This movie could've been anything, but instead it decided to become a haphazard experience. There were so many motivational dialogues, but most of them were unrelated to the main plot. The director never tried to focus on the main topic, instead the main theme could be assumed as politically motivated. Even though I am not an Indian, but I felt like the time of the movie's release the message this movie tried to give were somewhat connected. The acting were over the top, even though there were so many talented casts. The acting of the main lead was mainly responsible for the childish presentation, and I believe it was also the failure of the director as he was responsible for giving OK to the final cut. The main lead, who was portrayed as the representative of the youth, for no apparent reason,became a finder of truth from a fame hungry journalist. The facts were represented poorly, the last line-"the authenticity of all the facts displayed in the film cannot be verified" simply shows how much failure the project was. In a nutshell, it neither had the potential to become an investigative/conspiracy thriller, nor enough smartness to become sympathy arising drama. I actually don't know what it really was.
