laureate who doesnt know how to act nandana deb sen, sonali kulkarni and an acting talent from yester years kitu gidwani in a blink and you miss it role.
Now the thing about a movie like strangers is that it doesnt go well with the sensibilities of indian masses. While adultery is still in closet and walking out of dead relationships still not an option, a movie that shows otherwise is not going to attract too many cinema goers. But if you are looking for a glimpse of powerhouse indian cinema, a good script with oodles of twists and turns and stellar performances, this movie is one of your best bet in the last six months.
The problem with murder mysteries is that you cannot write too much and yet reveal only too little. So without going into too much details, jimmy shergill who has always been a darkhorse in bollywood has come out again with a stellar performance, kay kay menon is as always on the top of his game, nandana deb sen though an extremely pretty sight should stay out of movies and well sonali i miss u :).
I today gained two sentiments from this movie, that writing is like shitting; when you write you vent up all that is accumulated inside of you and that when you hold your breath and think that by doing so everything will come to a standstill, you always end up not holding your breath long enough

enjoy this movie guys, totally worth it!!
